car got messed up again..

I got up this morning and walked out to the car. The hood was dented in. Looked like someone landed on it by the grille. Awesome. I just paid close to 300 bucks to pop this rock dent out and repaint the area a few weeks ago. Now it's going to cost another 300 bucks to fix this.

back before i had my cls, i had a legend. when i brought my legend down to campus in 2000, the finish looked pretty good. no major dents (even though it was 8 years old). when i left the dorms in 2002, my car doors looked like they had been through the war in iraq.

Pathetic. Sorry to hear about this man.

If this was done on purpose, don’t worry karma is a bitch.

Ouch ... I always worry if I leave my car out in places with a bunch of kids around for too long. Lost my Rays Engineering valve caps for my tires ... who knows what might happen next time. Too bad ... that $300 could have gone towards tires ...

Like my day couldn't be any worse, I just found two spots where the paint is chipped on the passenger side front fender. Down to bare metal; the entire fender will have to be repainted.


Man, I am so ticked off right now.

Ok Funny Story that should make you feel better.
I bought my first 3.2 CL last year sometime during the end of the evil winter here in Buffalo, ny. So i'm driving home from work and pulling off a ramp downtown and I'm like "Wow is that a car coming at me down the ramp"..haha. So i actually got around this guy spinning at me, but ended up not having enough room to make the turn and slid right into the wall. The guy that was coming at me was priest BTW.
So yeah that sucked. Ended up being alot of damage to the front left of my car. Wheel tilted in and whatnot. So i paid my deductible and i get it out of the shop weeks later. So i'm happy that its on the road again and i'm like ROADD TRIPPPP. So i drive it to Philadelphia to visit some of my friends. We are all having a good time, went to a party in west philly and then i come to my car later that evening and see that the back right fender has been kicked in. I get in my car Sunday...drive it all the way home...extremely pissed off. I get it in the shop monday, ended up being 800 dollars. So yeah i'm like well the bad luck must be over...it really must be!@# I Get it back from the shop and go to a supermarket to get some food, come outside and my bumper is crushed in. THis is the same day BTW. So i'm like HOLY !@#@ SH!@#. WHAT IS GOING ON. I get it fixed for around 300 and the saga continues. I had some 18" ADR rims which i hated on the car and i decided to go back with the stock rims. So i'm at work, take my lunchbreak to go pick up my old rims and tires..and i'm driving down a suburban side street in Buffalo at about 15-20MPH. A car is on my left coming at me with their blinker on...i get right next to them..and they just turned right into me. Ended up being an old lady..their insurance convered it. I was just like "WTF..this car is cursed...i hate it" So i FINALLY GET IT OUT OF THE SHOP...and i'm driving to work some days later after getting my car back from the last accident....then BAM....someone just drifts right into me while making a left turn on a ramp. The guy said he didn't see me in the lane. Well the CL was gone...ripped the front and the back right off the car. All my airbags went off...belongings everywhere....and I just accepted that the car was !@# cursed and it just wasn't meant to be. Days later i'm just thinking about how funny the whole situation was...i went back up to Acura and bought a 3.2CL Type-S. I wasn't about to let the last 3.2CL win the battle against me. I've had it for about a year now and not one problem. I think i probably hold the record for f@#$@# up a 3.2cl so many times in less then one year. So just remember that life is hard on the come up but it all works out. :gheywave:
