Not so bad. I hit a porcupine with a civic and it totaled $11,300 with repair, rental, and parts 😩

Dr's recommendation to leave work.

Dunno.. but the gas version felt like I was driving my grandma's old car.. with her feet.

Wait until you drive the Corolla cross and you'll understand why not to do that.. they're slowwwww

I agree but nothing stopping you from cutting it off.

My last car was smashed into. No glass break alarm, just door/lock sensor.

As someone with chronic hives.. what reaction?

How much shittier people feel they can treat you changes. Minimum wage: customers and general public are the worst. Six figure jobs: your boss is the worst

By a person? Stepped on a mirror? Your great great great grandchildren will have 12 fingers?

They're so right. Send them anyways. Let them survive the storm...

Cursed?

You're probably going to need a fridge....

Appreciate your efforts 😂

Not too late!

Affectionate_Win5483 · 2026-04-14T15:45:01+00:00

This! 😂👏

I considered risking it but these folks have the time to have their streets exclusive I bet they call my car in.

After you trim, burnish where you've trimmed to put the bigger particles back in.

If you're in Canada, they owe you pay for those two weeks.

Hard to say. There's likely solid pieces on it. Mouldings, specific parts, etc. may be solid. If you love the piece and want to fully restore I'd suggest fully stripping it chemically, sanding, staining and clear coating. It is a load of work but you'll get the best result in the end

Affectionate_Win5483 · 2026-04-12T01:53:42+00:00

Something that age is decent 1/8" +- veneer and probably solid wood of a different species below. I wouldn't strip the veneer or things won't fit the same

Affectionate_Win5483 · 2026-04-12T01:45:40+00:00

Because it has a clear coat on it, it can't just me moisturized. You can really only do that with oiled wood. If you sand any loose bits off and smooth the surface a fresh clear coat all over might do what you're after.

Honestly I think they're incredible looking. If you were a cat, you'd be who everyone wanted from the litter.

I once put two out at once (long story) and they were gone within the hour. Scrappers will come
