OUCH, your lucky your ok. MUCH WORSE could have happened. I try to never ever ever drive behind trucks or if I cant help it i stay back like 1000 feet. They spew dirt and rock chips eat away at the paint on my beautiful hood.

Call up ur insurance agent and tell him/her about this, if you have conprehensive coverage, just pay the deductable and ur insurance company will fix your car for you and your premium wont go up. In this case I would suggest you to go to a shop you know so they can hook u up with brembo and new paintjob.

Is your car damaged at all? If it is the insurance company will fix everything for you. Call your agent and he/she'll file a claim for you, within a week the claim department will call you to set up an appointment with you to check the damage on your car, have an estimate ready for the adjuster. Again, I would highly recommend you to go to a shop you know so you get some goodies.

Hey CLK Boost... do you have any pictures of your car in any forum?

By the way... are you Chinese or Korean?
