Since this was in a state park, you should be able to recoup the total value for the car on the parks insurance. They are liable for this type of damage. A fiend of mine had a branch fall on his motorcycle in New York’s Central Park and with was able to recoup the motorcycles total value, he did get an attorney though.

Best of luck to you and I'm glad you weren’t hurt.

Damn trees!
They just stand there like they want to be hit.

You should be able to buff that out.

Did your AMG Monoblocks ever get separated from the carnage?

I hate to be a scavenger, but I'm looking for a set for my '99 E320 wagon.

What did you replace her with?
