Are your wheels bolted down properly? Did you break a ball joint?

What the fuck. Some fucktard scratched my car.... I mean, it'll buff out, literally, but still... like wtf yo. How much more fucking room do I have to give you. I already park beyond the yellow line.... -_- Fuck my uni. People can't drive for shit and don't give a shit if they fuck up someone else's car... Like today, I park alone at the corner spot next to the elevator and some fuckass decides to park right next to me when there were a gazillion empty spots.... like it was literally empty and they shose to park right fuckijng next to me....




Like wtf could even cause that.... It's like lines.....

Wheels are bolted on correctly... I didn't see anything that looked broken when I looked at the suspension earlier. will look at ball joints later today or tomorrow.

Simon it's the truth. Not just school; happens at work too. I've done the exact same thing at my old workplace where I did co-op at, and it happened to me in my 2G TL too. It's bullshit, I know. You're lucky you can buff it out though. It could've been worse.

My advice if you can, take the bus LOL. Ditch the parking fees... and ditch the dumbasses in the parking lot.

Looks like someone tried keying you. At least that's what I think from the second picture. I hope those pink stickers aren't getting you in trouble.

Not only your school that kids can't drive for shit. Saw some girl try parking, hit a cars back fender, reversed and just left the scene. And when I say try parking, she wasn't even close, it looked like she had not even turned the wheel half way, just drove right into the other car. There are a ton of hit and run accidents like those. Mostly just a bunch of dumb broads that can't drive for shit.

No that's not a key mark. something rubbed up against the car from the looks of it.

It has those straight line/jagged marks that keys tend to leave, right near the gap. The other mark does look like some kind of smudge mark though. I just assume it's a pair of keys, I mean what else would college kids be carrying that would cause that kind of damage?

When you run your finger across the scuffs does it feel that there's actually paint on top of your car, or is it an actual scratch?

Yeah 200 sounds fair. Maybe soon.

My new job is either travel or work from home.
3 vehicles and wagon gets the least use. Like 200 miles in 3 months
Its stupid to just watch it depreciate.
KBB has me at 25.5 trade in.
May unmod and sell or trade.
Thinking it over lol

It just looks like shit on the surface, I don't think that's really into the clear or the paint (going by the pic)

DD must have 4wd and some capabilities. Jeep covers that.
El Camino takes care of modding needs.
Wagon is left out/

It's a pain to have to have the car parked, open HFL, talk to that POS that never understands anything.

"ADD PHONE"

Car: "HANDSFREE LINK OPTIONS ARE BLAH BLAH BLAH, PRESS THE TALK BUTTON, AND SAY A COMMAND"

"PAIR PHONE"

Car: "HANDSFREE LINK OPTIONS ARE BLAH BLAH BLAH, PRESS THE TALK BUTTON, AND SAY A COMMAND"


The infiniti system is the best i've used. you can do it all on the screen on the dash and no bullshit voice commands.

Just cover the pad in sand, that's the best polish.

^Wouldve done that if I didn't spend all my monies on the polisher.

I don't think my hood is that baller.... Just that people spend like 80% of their income on cars
