What you really need to do is taking some sort of driving class where they actually teach you how to drive.. That's like the second time in the last month you've either backed into a car, or bumped someone elses car...

Hate to tell you, but there is no such thing as a paint shop that is both cheap and good. You get what you pay for.

Maaco in lynchburg, decent work for cheap prices.

Cheap or good, pick one of the two, you won't get both.
