The wall hurt my car :( Updated w/pic of door UPDATE: Finally got a picture of the door. I just got my car back today after a week of it being at the shop. Unfortunately I have to go back tomorrow and have a bunch of things looked at that I do not approve of.
Well I did the dumbest thing I could have possibly done. I was working in the left side of the 2 car garage, changing my oil. I usually work on the right side. Well when I am working on it and back out, I let the door hang open a little. Well today that bad habit came back to haunt me. My drivers side door caught the wall right next to the garage door
. The door panel was fine. Minor scratches down the edge. The part that goes around the window, not so lucky. It bent straight up. DIdn't break the glass but moved it. After that I had to take a 5-10 minute drive to the body shop holding the door closed with my left hand (ya it wouldn't close), and steering and shifting with my right. Thank god I'm tall and am talented at driving with my knees. So ya I'm none too happy today 
.
IN A NUT SHELL... I was working on the wrong side of the garage. I left my door open while backing out. Door caught the wall. Crushed the top of the door and the wall. Me=Pissed.
I was too pissed to take pics before I took it to the shop. I will post a pic of the wall tomorrow.
