Default Lucky me...

So some a**ho** thought it'd be funny to shoot a bb/pellet gun at my car while driving around town. Pretty messed up, this is the only dent in my car now.

Well the pic looks like there's a hole but it's just a dent. Nope I didn't see who did it, I was a light and once it turned green 3 secs later when passing traffic I hear a loud tink...pulled over and yep some idiot shot my car while driving. Made a police report and later that night my buddy told me how some one else made a report as well but their car got shot at the mall. I'm really hoping they catch this guy so I don't have to drive around with this dent...it's killing me!

Damn man... That sucks! Would be nice if the other guy that made the report was somewhere where they had cameras. I'd beat someone's *** for that ****.

If they don't find him, ur insurance will cover the damage under vandalism and it won't raise ur rate since it wasn't a moving accident that was ur fault.

Definitely looks like a .22. I shot a tv in my garage with a .22 from 7 feet away, it went through the LCD tv, and hit the metal door behind it, and it looked exactly like that.

Good looking car, why's it sitting for a year? Hopefully you didn't have to wear pink for 30 days.

I like the monochrome look you've got going--the black and white calipers in particular.

Thats a .22 round. I don't think thats a BB at all. That doesn't look like a dent. looks like a hole.

Well I got the car fixed about a month ago...just now had the time to put some pics up. I also had them smoke the lights for me as well since the cheap VHT stuff was fading. Unfortunately I can't drive the damn thing for a while now =(
