damn suv mashed my grille while I was in the bank

a friggin truck, or suv backed up and smashed my grille so bad that the latch is broken and I can't open the hood. the bumper also got shoved down and there is 2" of seperation between the panels. I am so flamen pissed. I go out of my way to park away from door dings and stuff like this, and the time I do park with other cars this shit happens. its the 3rd time, and the worst by far. The thing that makes me maddest is that I was in the bank when it happened. a few days earlier I saw some dumb chick play bumper cars when she pulled out of a space with a damn navigator and thought nothing of it.

That really sucks man.

If you’re interested, I have a complete spare CHROME grill (Inner & Outer) from my car that is in the box and has never been used.
I’ll sell it to you cheap if you’re fixing this yourself and need it.

Re: damn suv mashed my grille while I was in the bank

That's a heck of a lot like what happened to my car recently.
Similar damage, except much less extreme. In my case I slid on ide and we bumped fronts, but that damn big ass grill thing on his car went over my bumper and scratched the hell out of it.

I feel your pain. Luckily my hood still opens and all.
I haven't gotten an estimate on repairs yet.

thanks for the sympothy, I'll just try to straighten it out for now, since I'm pretty sure it'll happen again. any more damage, then I'll fix it. maybe I'll catch someone in the act of doing it and make them fix it all. at least its not a transmission that needs fixxing. Two weeks ago,about 10 friggin clowns were chillin on the corner and 2 of them were wrestling. one of them fell on my hood while I was at a red light. I almost ran him over since he just layed there and acted like nothing happened. then he stepped on my hood. I got so mad, I just got out of my car in the middle of the street and snuffed him. Some old guy tried to break it up and in all the chaos we started to throw punches again. all in all, I ended up with a slight ding in the hood and a swelled up eye and he ended up with a broken radio and a busted lip. I would have kept fighting if there weren't like 10 cars behind mine at the light . My car has bad karma

WOW!! Sorry to hear about your car and your black eye! Sounds like you need to rush to the nearest Catholic Church and get your CL EXORCISED or at least blessed!!
