Pardon my dirty car. It's hasn't been washed in 2 weeks; parked outside. The car was shot with a pellet gun 2 nights ago but some idiots. I filled it with liquid metal and touched it up. I will post pictures of the before and after later. Afterwards, I went on a quick photoshoot. The pictures did not turn out that well, but here they are.

I am thinking of some Work Eurolines with a huge lip.

Thanks for all the comments, guys. I really appreciate them. On Tuesday night (4:09am) there was an old late '80s Chevy Caprice creeping through my neighborhood. I had just moved in 2 weeks ago to my friend's house near the OU campus. If you are wondering about the neighborhood, the houses range in the mid 100k dollar ranges and up. The car stopped right next to my car. My girlfriend and I were studying, so I looked out the window. I think they saw me so they drove off. The street that I stay on is a dead end. I decided that if they lived in the neighborhood, they would not turn back around. So I stood there for about 20 seconds, and before long, they came back around. The car was primered gray/black. The weird thing is: it had a spray painted 69on the passenger door. It also had cheap looking aftermarket foglights below the bumper. They drove off so fast I could not get the plates.

Wednesday night (3:50am) I see this white early '90s Pontiac Sunbird hauling *** out my street. I thought that was suspicious, but I could not do anything about it.

My reasoning was: if they wanted my car or wheels, it would take them ~5-10 minutes to accomplish. So I thought if I were awake, I would hear them and call the cops/stop them.

I didn't know someone would shoot it (takes a few seconds)! I think they were trying to shoot out the glass. It is on the pillar between the driverside window and windshield. I think it's from a strong pellet gun. I filled the dent with Loctite liquid metal. Then I sanded it with 400, 600, 800, 1000, 2000. Then I applied some touchup paint. Then waited for it to dry and buffed it with some polish and wax. Here are the pictures.

Bare metal dent:


Filler dry:

My mom is driving my car presently. I am driving her 2000 Honda Odyssey! Sorry for the long post.

very very nice car. i love GS's

being a photography nerd.. the border HAS to go. it disrups continuity no matter how much you want to argue it looks 'good' or 'frames' it.

Awesome looking GS, my last landlord had the same car and I used to have to move it around in/out of the garage at times, loved the interior in it. Sucks about the goons messing with the car, but I have to ask what are you doing up at 4am on a regular basis?!?

Photos look great to me, although the luminosity histogram will be interesting... car looks stunning.

Oh yeah, you should get a bulletproof E65.
