Are my cars cursed?
I'm not drunk or anything, I've just been working for the past 15 hours today.
But while I was out a little old lady backed into the Camaro the ONE TIME I parked it out in the street since I got the car back.
My street is cursed, I'm having the worst week ever. Now I can add this to the list of my vehicles getting nailed in the street. Last month someone nailed the S10's mirror and shattered the glass.
I CAN'T WIN!
At least she let my parents file a Police report. Guess my turds getting painted sooner then I expected.

damn that blows. doesn't matter how bad the car was hit....it was hit DAMMNIT! Good luck getting it taken care of. Maybe wait it out until the winter is over so you don't get a fresh paint job during the winter if you plan on driving it. Take the money you get from insurance and throw it into an ING or IMMIGRANT savings account and earn some interest before it's time to get it done.

That sux Alex...how bad is the damage, and where did she hit it?
I'm with Brian...if it's not too bad, take the money from the insurance, earn some interest on it, and get it painted in the spring.

Dude what do you mean "At least she let my parents file a Police report.". Whenever there is an accident your suppose to file a police report. If she left you could call the police and have her arrested for leaving the scene. I'm pretty sure that would be her fault so let her insurance pay for your new paint job.
I mean is this like some little old lady simpathy thing? I personally have no simpathy for any ******* that screws up, 99 years old or not.

Its pretty bad. You could fit your head in the main hole, then it cracked all the way to the head lights and to the fenders as well as being slightly pushed in. The old lady definitely hit it and kept backing into it. I just got home from another 16hr day so I'll inspect further tomorrow. I'm praying the hood got crunched too.
My neighbor works for Gieco and has been in the auto body business for years so hes going to work a quote for me for all new OEM parts like a hood & front bumper. Then with the check from her insurance, I'm going to pick up a used front bumper and a new Harwood cowl hood. Hopefully Ted can paint it all up for me along with my spoiler since he already has the paint at his house.

Every other jack *** that hit one of my cars was a hit & run so I'm surprised to say the least the lady actually stuck around and apologized to my parents so I don't really hate her because I was planning on re-doing the front bumper anyway.

O ok I got you. To me it just sounded like almost she didnt have to stay but the sweet old lady was nice enough to give you the courtesy of the report.

Bogus dude! Is the street the only place you can park it? Hopefully not. Never park on the street again if you don't have to.

rt 4
I got bumped on the way home on route 4 tonight. No damage to either car and the chick was real cute so i told her dont worry about it. She was getting all worked up and nervous .... i made a comment about Vw's and the women that drive them she giggled and that was that. At least somebody's car made it through combat unscathed....
