Someone decided to hit my car today
 

So im at work, and I get a little hungry. I got out to my car to grap a couple quarters to get something out of the vending machine. When I get about 20 feet from my car, I notice it. Big long scratches, each about half an inch wide, running down the entire length of my drivers side door and a little on the front fender. He or she also hit my rim and put a bunch of marks on it as well, just for good measure. Of course there was no note. Security is looking at video feeds from this morning, but said they are usually more focused on doors and not the parking lot. Needless to say, Im f**ckin pissed. I havent even had my car 3 months yet. Just had to vent some anger. Ill post some pics when I take some during lunch.

Shitty deal. Hopefully it gets fixed up good as new.

It sucks that these have to be the first pics I post of my 8. I couldnt get a good pic of rim damage.

ouch... sorry dude. hopefully the security cam caught that sucker.

omfg, i fuckin hate it when that happens.

that hurts me just looking at it. Hope you can get it fixed real soon.

well.. it could be worse...

True. But its no longer perfect.

Sorry to hear about the damage. I would be livid - more so at the lack of a note than the hit itself.

I would suggest a little foot-work of your own - take a walk around the lot today and look for someone with corresponding marks. Someone has your paint on their car. To be extra certain you might take a tape measure out - measure the height of the scratches and measure any guilty-looking parties you find plus get pics of their car and license plate.

If they're smart they're driving a different car for a while, but if they were really smart they would have not hit you or at least left a note.

If the dummy didn't even notice they hit you they probably drove the same car today.

Are you only employee parking or do you have customers and guests in that lot too?

sorry to hear about that.... I hope it all works out... You could do what my friend did to his 8..... actually put on dash camera, he activates it when he leaves his car.... hahaha good idea, but waste of money....

Best of luck, and sorry to hear about your car

I made a walk around both lots during lunch, no car with corresponing marks. Theres no customers who would park there, its a permit only lot. It is in a residential neighborhood, so Im guessing he/she parked far away after it happened. I'll definatley be on the look out over the next week or so, they have to park in the lot again sometime. My only other thoughts was that it could have been a delivery truck. But the marks seem rather low for that and it couldnt have happened to long after I parked it in the morning becuase the lot fills up rather quickly.

Thanks to all for the simpathy.

My first month with my license, I whacked a Chrysler's quarter panel in a parking lot. There was no damage to my truck, and I could have made a clean getaway. But instead I took pics and left a note. Wound up costing my insurance $400. Hopefully, because of that, I'm karma-protected.

ouch man, my feelings go out to you and your 8.

I hope you are able to nail the son of a bitch that did that - accidents happen but being a little bitch and not leaving a note is just about as low as you can go.

10 bucks says if you are able to find out who did it - they will be in some retarded ass SUV.

I had someone open their door on me 2 weeks ago. got a vertical dent from it. they said it was the wind. Yeah cost them around 400 dollars.

Sorry man. That does suck so bad. If you rub your nail along the paint, does it get caught? Hard to tell the depth of it from those pics. Is the car actually dented bad or is it just a lot of paint trading?

Rootski
you are a good man

If only the world was full of you

People are scumbags. It's a-holes like this that have eroded my faith in humanity. Sorry to hear about your damage... I hope you catch the spineless twit that did it.

sorry this happened to you and hope u get it fixed soon.

Sympathies.

Keep us posted if you find out who did it but I'm betting you won't. Gutless turds like this usually park somewhere else for a while I reckon.

OMG! that sucks bro. I hope they catch that person. Someone did a hit & run in my Apartments. Worst day of my life.

You've had a good life. ;)

Ouch! That sucks.

Sorry it happened, the pix made me cringe but then Dominions animated sig made the pain go away ;)

Seriously I hope you catch who did that and that it gets fixed to like-new condition.

Good luck! You still have a sweet ride regardless.

Time for some dentless repair

That really blows, I honestly think that I would cry if that happened to me.

Back when I owned a jeep, I was sitting in it in a parking lot when this chick in car talking on her cell phone pulled beside me, she opens her door and smacks my passenger side door, I was like "wtf" and she looks in, sees me and says "sorry" then walks into the store still talking on her cell phone, needless to say I was angry. but luckily when I got out to inspect there was somehow no damage to the door, too bad mazda doesn't make 'em like that.

If you ever do find 'em, and they knew that it happened, give us all his/her/its name and I can assure you they will give you no more problems.

Hell yeah. I got an RX-8!!! :ylsuper:
