My front bumper is basically destroyed. Paint is peeling, cracks, the works. My rear bumper is scratched to hell from having a friend push me out of the snow this winter with his Tahoe with a push bar thing. My drivers side window doesn't seal all the way, so if I spray it off at the car wash, water gets into the car. The trim above that window is loose. I lost my drivers side eschutetonteojghneont whatever it's called (luckily getting a new one next week). I need to change my spark plugs, and fix a leak in my front drivers side brake line. I also need to wash my engine bay. I've got alot of work to do.

58k miles and not a single dent or door ding. I've got some rock chips on the hood, but other than that my car is in fantasic condition for an 04. I'm fortunate enough to have an end spot in my secured garage at work so my car is never outside and I park far away from everyone when I go shopping.

My 04 coupe is in pristine condition. I bougt it new and has only 37K miles. Then again it never gets driven in the rain, always garaged and just about everything has been modified or upgraded.

Wow I really need to get on this forum more often. after being a ghost on forum for 5 years.

I was lucky enough that when I bought this car, the previous owner took VERY VERY good care of it. 2005 with 38k miles on it when I picked her up. I baby my car. Its my daily driver but its always garaged when I'm at home. I wash the car and clean the interior about once a week, to make sure she stays dirt free. And I honestly feel that she looks better then when I picked her up from the private owner. I have the occasional rock chips here and there, but that's going to happen. No smoking or eating in my car either.

I'm a firm believer that when you take care of your car, she will take care of you. If you keep it looking clean and looking nice, resale will always be successful. Prime example is when I sold my Honda to this college kid. I took very good care of that, exterior and interior, and I got my asking price, no haggle needed at all.

I get 2 paychecks per month. And one of them goes towards my car payment in its entirety. So I'd like to say I work my *** off for it, but excuse me if I'm not as obsessed with my car as most on here are. But I clean bird **** off every time I see it on her, would that qualify as being obsessed?

My 05 coupe's got about 5 or 6 small dings around the body.. so i'm looking for a good shop to take it to. How much should I pay to get them all worked out?
