Speaking of lemonade, now it is the perfect time to think of grafting on an 08 front end.

Sorry to hear about it but after all, it's just a truck. Main thing is nobody was hurt in the accident, right?

Exactly, its great no one was hurt. But the accident happend almost a week ago and i am happy that my bro hasnt had any pains or sores after the accident. So i talked to the guy that owns the body shop today and since i know him very well, he said theirs a good chance that we could fix the truck. Im just waitn for the estimate to see how much cost the damage is. Once i get the esitmate ill know more

First, glad your brother was not injured.

Otherwise, looks like that will buff right out. A little duct tape and a shower curtain from wal-mart and you are back on the road.

Best of luck with the repairs.

When I saw this thread, all my heart sank a little because I remember how distraught I was when I wrecked mine. Lucky for me it was fixable, but I feel your pain brother......

Glad no one was hurt.

After i figured out my bro was ok, i was very distraught. My buddy and bro nv saw me get teari eyed hahaha But luckly since i do all the landscapin and lawn care for my local body shop, am very close to the owner, and went to HS with his son and still hang out with his son, the ex has a very good chance. But this will be the favor of all favors haha

And myblkex, the mirrors arent in good condition, my sis hit somthin with one and my bro also hit somthing. What can i say? everyone in my family besides my rents are obsessed with the Ex hahahah
