BrownBoy Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 some [insert preferred french] scraped my car at school today. It's pretty bad, not something to get rid of w/ Scratch-x and a good wash. Why? WHY ME?! I'm always careful to make sure I'm not hanging into another spot, make sure I'm at the end of a row, and w/ some free zone on the side, etc. Whoever scraped me shouldn't be driving! All I know is that it was someone driving a gold car... Time to go out and try to wash it and use some scratch-x...any recommendations? Since my car is silver, it prolly shouldnt be too noticeable, since it only scratched up the clearcoat, but there is one spot where the paint is just gone. I didn't want to have to repaint the bumpers already! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest *Jedimaster* Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 The reason why is people suck. Sorry to hear it. I like to think that people who do that will have something twice as bad happen to them down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starlabs Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Sorry bro, I totally feel your pain! And anger! If it's any consolation silver IMO is the least noticeable when it comes to scratches and scrapes... -=- Livin life at 140 BPM -=- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtkao Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 i feel your pain man... both doors at the passenger side got scraped couple days ago also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kerste Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I always park as far away as I can from any other cars for that exact reason. Hopefully since it's silver it won't show. I had all kinds of marks like that on my old Civic, but you couldn't really tell because the paint masked it pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mach_six Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 I actually parked my LGT in NYC but it was by Seaport. I always take my Corolla out and my Forester. My Corolla took a few beatings including a sideswipe from an old man in Harlem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrownBoy Posted October 20, 2005 Author Share Posted October 20, 2005 well. I used Meguir's ScratchX to get most of the smaller scrapes out; there are several deep into the clearcoat type scratches left. Luckily, the silver does mask it pretty well. I'm just sooo ticked off. I know it was a gold car, so Im gonna be looking for a gold car w/ scratches.:mad: I really cant afford to fix the scratched I have though. I just spent all my extra money on some other mods. It'll be a lil bit before I can get it fixed. OH well, it's not too bad. I'm more pissed how the person just scraped me and took off. How did they have the heart to scrape up such a nice and shiny car? My car is ALWAYS clean, and I saw the scrapes from several rows down. (Tells ya how bad they were) It's not too noticeable now, so I'm a little relieved. This is one of the times I think...Thank GOd I didn't listen to my dad and get the Obsidian Black Pearl that day.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motion_157 Posted October 20, 2005 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Sorry to hear...I feel your pain 'cause 2 weeks ago my passenger side mirror was kicked off and they left a nice little dent on my door. Some punks went down the whole block and kicked off all the mirrors. $1400 canadian to fix the damage, but I'm going through insurance so I'm only out my deductible of 250, but I still want to kill someone. Your scratches came out not too bad though, but we're never happy unless it's back to the way it was before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
