That sucks *** John! By chance, did you get their insurance info? And BTW, weren't you in another wreck a while back @ Mickey Dees?

hey dont get that madd cause i know my story is much more tragic. my car was parked at my friends house on a saturday night this past april and i go to pick it up at exactly 4am to go home. as im walking up to it on the passenger side i notice that the front end of my car was all up on the sidewalk, and it was one of those streets where the curb is sloped so you can drive right up it rather then the 90degree angle curbs. anyway so im walking up on the passenger side and i see it all up on the sidewalk and i stop and said out loud to myself "I didnt park like that, I KNOW i didnt park like that". stood there for a second and just wondered and then i start walking. finally make my way over to the drivers side of the car, and im walking around the front of the car so the first thing i see is my drivers side fender SMASHED in, just totally trashed. i dont think i have ever yelled so loud in all my life. i run back into my friends house and just yell that someone hit my car. come back outside and im in a state of shock at this point and THEN, what do i see. my drivers side quarter panel also SMASHED IN, taillight busted, bumper cracked, just the whole rear corner of the drivers side just trashed. and of course there wasnt anyone around saying, sorry man i wasnt payin attention and went into your car. NOPE, HIT AND RUN, just couldnt believe it. he not only hit my car, he also side swiped my boys 240sx, which he actually did first and then hit my car. what is crazy is that just looking at the damage of the car, he hit my car two different times. the way i think it went down was he hit my boys 240, then went into my front fender(o yea, my car was rocked back about a good 10 feet from where it was parked and thats why is was all up on the sidewalk), hit it so hard that the wheel right there hit the lower control arm so hard it cracked the **** out of the inside of the wheel. so after he hit that area he HAD to of reversed out of it and then started driving again and on his way out clipped my quarter panel and trashed that. thats the only way i can think that it could of happened cuase from a little past the front wheel well, down the door and almost to the gas door there wasnt any damage, so the only thing that i could think of was he hit it twice. while i was waiting for the cops to show up we were walkin around the neighboorhood lookin for the car cuase if the dude was that drunk he couldnt of made it too far. there was also some werid trail of something that was on the street that was right where the our cars got hit, and my friend eric that lived there thought it was from the car that hit us. i really didnt think much of it cuase i thought it was nothing. i told him yea it could of came from the car that hit us, but then again that same trail of whatever it was could of been there for 10 years and you never noticed it. anyways the cops come, i throw the spare on the car, and actually drove it home. now i couldnt go any faster then about 8mph and i had to turn the steering wheel a full quarter turn to the right just to get it to go straight but i got it home. it was also about 6am at this time on a sunday so there wasnt any traffic, and normally its only a 10minute drive thats why i drove it cause i didnt want it to get towed, cause thats what the cops wanted to do. so the last thing that happened i finally get home, and i couldnt go to sleep cuase i could not believe what had just happened so im outside smokin a cig and i get a call from my friend that had the 240 that also got hit. its about 7am and the sun is out now and hes says " yea you remember that trail i was lookin at earlier?" i say yea, "yea well as soon as you left and it got light out, i took my brothers bike and followed it about a mile and a half down the road and you wanna guess what i found?? yup, he found the fu*kin car, well it was a small pickup or something, but he said it had my red paint and his black paint all over it! he called the cops right away and that was about it. i got a nice check from the insurance and i gotta go to court to be a witness or just cause im the owner of the car in about 2 weeks. i hope he gets locked up, i mean you dont trash an FD and get away with it, that almost as bad as killing someone!!

Shitty to hear that.!

The DAY after we got our FC painted, Someone turned to sharp pulling out of a space and clipped the front bumper. Scraped in a few spots. I was "kinda" pissed when I came out of the store.

On another note. Speedking, Call me up again man, you back on my side of the island yet?

Same thing happened to me....but it was much more valuable.

I searched all of FL for the most pristine example of a BB R1. My girlfriend left it in the street, just one morning is all it took, and my perfect OEM R1 was dented and scratched. Now the suspension rubs when I make hard rights. Must have been a neighbor, but can't proove anything.

Sorry,
I truely feel your pain.

that sucks bro, i know how you feel

sometimes at work, i park at my usual spot which is the second space, first one is the secretary, the third is basically whoever comes next.. well on tuesdays, the bosses mom parks there and she ALWAYS parks so close to me so when she gets out, her door will hit my passenger mirror (she has a jeep cheeroke (sp), the new ones)..no matter how much i park close to the left colored line, she will just keep on parking closer to me, she lives like 1 foot of space between her car and mine, no joke..i really hate that, thank god it havent left any marks but still, one day she will just open that door hard and it will make a mark..

Well, atleast you guys have found the bastards. That gives some level of satisfaction. When I was out in san diego working I had this happen.
1.) came out monday morning and saw some rubber lying on the curb next to my car...walked over..thought "this is wierd" and then noticed my door was unlocked...looked in, great my stereo is gone..they had pulled the seal off the door and jimmied it. sucks but no biggy.
2.) came out wednesday morning and noticed my car looked a little dirtier than I thought. Got closer and saw. Someone has backed into the front fender right where the door hinge is and dented it in. Now my door squeaks every time I open it.
