Doug- I was going to offer you my only pristine one off of one of my parts cars, but unfortunately, I hit a 2 point buck (4 points total!)
last weekend, and now have a serious dent in the left front of my car, as well as ruined trunk lid to deal with. I might have to use
the backing plate I was going to offer you to deal with my "incident"- I'm still so mad about the whole thing I still havent taken off whats
left of the headlight bezel to see if I need to replace the backing plate also. Whats really annoying to me is that I could easily straighten
out most of the dent in the damaged area, if I could just get the trunk lid to unlatch! Anyone have any ideas?
Anyways, very sorry to read about your loss, I understand!
