damn valet guys!!

okay, so last weekend i'm at my beach club and i hand the valet the keys and think nothing of it..........so i'm waiting 5+ minutes and finally i see the valet bringing out my G......the valet area is basically a traffic circle and there are about 3 or 4 cars parked near or around the circle waiting for the valet or picking up......BOOM! freakin valet guy hits my tire into the curb, to myself i am going g-d damnit! he drove my car into a curb! but i didnt hear anything scraping or crash so i think it was just the tire, the guy backs up and pulls the car around so i don't even think to check my car....so a week later (now) i am washing my car and what do i see on the very bottom of the front bumper? a huge freakin scratch. i can't do anything about it now except get it fixed ( can't make club pay for it they won't believe me). these guys park and pull out cars for a living, what is their f****** problem?!?!? i'll post a pic a little later

i hate valet guys too. i hardly ever let them park my car unless i have no other choice. since you saw it happen, you should have checked it right then.

first off, NEVER valet your car!!! the stories about cars getting damaged or taken for joyrides are endless. secondly, WHY DIDNT YOU INSPECT THE CAR IMMEDIATELY!!!! once you leave the lot, you're shi$t out of luck. i routinely do a 360 around my car everytime i pick it up from the dealer or shop. for your case, you actually witnessed the guy hit the curb. well, lesson learned.

at least the damage is on the bottom of the car and not noticeable.

i know i'm stupid that i didn't check the car out lol, even if i inspected it, it would be hard to see because the scratch is almost under the car. it's very hard to notice but i'm still p/o'd

Do you have a lip yet? Might be a good way to cover it up?
