Ok, so, I was just on my way to pick some one up at 5am, just taking it easy, wasn't doing anything stupid, car was traveling downhill on a turn, I was only doing 30ish km, the read wheels lost traction and I guess I was too slow to react, I let go of the accelerator and it just took me for a slow spin. If it wasn't for a pesky bus-stop nothing would have happened. All of the electrics still work etc...it's purely cosmetic. The dent could probably be pulled, but realistically I think i'm looking at a new door now, will have to ring around to some panel-beaters and get a quote.
not looking forward to when the Wife wakes up...
