u can see that there is no gap between the bumper and the trunk and there is more things they did not fix right the paint is not very good in some places but it matches the old paint and u cant tell on the pictures the black lines are where the car was repainted it was repainted both sides and the trunk and new bumper tail lights and exhaust

I'm not suprised at all the blending that was needed. bummer. Repairing the kink in the quarter panel is what caused all that. Did you back into a wall, or did someone hit it? The pics don't show any inperfections, but thats to be expected.
At least they didn't misspell "Kompressor"

I think it looks just fine.
Yea you know that there is a problem, but 99% of the people on the road don't and never will as long as you dont tell them. And even if you did, a good portion would not be able to tell. I think as long as it does not affect the safety and functionality of the vehicle, and looks like it's supposed to, or was supposed to, then it's all good.

Bad luck sucks!
I got my rear bumper scratched when I was parking. My retarded friend decided it was a good idea to pull into the same drive way as I was backing up. So I hit his CRX bucket
I had just smoked my taillights the day before

Brooo, I was just in an accident with my baby, my C240 4Matic. Not my fault either. Ironically, it was my brother's fault. We were coming back from Chicago when the lane merged from 3 to one cause of construction. I'm leading in the inner lane. A guy merges safely between us and my bro speeds up and hits the guy in an SUV. The SUV then hits MY car. Some minor damage in the rear. Low speed tho so it's just scratches and dents but still, I hate it!
Just want u to know you're not alone in this...

C240
same thing happened to my 02 C240
My dad borrowed my car to take my sister to the airport, and on his way home a woman who apparently had to pee rather bad, rear-ended my car at a stop sign..looked much worse than these pics..The trunk wouldn't close so I put duck-tape on it to keep it closed..
Waited a month for an appointment for a MB approved body repair shop (only one in Oregon). Waited a month for them to fix the car...with only 4k miles on the car, and $5k in damage...amazing.
Repairs look good! These things don't take a crashing well, all which is for human benefit..

my head hurts from trying to read all this guys run on sentences not to mention he doesnt use capital letters or any punctuation at all how can you guys read this its just like a bunch of words mixed together and call it a sentence and there are no paragraphs its like so hard to read sucks about the accident though and the paint does not match but you cant tell it was in an accident otherwise good luck when you try to sell it
