Well I assumed everyone would be parking on the street.....the drive way has like a horseshoe with 3 parking bays to the side, and cars had parked in the horseshoe. Someone wanted to get out and probably backed up thinking nothing was there and didn't see my black car.

destroy your MS bumper? Is this the same MS bumper you just sold me that "just has a crack by the headlight"?

Oh brutal man, something worse happened to me over at the Red Lion, same sort of deal, hit & run, I ended up having to replace my entire rear drivers door, and the front door skin, it wasn't too pretty.

within 2 weeks of buying my 8. someone swiped my front passenger wheel fender.

3 months later, someone backs into. not very hard, but enough to leave little dents all over the back bumper.

We're all convinced that they must have been tanked that's why they took off.....'cause if you're drinking and get into an accident your insurance is null and void here.

Really sorry to hear this ... you'll get it all fixed up and be no worse off.

Deciding where to park is a loooooong process for me, might not even make it into the party for all the mental calculations. I never ever park between 2 cars, under a tree, infront of a bush, near a walkway, etc. If I can't find a place to park the 8 safely, I'm not getting out of my car.

Ha well I thought I was going to be okay 'cause I was parked in one of the parking bays over night, I figured people who were coming to the party and leaving would park on the street.

My Mazda3 got hit at work this year and 2 weeks prior to that it got broken into . I work at a University and the ******* losers charge us $600+ a year to park a car there even though I'm staff, and they don't even have video surveillance of the incident.

Yeah about the hit and run vs. duty ..thing... I was sitting in a Macdonald's parking lot few years back and some guy in some kind of sports car(low, flat front end backed up under the right rear of my car, lifted my car up off it's suspension. I honked and jumped out but he had turned and fled. I was pissed, my car was only a month old(not my 8) Thats a hit and run and boy was I pissed I couldn't get his plate. grrr...

Yeah I'm not having the greatest luck lately. I crashed my 15-grand sport bike on the track just over a month ago, broke my arm and had to have 2 surgeries on it. Bike is kinda fucked. But at least that one was my fault!
