Angry What is wrong with people?

So today I walk out to my car and find out that some jackass hit it. They hit the bumper and took some paint off and left some very deep scratches. At least the bumper isn't cracked, but it's still frustrating. And of course, there was no note left. Assholes...

It looks worse in person, but you get the idea.

Yeah, definitely could be worse. Cheaper to just repaint than to replace the whole bumper I guess...just REALLY irritating.

I feel your pain... Your car actually matchs my STI now... I actually just more or less said "F" it and moved on, because you could hardly see it if you aren't looking for it. The mark is in the EXACT same spot though.

My car just looks a little more WRC now.

Well my friend does wet sanding and has fixed many scratches/chips on his so I'm going to buy some paint and hopefully he can fix it or at least make it less noticeable. It doesn't look that bad in the picture but it is very apparent in person. Pisses me off. Plus it's on the driver's side so I see it everyday.

let us know how it turns out... touch up work can be very difficult and often doesn't turn out all that great, so I hope you don't wind up having to repaint Hey, if nothing else, that color matching wax from Turtle Wax (get the blue one, lol) really works pretty well to mask chips. You've just got to keep it waxed after that...

People, in general, are fucking idiots. I watched some lady rub her door on my car while she was digging her fat ass around for something. When I said something, she was like "So?" They have no respect. I can see how some people snap and go crazy over small shit. It just all builds up.

Thankfully her door had the rubber guards on the edges or I would have probably stabbed her face-wise.
