My wife threatened to do that to my 911 last year, it's amazing how fast you can bring someone back from the dark side when the safty comes off. I hate to see any car suffer from the mistakes of the owner. Simply chicken $hit.

On second look, it looks like the owner was attempting to de-amber the headlights and got frustrated and a bit carried away.

It still would work for a track car; pound those dents out and it would look good from fifty feet. Nobody's ever failed tech for dents, at least not small ones. And I agree, it would definately get your competitor's attention.

Ouch!! That had to hurt!!! I think, actually, I know I would have been sick to my stomach if I ever saw that happen to my ride......


It was probably the last mod he purchased that made her do it!

I posted this just for fun, but in seriousness I agree with the posters who think the owner did the damage himself. The job is just too thorough. It looks like an insurance fraud case to me.

I think it was a bunch of berserk women who listened to Carrie Underwood's song just a few too many times.

Ya know, I think I dated her? The girl who did the car job..... not Carrie.
