Unhappy BACKED INTO AGAIN...pics

Well the first time I was backed into it was the dumb woman in a SUV. She backed straight into my car so hard that I heard the tires squeal. The damage wasn't too bad so I decided to pocked the $1100 and buy the new rims.

This is a pic of the damage from the first wreck after I filled them in with touch-up paint. There are some scratches that are hard to see in the pic. As I said it isn't very bad but the trunk won't open via the driver's seat, only via the key hole on the trunk door = the latches are misaligned a bit but not too badly.




NOW TODAY'S damage is a bit more substantial... A 16 year old girl at my school backed into the fender. I wasn't out there at the time but thank God she stayed out there and waited for me. She was so scared but I played it cool because like I said; this just happened to me a few months ago. We got a school cop out there in the cold pouring rain and helped us fill out the papers. When her dad showed up he was PISSED. She was driving his black 06 Honda Civic and its driver rear trunk, bumper, and tail light were cracked.

Pics of my damage...

atleast she stayed there or you were there.

my mr2 got hit twice, one before and one after paint and no one stayed. Guy after paint hit a nice deep scratch in bumper and must have sat on my hood with pants with a button on it and scratched it up more.

but, your damage is far more serious than mine was.

sorry to hear about your unfortunate mishaps ...

Sorry about that man. At least she stayed though.
But still, how fast was she backing up? Thats a pretty big dent.

Sorry to hear but I'm glad she stayed also. My previous car was hit BAD twice, by CO-WORKERS. Each at a different job years ago. I had to go through drama to get my money and video tapes (thank jebus for cameras) since they both didn't admit to it <_<. Hope everything goes well for ya this time.

I got hit once at work by some D-bag that worked down the hall. He wouldn't admit to it, they never do. Another person cracked my passenger side mirror, a good buddy of mine accidentaly gave me a pretty hefty door ding once, and he told me about it (), I told him not to worry about it, hell I wasn't even mad, he was about in tears because it was a Lexus though

All 3 of these at work within.......... 6 weeks, I'd say? After that I started parking in the absolute last spot in the lot.
