as it was, did make the quarter panel buckle ever so slightly. I hit it with the rear bumper right at the mounting point.
Meanwhile the front bumper was pushed off to the left as the car slid sideways to the right on the front cross member. By that time all wheels were suspended and the car was sliding on the front cross bar (right under the IC, AC condensor and rad) and the rear bumper while bridging the ditch/gulley. This is where all the damage came from to the airdam and bumpers.
S&S has a frame puller. We'll see how it turns out...
Thanks for the paint offer too. I think it's covered though with S&S. Time, money (thank God for insurance!) and patience is all it takes now...
