My poor car... was hit the other day...
...I was to go to my father's friend's house (whom had just left our house..I was a couple minutes behind him) and get a key. It has been raining like a **** out. I pulled into his driveway, saw his truck parked there, I parked behind it. I had already parked and pulled the keys out and put them into my pocket. next thing I know the thing is backing into me (I didn't see anyone in the truck..tinting). I fiddled w/ the keys and blew the horn.....too late, hit my door, shattered my window and smashed through the door. I'm fine, just pissed.

Put about a 4 inch crack in the front bumper took about 1300 for a new bumper/paint. MY OWN MOM IN MY OWN DRIVEWAY! lol and she says "i forgot you were parked behind me" LOL Do we not use our eyes to look behind us when we are in reverse anymore!? Good luck w/ the repair work.

The total cost, 2400.00.Happy ending was I was able to purchase a lightweight hood and had some mod money left over after his insurance cut me a check(found a quality shop that gave a steep cash discount).
