That actually ain't too bad man. Just take a deep breath. Your a painter. Just use some filler and get it back to body shape and paint over it. Be thankful it was such a small hole. Tail lights are a dime a dozen at junkyards. Its not so bad, just cool off.

Well man that really sucks but looks like a fairly easy repair and tail lights are easy to come by. I say fix it man this one isnt that bad and at least your not in my shoes bought a used trans put some performance parts in it spend over 300 bucks in the parts alone and it lasted 45 miles.

Keep the car man. You better do that 4th-gen body conversion or I will forever lose all respect for you. Those Photoshops look awesome.

There's no way that thing jettisoned out if they were drilled. Something else had to have caused it, unless they weren't drilled properly.

Do yourself a favor and flip that 4th gen wing on the floor the other way. All the wing's weight on the 2 little points is not a good thing- especially if you bump it walking by it.
