Dude, it's a CAR. Metal, plastic, glass... Now if your wife or kid got hit and was in the hospital with possible brain damage and might not be able to recognize you or take care of themselves for the rest of their life, then yeah, that's something to be worried about. But a car?

Then again, maybe my priorities are all screwed up and I secretly hate myself, and that's why I drive this:

haha..i hited my own BBQ Charcoal Grill when i had 10 miles on it. i just touched it up paint and call it a day. it bothered me and thought about getting it repainted but not worth it for $300-$500 for such small damage. i eventually get many rockchips on it anyway.

Yup.

Had many near hits, one time going high XX speeds, and I wish to believe I was saved by the color of the car lol

The day after my first oil change:

It took 5 weeks to get her back. And then longer cause the repair shop left runs in the paint, added a new dent, scratched my interior, etc.

Then the day after I get it back at work:

She has since been hit 3 more times. Once in my own driveway. 2 hit and runs...I'm on my third rear bumper. But I still love her. We've been through hell. But she's mine.

Well so much for my colour theory.

snidd111 · 08-21-2015, 09:00 PM

Ya the first hit she said she didn't see it...she backed up in a culdesac so far from the driveway she made a uturn to make a left... Teen girls and their daddy's SUVs....

The good news is the paint stood up surprisingly well. Apparently it is just small surface area contact we need to worry about.

There are at least two threads of compilations on here someplace. They are depressing though.

mine is really minor
But that is damaged just the next day after pick up, with only 100 KM on it! The film protector was only removed for less than 30 mins !!

By a black GT86, which were reversing and did not stop and know I was here, the driver said :" I checked the reverse camera but there was blank ?!!"
