Default Idiots.

I hate people!!! This weekend when I was cleaning my car I found that 1/4 of my front bumper has been scraped, scratched, and cracked. I JUST had the damn thing repainted like 2 months ago for the 2nd time, now it will be going BACK to Xclusive (local body shop) to get it painted again. This crap really pisses me off, and the worst part, I have no idea when it happend!! I picked it up from Xclusive Thursday (fender had some clear coat peeling) and had only been to work since. Bastard people. Theres another however many hundred dollars down the drain.

Buying a DD is good advice, but we really shouldn't have to if everyone just respected other people's ****. If I were in your shoes and found out who did it, I would only be so happy to repay the favor to those ******.

The ONLY place I parked was at the mall and I was about 4 rows from the back, NOBODY around me, I have my own spot at work that is by a curb and see my car out my window, (the front is at the side walk) so I know it didn't happen there and thats everywhere I've been. Just pisses me off, bastards!

Really sorry about that man... i watched some old guy try to park a truck next to my ride and he hit my bumper and drove off i was pissed but i found him that night. its not the damage and money that pisses me off its the irresponsible people and dumbasses that really get me going. I feel your pain man, just try to be calm about the situation thats all you can do...

Damn man, that sucks. It has gotten to the point that I hate to wash my car because I know I am going to find something new i.e a rock chip, scratch, or dent. I don't even drive my car everyday, lucky if I drive it once a month.

Americans are too convenient. just park away from everything and enjoy a nice walk to where ever your going. That's proly the only time you'll get outside if your going to work.
