Garage Door Tried to Eat My Camaro

Long story short, my garage door tried to eat my Camaro. Anyone know of a good body shop in Cheyenne, WY or Fort Collins, CO?

That's a bummer. My lady drove her car through our garage door a while back.

That's why no one is allowed to drive my car. People just don't know how to drive sometime

I've hit my garage door on the front bumper of my Camaro like 3 times...even bent the front tag when the garage door was coming up . I need to buy another house with a bigger garage.

Mine was a simple accident. I was talking to my son while I was in my Camaro, he was in his truck in the carport. I remembered that I needed to get an ice scraper from the garage. I started backing up to go back into the garage ,at the same time my son started closing the garage. Freak accident, no one to blame. We have now made a rule, the LAST one leaving, will close the garage.

Sounds like you need to just get rid of the garage door. Problem solved.

That sucks!

I've crashed my dads car into our garage door while it was closed. My dad was on vacation when it happened. I was 15 with a drivers permit.

It happened to me. I was out an inch or so and it scrapped up my bumper and rear end when I closed it on our way to an appt in the mom mobile. Worse my wife tried two more times before I got the situation under control. $500 later and its as good as before. Now I always check carefully.

Chemical Skin in Loveland, CO. Located at intersection of Hwy-34 and US-287N. Brandon Coddington is the owner, and does some amazing work, my son says.

Take it to lennox here in Cheyenne. Both the Painter and the owner have 5 gen camaros. The painter (JIM)'s is a supercharged l99..... Definitely the right shop for that car. Do not take it to Chevy unless you Go to Laramie Gm.
