Bad day for FR-S

I was shopping at FM last night, after come out from the store. Saw a big paint scratch on the back of my car. Could be from a shopping car or from someone's else car.

I already call my insurance to claim this. Anyone know some good paint shop at Portland area???

I wish you a speedy recover! That had to be a car...no shopping cart could do that. Another hit and run...

How were you parked? Maybe someone backed up to much?

I parked at a empty spot with no car next to me when I got there. Guessing could be a SUV backup to my car..... hated those "hit & run" people...no responsibilities what so ever.

This is my worst nightmare.

I spend at least 5min parking my car just right so my spot mate next to me doesn't even have the option of opening their door into my car.

the oem paint is easy. just get some really fine sand paper to make it flush. Plus it will probably be cheaper if you do it yourself.
