RWebb, nope, no pictures. At least not of the outside of the car, which is what would matter....
Kevin, your suggestion didn't come off as you implying an "honest mistake" especially after I repeated several times that I had it professionally adjusted. It sounded like...drum roll...you just thought I was FOS.
I don't have to read my own post carefully to know what it says, I wrote it
Thanks for the suggestion though. I called the body shop owner AFTER I posted this thread, not before, and specifically after your response and before my long winded rant. If you'll read my last post carefully, you'd notice that I said that the compression of the gaps could have been caused, by the energy transfer of the accident, due to bolts/sheet metal that worked itself loose during the course of normal operation. This is in contrast to your statement that the bumps/potholes were the direct and only cause of the gap compression. Do you understand that difference? I know reading comprehension isn't everyone's forte.
And, by the way, you didn't offer much as an opinion besides "I don't think that accident could have done it." You, unlike my boss, never mentioned that the bolts/sheet metal could have simply worked loose; which is exactly the type of other reasonable explanation I was looking for.
As for where I was, I generally have an active life outside of this BBS. Specifically, I was studying Differential Equations, drinking beer/whiskey and loosing money at the horse track. Hell of a weekend.
