Angry How the HELL!?! My fender is trashed! Im Pissed! [PICTS]

Ok, well, soooo much for puttin the rims on. Freakin A! Grrr!!! :angryfire

Ok, I washed and cleaned my car lastnight. Noticed a lot more door dings and scratches (which really pissed me off) But nothin like what I found today! Lastnight, my fender was fine...and somewhere between 11pm to 11am today, someone or something totaly trashed my freakin fender. It WASNT like this lastnight. I walked outta work this morning for my lunch hour, and this is what I freakin found. Im hella pissed. I cant freakin figure out how the hell this happened! Lastnight I dropped by a friends apartment from 11-midnight (parked between 2 cars, and left later w/ the same 2 cars there next to me) I didnt notice anything lastnight, and today I drove to work, and my car was in the parking lot for 4 hrs, and then I notice the dent. I dont think it happened at work, and I cant imagine how the hell it happened though. The freakin dent is HUGE. The wierd thing is, theres no damage to the hood, and no damage to the side of the fender. Its like something fell at the perfect angle on my fender, which totaly took out the bodyline and made a freakin giant size dent.

Sooooo looks like the $ I was about to use to throw the rims on, is now gonna have to be spend on fixing the damn fender. The bodyline is gone, sooo I donno if it can be poped out (paintless dent removal) orrr I might have to get an entire freakin new fender & paint.

*Forgot to say, the dent is soo wierd. The angle, and size, and, theres no scrapes/scuffs, no paint ruboff, and the paint on the fender didnt even chip or flake. (sooo its not like someone backed into me or hit me...I donno how the hell this happened! Im sooo confused on what could/would of fell and hit my car @ that angle.

Heres the picts....





AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Im freakin pissed!

you could probably get a fender @ a junk yard for cheap, or a new OEM one unpainted and paint it for cheap.

sorry to hear about that man. something similar happened to my last car when some van backed into it trying to park next to me. the impact set of my alarm and the guy didn't even know he did anything. so when he left i caved in his driver side door with my foot . to be honest with you it was very satisfying. not too sure how this info will help you but hopefully you get a "kick" out of my story .

yea...and $300 would get me a new painted fender also though...

The fact is, I have noo freakin clue how out of 12hrs...6hrs the car was in my garage, and 6hrs it was out in the elements and somehow, somewhere, it got F*ed up. The point is that I cant figure out how the hell it happened, and now im out freakin like $300....that $300 was going to be used to put my wheels on....Sooo now I cant get the rims on yet...im pissed.

300 for a brand new (not cut out of a junkyard CL) fender painted, remove the old one, install the new one?? good luck.

i'll tell you right now with my experience with body damage, you are better off getting that dent fixed. they can massage out the dent and fill it and paint it.

If PDR dosnt work, I'll be checking the junkyards and "Certifit" for a fender. I know I can get the paint work done pretty cheap. I'll still try to get the rims on...but it seems like everytime I get any amount of $...it ends up goin to freakin bills, or shit like this, that I didnt plan on having to do.

Im starting to think that someone might of fallen into it. Just b/c of the fact that theres no scratches, no paint rub or chipped...im thinkin someone might of just fallen into it...i donno. When I get some free time, I'll take it by a local shop and see what they can do with it.
I really hope PDR works...but Im just afarid because of that bodyline, that they might not be able to do anything, but totaly replace it.

Hahaha, thats funny. Remines me of the time I got my window smashed in while I was at work. Nothing stolen but it sure pissed me off. I swear I could have killed the guy had I been there when it happened. Things like that really piss me off. Having to waste money for no reason. Good luck with the fender.
