Well I was on a detour going around a sink hole in Alabama on I-65 Northbound and about 20 or so people slammed their brakes at once and I'm the guy that bumps the person in front of me's bumper. Not too bad...but it still SUCKS!!!Here's a picture of the damage done. It was a GMC Envoy DenaliHere's what happened to the VibeHere's my damage after me doctoring it up (Still more to do)
that stinks...even after all the accidents I see I too am guilty of following too close sometimes...Remember everyone leave at least one car length for every 10 miles per hour youre going, and even more once you get up to 50mph and more..and dont forget to time your distance counting the seconds apart the car in front of you and your car pass the same object, always drive defensively you never know if a cars going to go out of control or stop suddenly being it from the person having a heart attack, seizure, wheel popping off, animal/child dartn out, etc.looks pretty good after your doctoring

Well if you look at the 2nd picture under the bottom point of my headlight you'll see a hole I'm thimkim bout grinding it down to make it smooth then using plastic epoxy to hide it then fixing the paint. Anyone with body work experience think that'll work?
I had the unique experience of being at a large multiple vehicle accident like the pic above one year while I was running fire at Edinboro Fire Company while attending school, was at it for six hours straight....the accident i was at was due to combination of not just following too closely but also weather
