I'm an AHole!
Took the car to the beach and ran into a curb and scraped the paint off the bottom of the front fascia. I feel like such a tool! As you were.

Re: I'm an AHole!
Well this story has a happy ending! I used some compound on it and it turns out it was the white paint from the curb on there istead of primer like I first thought. It just sucks cause I am always worried about other people messing up my car and I end up doing it myself.

Re: I'm an AHole!
Somehow it's easier to swallow when you do it yourself. Other wise you'll end up killing someone! If you screw it up yourself, you're just like....."what an arsehole I am"....and move on!

Re: I'm an AHole!
There is something to be said about driving a beater car. I have my wife's '97 accord (most people would say it's not a bad car). I have been waiting driving this pos. I don't care where I park or who I park next to. If I see a scratch I shrug my shoulders and say oh well. In January that will be a different story......

Re: I'm an AHole!
I'm in the exact same situation. 'cept it's my car and I still baby it. I'm extremely paranoid about dings and suspicious of any other car in a parking lot. I guess u could say I'm practicing for my new car. I better get a good price for it (probably private party) tho... it's gonna pay for some upgrades... :)
