So now I have this 6 inch gash over the passenger side tire (the plastic piece has a decent gouge) and some scuff marks on behind the tire on the metal. Any suggestions on fixing it?

depending on how bad it is, I'd probably make an insurance claim and let a pro do it.

I called Progressive, I'm going to have them quote me a price, then I'm taking it to Maaco to have them look at it. Just sucks. I've owned her about 2 and a half weeks now
