Your first accident/scratch/ding

What was your first mishap with this car and how did you get it? Did you fix it or just leave it?

I can't remember which came first but both involved my family. 1 - Throwing a football around with my brother and he hits the passenger side door, leaving a fist sized dent. Ended up getting PDR. 2 - MY dad backs up the car into the oooonly other car on the whole street. Left two minor scratches on back bumper. Didn't bother fixing that.

My buddy opened his passenger door a bit too wide and dented my driver side fender. It was a pretty small, but sharp crease on the body line. I PDR'd it, but it'll need some paint work.

Took it to get windows tinted. Tint shop owner ran it up on a curb and scratched the bottom of front bumper.

I made him repair it at collision shop. Sand and repaint.

Shop did not do a perfect job. Just going to live with it.

First weekend i had this car I went to see Zac Brown Band with my woman and came back and decided to take the long way home through back roads, well started pouring and i ended up on some shit dirt back road, had her in neutral, at about 15mph; front end washed out into the catch basin on the side. It went catch basin, then a hill onto someones yard. I hit my front right on the hill and bent my tie rod knuckle where it connects to the hub :[

Backing out of my drive way too fast and my 5axis front lip scraped a little. You can't even see it but it still pissed me off a bit.

Oh, yes, within a week of ownership. First one was inflicted by my wife (she "touched" the side with her car door, in our garage). Second one by me - I "touched" the rear fender with a rubber trash can - while the car was in our garage. The third by me, before I learned that the FR-S will NOT clear several cement parking stops.

I will have a PDR dude push out the two dents but the skinned up underside of the front bumper will go unfixed (cause I can't see it while standing looking at the car).

I'd like to say the vandalism was the first case, but I'm pretty sure there was something that happened long before that. I can't say exactly when or even how it happened, but within the first couple of months something happened to put a very hard to notice dent in the top of my right fender. You can only see it in the right lighting. The only thing I can attribute it to would be it looks like knuckles. I haven't done anything about it.

Second day, apartment maintenance backs their truck into my car. Tiny scratch in the bumper that, honestly, I won't be able to find anymore. I think it may have gotten buffed out.

Six months into ownership was my first nightmare. I was on my way to work in the morning. As I was exiting off the the freeway, I had a Nissan pickup tailing me the whole way up. I tapped my brakes to tell him to get back. He then proceeded to pass me on the shoulder of the off-ramp. He hit a a few large bumps and then collided with the side of my car. He then got to the top of the ramp and took off. I chased him down and got his plate number and called the police. Of course he denied anything to his insurance company so they were not going to help me. Eventually though, My insurance company fought it and won. I ended up getting my deductible back. But now my entire passenger side has been repainted. . One year later, I now have $2500 worth of hail damage...

A woman backed into my car in a parking lot while i was at a complete stop the second week of having the car. I saw her coming but there was nothing i can do because of the cars ahead/behind me except honk my horn. She hit my rear passenger wheel and like a dime size scratch in the fender over the wheels paint. Got a brand new wheel and they fixed the little scratch and i was driving my car a few days later but i to was hit by the curse...just thankful it was the most minimal damage u can possibly ask for in a car accident.
