1st and only was a small scrape from a parking barrier under the front bumper on a road trip to the Tail of the Dragon. Well worth the minor damage....

Hurricane Sandy last October. Big branch fell onto my parked car and left a few bumps. Can't see from a distance, but visible when you're close up. It was insanely windy!

Day 5 of owning the car

Insurance totaled it, turned around and bought a Firestorm. DEFINITELY learned my lesson and my ego has been in check since then. Just crossed the one year mark of ownership, and no accidents!

That kinda looked like mine after the deer

About a week after getting my frs I backed in to the huge rusty raw steel contraption know to sone as a front bumper of a lifted redneck truck leaving a gamestop (no damage, still left a note). Luckily it was high enough to only bust my tail light. I've since bought a new one and back out of parking spots veryyyyyyy slowly especially whenever my gf is making white noise...

Yesterday night some one decided to hit my rear bumper on the driver side. No dent just scrapped the thin paint off. Just need some paint and it will be all fixed.

Someone kicked up a good size piece of tire on the freeway and it hit my bumper at +70mph. It knocked in the bottom center mesh grill on one end, and left some rubber marks. The grill popped back into the tabs, and the rubber came off with some elbow grease and wd40. Glad it wasn't worse!

2 very very minor half dime sized dents about a dime size apart on my lower drivers side quarterpanel that I recieved on a very rainy day by someone. I chalk it up to someone slinging their door open to go sprint through the rain and then did it again getting back in. Only noticeable at certain angles and I'm sure it was an accident so I was only bitter for a couple days.

Almost a month and a half later, I no longer have to worry about the scratch that truck left on my bumper... I got rear-ended today. Looks mostly cosmetic, but as you know with any collision, damage on the surface can mean worse things.
