    I got my R/T DY Chally 12/12/17. Didn't even have it a full 24 hours, drove it to work, and some idiot truck driver ran into it with a semi!! It's been 2 weeks now and I'm still trying to get an estimate to fix it and the company I work for to pay every penny. Had some juice box that works in an office laughing it up like it was a joke. I told him you think it would be funny if I came in tomorrow and shot the MF'er that ran into it? He lost his smile real quick.. Owner trying to get his paint guy to fix it, and I'm not even trying to hear that.. Can't believe this s##t, wanted a Chally since I saw it as a prototype in 2008.. Un-f'n-believable..

    You are a lot nicer than I would be. For most of us our Challenger’s are our dream cars! Hell I like my car more than some azz hats I know!

    Yellow is one of the hardest colors to match, took a custom painter 5-6 tries to do my hood.
    In some types of light it is dead on other types it is a bit lighter. Also the number of clearcoats is important.
    Good luck

    As a shooting sports enthusiast I must add something to this. Sorry about your car but in this day and age you can never make remarks about shooting in the workplace. Never. Not ever. You could’ve been escorted off the property and had much bigger problems than a dent.

    It’s sucks I know. I was in your shoes and some when I got my car. No thanks to the dealership of all places. It will get fixed that’s a fact. Just keep calm it’s not worth your job or prison.

    So sorry man, I had an enferno red charger 2006 got side swiped by a TOy camera. That car saved my wife’s life. But the back to it 1.the paint on this had 6 different factory runs. 2 only right front fender tire and doors had to be done (lol) nope. $5,000 dollar estimate cost the paint and body shop 9,000 painted 3 times never match 5th time they gave in and painted the whole car. 3months late rac n pin started to go. Now you got hit by a semi hmm I’d look into under chassy stuff like get an alignment. Paint cracking ,camber twist and such. The semi could do more damage even in a parking lot fender bender than you think. And Good luck .

    This. I get it, you were just expressing anger and made an outlandish statement, but holy shit NEVER make that specific statement.

    Being an avid shooter and 2nd Amendment advocate, you should never make a remark about shootng someone. In todays day and age it could land you in a lot of hot water and/or jail.
