damnit, i've had the first ding in my kombi 🙁
I was trying to get into a rather tight park with a car on one side and a concrete pillar on the other. i missed the car (luckily) but the concrete pillar won out 🙁
boohooarama!!!

there isn't that much damage and i should be able to get it fixed fairly cheapyly so things aren't that bad. i just hate it when things like this happen!!!:cry

chuck some pics up of the damage so we can say 'ooooh glad its not me!'

vandals attacked mine; kikked in the rear guards, sidesteps, and smashed my drivers side window. as well as graffitied my garage door.

point is things like this happen to everyone, so dont get too bummed, you've just joined the club!

Daniel - hoping his sob story made you feel better

hey dodge. we backed our split into a metre round pillar holding up winston hills shopping centre. nudged it with such force that everyone in the car park came looking to see what damage was caused in relation to the sound made. i thought the centre was gonna collapse. anyway had a look and everyone was a little disappointed. we only moved the bar about an inch in. nothing else. fixed easily.

(note for all.... ' we ' means 'the lil lady'. although i was co-pilot)

hehe horry story for you...

my sister...went out to our car one day while dad and i were in a sports store. she had the keys..(was only about 9)..and she wanted to turn the radio on..hopped in the drivers seat and started the car all the way up..and because she didn't have her foot on the clutch the car 'jumped' straight into the brick wall.

wasn't too bad..dad panel-beat it out, and we still have that car today with the same bumper with very faint(but visible) crack in the corner!

No, dont fix, it. You need scars on your car. They're like a map of where you been and who you bumped into! And the worse your car looks, the more people make room for you when you want to change lanes.
