#@$%*@#@



Some careless jackass scratched my month old TSX's driver side passenger door. The scratch does not look intentional but its about 15 inches long. It is in the undercoat but not too wide. I have a friend who owns a bodyshop and I have to take it over there to see what it would cost to get it fixed... I might have to get the entire door repainted and I am not a happy camper.


I just had to rant.

Friend said he could get it out without repainting the entire door. I will give it a try... I'll post pics of the scratch tomorrow.

Where in the hell do you park then? You never park in parking lots?

I get what you're trying to say, but it just didn't make total sense.
