It may be the make America great again bumper stick...? LOL

I know you live in the Bubble, sorry, maybe to me it appears its like Maxine Waters make up; you scrape the top layer and its primer and only real deep your looking at the Dark part that does need touched up with a primer to get to smooth more than the whole areas priming really...A good blend job would be about $400 if lucky and I know black does not always match. But any color can be a little off, I had my Camaro trunk , my roof and windshield attacked by G.D. crows with walnuts two years ago..No Shhhhh,

over 5 dents and a cracked windshield and yes it does hurt your pride in your car, I finally turned it in for repair after they got the windshield. And I park now away from the street lights they sit on bombing cars and Walnut trees have been getting diseased and cut down due to infestations lately; so survival is getting better and better but bum luck just like she-ite happens..... good luck to you. Heck you could do the monster thing with the big green scratch marks and just be out that and still be kind of cool...
hope your luck changes, I know mine is SHHHHHHH......
I pretty much in my own bubble it's part with of suffering from A.D.H.D. it just sucked and I felt really disappointed In humanity....all accidents have happened while moving, i pretty much saw them run off. Then that little voice you know the one that tells you I told you so.. yeah I spend a lot of time on waxing polishing. Its a OCD about getting the wet look on the paint..

I just payed 1600$ out of pocket no money patrol car down having to use my car to work last money in the tank. Pay day comes and Bam....you kinda start to feel down why even bother anymore.
But that's just not being true to my self or wants.
So f-it I joked about it let's do it I am committed now.

I'm not in a unsafe area just a busy area I'm like 30 min walk to the Honda center in Anaheim CA. Lots a people in a rush probably alot with no insurance so hit and runs happen. Sucks but I got to move on I will be bombing more stickers on the car to match better vs a random assortment of out of place stickers.

Funny part I did have those sliver 3 claw marks on the front some had back in the day that sorta look like the energy drink monster logo. I ditched them after the second hit and run, they no longer matched anything. The trim rings for the steel wheels took all the damage same silver as the claw marks

I owned a ex cop car DIY, after that car was Walmart and 8cans of spray paint black just to get the cops to leave me alone for own in a black and white lol. I could just of used spay paint for added lazyness.

I do have a plan to better match the car.
Proper repair is in a long line of a to-do list/life list

When I think sticker bomb it has to have a flow. Like a abstract flow a shape or a feeling it's hard to say what it is. Abstract, modern, city come to mind for what would and would not work. It's hard to put in to words

These are not crappy stickers there vinyl 3m wrap grade easy on and off application. I'm tempted not to do that cars....... interesting....sticker lawout. But maybe something like this as example

I can't find any American cars......so I might be a early pioneer. Outside the usual old cars with brands of parts or track meet stickers or events.
And not counting off road folks with there trail/competition stickers for Grass Roots.

You know what might look pretty cool is if you sticker bomb the center bowtie to match the other Areas

I have plans for something like that. I am going to try sticking the stickers to wax paper 1st and cut out the shape peel and place.

I'll try to post a wider shot of how it looks now. Name:  IMG_20180819_210940.jpg

That's how I see it soon to be hitting the half mark for my payment plan on it as well lol. Once payed off this is probably going to be worth 2500-5000$ at tops lol. Prob just going to replace it with a flat 500 abarth
And the Camaro will become the project car. And no a V8 is not in it's future lol

It's a collision loss. Just for starters:
1) Maybe a $500.00 Ded or better.
2) Multiple claims = Skyrocketing premiums or cancellation upon renewal.

About 100 of those stick on fake bullet holes would look cool.

It is a very tempting offer. I'm looking for a full set with wheels I want to strip paint and polish the steal up on the lips and re paint the center black. Really run the modern idea of the classic rally wheels.

Mine will work fine for me there going to be having some modifications done to them I would hate to mess up a nice set of rings. Only one ring is messed up. Really I do appreciate it
I'm a big fan of these wheels.
