Angry WTF !!! I need to vent !!! and need help !!!

Ok ive been at work from 9am to 3pm... a quick shift...went home and washed the car + wheels + a little bit of detailing. Took me 2+ hrs to do this.

My friend picked me up even joked that the last thing I need to do is sleep with my car as she saw me still caressing the paint and the body.

Went to LAX to pick up my best friend, came back to their house and then go eat out...

I got home an 1hr ago saw a note on the kitchen table from my aunt... she basically backed up into my car..... I dont get it...there is like a gigantic space as in gigantic as in huge big large space from inside the garage to where I park the car and she still backed up and effing scratched my car !!! Out of respect I told her not to worry.... it is almost 12:30 am here...she went back to sleep... I cant go to sleep went out and looked at the car... took some pics ...got some wax and waxed the portion where she backed up... waxed like crazy even closing my eyes and wishing when i open them the scratch is gone.... basically the scratch went all the way to the black plastic of the rear bumper... its been an hour I cant sleep i am still thinking of the car !!! f u ck !!!! what a waste of money...i can stand it it ruins the clean lines of the car !!! i wished it was underneath or somewhere where you cant see but NOOOO .....

here is some pics !!! this time dont enjoy....












I wished it was just the bumper but there is a little discoloration on the metal part too !!!!

I need to get this fixed as this will bother me !!! I am **** with my cars !!! i cant sleep !!! cant sleep !!! what a waste of money !!! a waste of money that I dont have !!!! i even mentioned to her that I have to bring it to a shop ...she did not say anything about helping me out...

OMFG !! sorry just have to vent !!

Tomorrow its gonna be worse when the first time I'll see it under the sun !!

Guys I am Walnut, CA 91789 any shops I can bring this ?? any mobile repair that I can trust ?? anyone who could help me plsss !!!! let me know plss !! how much usually this cost for repair ?? How long does it take ?? this is my daily driver !!

thanks !!!

Dude it's a scratch. You need to chill out. That's a cheap repair. It's not as if you got clipped by a Frito Lay truck or anything. I bet it costs $100 at most to fix.

looks small enough that a clay/compound/polish/wax would make it look near-new, which you can do yourself.

did you only wax the scratch? that won't do much as to take it out. you need a compound and polish for that.

You're pissed about that? Look at what I did to my car at work with the pressure washer. OOOOOOPS, cost me 150$ to repaint the entire thing, prep, sealant, clear coat.

I feel your pain bro, I'm **** as hell about my car.
But in order to not drive yourself crazy you have to realize that this **** is bound to happen.
Just remember that it could be a lot worse.
I realized this when some dumbass side swiped my pride and joy at 30 mph.
Now when I get a scratch on my car I can put things into perspective a little easier.
Granted I still get pissed, but I accept it's an inevitable fact of life.
You can either take it to a professional detailer or try some touchup paint.
I've heard this works well too.

That a sissy scratch, you shouldn't be that pissed off about it.

Hell if any relative of mine backed onto my car by mistake I wouldn't vent much tbh

Nath, are you done venting? No....why not that's an easy fix, all you need is some touch up paint from the stealership. When it's no longer so obvious you can sleep. When we're at the Huntington Beach meet I promise I won't be looking for where your scratch was!

Like everyone said, that's basically almost nothing. It's not even dented.

Just keep reminding yourself that cars are depreciating assets.
