It happens to even the best of us...that perfect storm where EVERYTHING goes against you and you end up with a dinged/dented/scraped coach! Yeah it happened to me on our last trip over Thanksgiving. The combination of a VERY tight parking lot in LA near the convention center, combined with trying to exit in the dark and not having enough people watching in the right places equals a scraped rear end! Very irritating! The visit to the LA car show was very good though as well as Thanksgiving in San Diego!
The damage is to the rear fiberglass nose cone, right on the passenger corner. It is only scraped and didn't really break through the fiberglass, so I am probably only looking at paint and not a lot of fiberglass work. I do hope I can avoid painting the entire rear nose cone though.
Unfortunately I don't live near the RV Mecca's of Oregon or Florida. :-) So does anyone have any knowledge or references for a shop in Salt Lake City? I do also get to Sacramento and the Bay area fairly often and I could schedule a trip and take the coach if there is a great shop there.
I may post a few pictures once the bruise on my ego heals a bit. :-)
Thanks!
