So I turned in my 2000 SE today, and was ready to jump in my new 02 SE when I saw a pencil sized ding in the hood, down to bare metal. Then I find a 3" long jagged scrape along the drivers side door on the edge where the A pillar meets the roof. It looks like someone's jacket zipper scraped the hell out of it. There is also a ding above the fuel filler door.

The dealership is sending the car out to be fixed, but what a bummer. I have the full x-pel kit sitting at home to put on but it is already too late.

 

at least your tranny works

 

yeah, I not sure about how the rental car tranny is gonna hold up though, lol

 

may i suggest pillows and egg crates private message ericdwong.. he will have some ideas for you

 

 

At least you noticed before you left the dealership.

 

I was lucky to have someone with me who has a super critical eye. He found all of the problems in a badly lit lot at 6pm.
