Mine took 6 days before something fell on the hood and left a dent.

Two options: get over it (I couldn't) or get a PDR guy to come out. I paid $100 and the dent was gone. Well worth your sanity.

Less than 24 hours of ownership and some mother fucker decided to push a shopping cart into the passengerside mirror and scuffed it up. Thankfully a detailer was able to make it almost invisible.

Last Friday some fucker in some rusted out shitbox truck or suv did a hit'n'run job on my rear bumper.

Didnt think much about it when this chick got out of the car and I heard the door hit my rear fender. Couple days later, I noticed a small dent with no paint damage on the area. Pretty sure it was from that. This happened before I hit 1k miles.

Now that the 1st dent, chip and scratch are out of the way, I can enjoy driving my BRZ hard and not worry about it. I still park further away or park next to nicer cars when I'm out.

Well, Xlr8, that's too bad ....

Remember, the first ding is the most painful.

You could keep your car in the garage and just allow yourself and close loved ones get near it ...... but wait, that may not work!

The first week we had our car, my wife inflicted the first ding (with her car door) and I inflicted the second ding, with a Rubbermaid trash can.....

Like suggested above, just get a PDR dude to tap it out and move on to enjoy your new car ....

Thanks crew. I just had to vent. This is the first brand new car I've bought since 1997 and I just really wanted to enjoy it on that new honeymoon phase. I usually buy 2 year old cars with under 30K miles so I don't worry about minor dings and such. But I just had to go get this one new. I do love it.

Do we really need a thread like this every week 'OMG I GOT A 1CM SCRATCH ON THE SUPER THIN POS PAINT!!!!!!!!!!!"

We get it. You love your car and now it isn't perfect aesthetically. Boo hoo. Nobody's is. We bought a driver's car, meaning we are going to drive the piss out of it and put miles on it and get dents, scratches, and scrapes. It happens. People are careless. It happens.

I'm just tired of the same threads over and over. Can we get a newb subforum yet for posts like this? It's new to them but it's been the same for over a year for many. It's this or my airbag light goes off when i put my phone on the seat or I JUST GOT MY FRS!!!!.

The main forum should be information pertinent to the whole community, like new car specs, event info, etc. A newb forum would be the correct place for stuff like this.

Post here if you have feedback on the idea

[/soapbox]

[flame suit on]
Really a car/motorcycle forum is suppose to be about the whole ownership experience not just a spec/tech/ mod forum. So if someone gets a dent or scratch in there car they should be able to come on here and whine and bitch about it. They should have just as much right to do that as you have to whine and bitch and snivel about another scratch thread.

By the way..... Cool cry baby fit bro.
