Angry New car new dent

Just bought a 2002 TL type S with 18k. Love the car, had it 1 1/2 weeks and some jackA%@# kicked a $1000.00 dent into the right rear quarter panel while it was parked at my wifes work. Still had the dealer plates on it. There are some real idiots in this world.

Sorry to hear that man! Some people are just inconsiderate bastards. When I parked I never bump on other people's cars. Show the same respect.

Did you try paintless dent removal? They usually cost less than a 100 bux and they usually do a great job on Dings and such.

Could not do dent removal. The dent was about 10" in dia. and about 3" deep. Plus some of the paint started chipping off. They really kicked it hard.

Why does Karma get all the fun. I would want to kick their ass personally. Now that would be satisfaction.

This is nothing compared to what I just got. Someone just T-Boned the passenger rear quarter panel of my 6 day old TL-S A-Spec. The quarter panel needs to be replaced (unrepairable), my whole bumper came off during the accident, the passenger rear tail light needs to be replaced. Initial estimates are over $2000 damage. This TOTTALLY SUCKS!!! The other party already accepted responsibility, but this does not change what it will do to the value of my baby. Good thing is, I don't think the other car touch my rear wheel. If it did, I hate to find out what damage it will do to my rear axle. So far it is just the body, but will find out more detail about the damage later today or tomorrow.

I found a white paint mark on my black TL-S body kit. I was looking for the suspect so I could put two fist sized dent marks in their side panel when I realized it was my neighbor. My neighborhood only has 1 white car and so I plan to put a ding, scratch or both next time I casually pass their car. I know it sounds hella a$$hole style but they should watch their doors. I was able to scratch the paint off with no damage at all but nevertheless it still pissed me off. I believe in karma but I also believe in vengence.

with in a month of buying my 03 WDP some lady hit me while she was backing out of a parking spot. She had black bumper and left some nice marks from the rear passenger door to the end of my bumper. Luckily most of that buffed out but the raw metal and body work and paint was not that easy. She even tried to argue with the cop that it was my faught. She almost caused me to get fined for being late to practice. Anyway she had to pay but the value is still not original. But it is still just a car. Better the car hurt than me or her.
