Angry Bad news

Going to work yesterday morning....i was standing still waiting for the red light to change and all of a sudden some a**hole in a bravada suv rams right in the back of my evo!!It was an old guy... he claimed he did not see me so it is his fault, his insurance will pay for all the expenses. Now my poor baby is in the shop waiting to get fixed.....MAN IM PISSED!! Here are the sad pics.

Yep, couldn't see that bright frigging red car right on front of him huh?

That can't be cheap to fix either. I hope his insurance goes sky high. I hope you only got cosmetic damage too, looks that way.

EDIT: Looks awfully sunny for 2:18AM too!
