Pics of  damage below (links).  Much less than I feared now that I see it  
in
the daylight.  And I know who the perp is!  :twisted:  

Damage is seemingly limited to tailpipe, outer fender, slightly bent  bumper
or bracket, and the bottom of the inner fender.  The labor will  be to 
remove
it all and make it like new so the seals will hold... my  biggest fear is
that if the seals don't fit perfectly, it will leak an rust  between the
panels.  This car only has the slightest of surface rust  anywhere, and I
want to keep it that way!



Wow, Phil I wished I were closer, but unfortunately I'm on the wrong side  
of the country from you. Has the 1500 club been able to help? I know many of 
 them use the same body guy, as he also doesn't like filler. Like Jim said, 
make  sure BOTH sides of the repaired areas get painted, and he's right 
about the  beading, as it'll crumble or be short once removed.
