Just need to vent...and introduce myself.

Hi all,

this is my first post in TacomaWorld, although I've creeped around here for a couple of months. I purchased my very first pickup and my very first Tacoma back in February (2017 TRD Off-Road Access Cab in black). I've really been enjoying doing some small mods (holy hell I love Meso!) and taking Mortica (truck's name) up into the Utah mountains. I've found a lot of useful advice and tips on this site from you all, so thank you very much.

Alas today, the driver of a Ford Edge carelessly backed right into Mortica's passenger side (their fault and citation). Thankfully no human injuries, although 'Tish is pissed. This is the first time I'll be dealing with repair work, so I'm really hoping that I can find a shop that'll make her look like new. Plus I get to deal with the insurance people. Yay.

Anywho, thanks for letting me vent.

 

First, Welcome to TW.
You have a good looking truck there, nice.

Sorry to see it was hit.
I’d look at the reviews of local body shops.
Surely there is a good one you can have do the work for you.

 

Welcome aboard Ben

 

Welcome to TW.
Steel bumper time. Make the next one really regret that mistake.

 

Welcome to TW!

 

Welcome to TW! That’s a real bummer but thankfully the damage doesn’t look too bad.
Maybe time to upgrade to some blacked out headlights..
