Hit and Run by a Big Chicken last night...
 
Last night I was hit and run by a pu*** last night. It really pisses me the hell off. I feel almost Pulp Fiction esque. Can't have anything nice anymore. I would have loved to catch them doing the shit. Some clown blasted my car and my neighbors car in a private parking lot where we live. Almost pushed it a whole 90 degrees from the way that I had parked her.

Just pisses me off. Mine as well buy a civic once they fix this and not care what happens to it. I am sure you all know the drill. Pay to get my car fixed thanks to the actions of a drunk d-bag. We are putting posters up all around my complex offering a cash reward leading to info on whom was responsible for the incident.

Thanks for reading my mini-rant, don't even have time for a long rant. Pics below.

Sorry that happened to your car. I hope that you find the A-hole responsible and nail him to the wall!

chrism 12-10-2006 08:47 AM

oh that sure blows.....at least now you have the chance to buy a body kit......if you find out who did this i would be glad to drive down and help whoop his ass!

Nopstnz 12-10-2006 08:52 AM

^^ So would I. Damn. Sorry about that.

StewyRX8 12-10-2006 10:29 AM

Thanks fellas, I'm ready to beat some ass...

dbright007 12-10-2006 10:44 AM

Stewy,
That sux bad... I live in apts and hate trying to find a place to park her.

dos 12-10-2006 11:02 AM

Man that sucks. I hope you find that asshole.

chrism 12-10-2006 11:43 AM

looks like you need a new exhaust with the kit too...hmmmm oem exhaust it about the same retail as a few other exhausts i know

SayNoToPistons 12-10-2006 11:59 AM

Holy shit. At least there's no structural damage. New excuse for a new exhaust :) ?

altspace 12-10-2006 11:59 AM

Sucks, I too have experienced the pain. Came out of my apt. complex to find a nice big hit like yours to my Jeep. Called police, they filed a report. I pointed out the evidence to them, which was white paint and pieces of broken headlight which was from a Toyota. Gee, how hard would it be to track that down? To top it off, my apt. place had a security guard at the entrance and video cameras, but they did absolutly nothing to assist me. This lead me to believe the cameras were fake.

Had to pay for the fix myself. It sucks.

chrism 12-10-2006 12:01 PM

stew you got a pm...let me know!

.whisper 12-10-2006 12:57 PM

Your car is dirty ;)

And that does suck. It's one of the reasons that I'm so anal about trying to park in a garage, or away from where idiots can hit me, but it's not always possible.

Hope it can get repaired quickly.

Clavius 12-10-2006 01:31 PM

Holy shyt.. and your car aint silver ><!
Definatly gonna need some body work on it. I'd say aim for maybe a bodykit and aftermarket exhaust now hehe. Just trying to shell out some positives man.

If I lived closer I'd offer myself up for a beat down of the guy who did this. I'm just picturing about 4-10 Rx-8's pulling into this guys neighbor hood and this guy shitting his pants.

encorez 12-10-2006 01:33 PM

What goes around, comes around.
Someday they will get theirs.

Winfree 12-10-2006 01:42 PM

Hope you got good comprehensive insurance - they should cover hit and run
The jerk is apt to live in the your unit or come to visit - so you can turn over a list of suspects to your insurance agent - they are more apt to do an investigation to recover their own losses - and this kind of thing can mean jail time for the perp if you can locate him, get evidence and file a complaint (depends on state) - yup check for evidence, and ask around at local body shops

Smokin_LaLa 12-10-2006 01:45 PM

I really hate idiotic people who dont respect other people's property, I hope this person gets whats coming to them, sorry to hear about this

Jackallll 12-10-2006 02:09 PM

sorry to hear....hope you catch that jacka$$

StewyRX8 12-10-2006 02:16 PM

PoPos did find a side marker from a mid 90s Grand-Am. There is a mid-90s, white grand-am in my complex but hasn't been around since, I wonder...

SayNoToPistons 12-10-2006 02:38 PM

What color is the grand-am? Any paint that was left on your car?

Wilson 12-10-2006 02:47 PM

From the pics, it looks like a black vehicle hit it.

StewyRX8 12-10-2006 02:48 PM

The grand-am here is white...

Wilson 12-10-2006 02:49 PM

Also, it looks like a little crease just at the top left of the turn signal, so it will take some body work in that area, so just a new bumper and exhaust won't quite cut it.

Did you find any white paint/streaks on your rx8?

SSJ 909 12-10-2006 03:28 PM

Damn dude, that totally sux!

Isnt there anyway the police can track who did it by the paint residue from their car on yours?
I remember reading years ago that each car manufacturer has their own type of paint used on cars.
So for example if it was a certain type of yellow that was only used on mustangs.
You could do a search for yellow mustangs in your area and see which one is damaged.

toxin440 12-10-2006 03:35 PM

wow man - my heart goes out to you and your 8. I too own a brilliant black RX8. If I lived close to you i'd love to help you go looking for the piece of shit that did this and make things right.... with baseball bats.
