How do you pull forward out of a parking space and hit a curb?

I should have been more specific, it was the parking block that I hit.

Just make sure your car is not around when you decide to detonate.

And right before you do decide to do this, yell "ala ala ala ala"
And whats the significance of "ala ala ala ala"??... just curious

Yeah, I'm probably overreacting as the damage isn't too bad, I just hate when stuff like this happens though.

Curbed mine last week, I paused in my Z for a moment to hold in my rage because I knew it finally happened to me. Then a loud Fahhhhhhhhhc! came out of my mouth, seconds after it became redundant. I came out of my car hoping it was my lip and to my let down, sure enought it was my lip. I thought to myself, well maybe it's time for new wheels. Although the thought was kind of soothing I didn't want to let my SSR's go that way. I brought it to F1 Motorsports and they fixed it like a charm. You couldn't even tell if they were curbed.

I had to make 3 right turns in a parking lot to get to a space and I ran over the curb on the last turn. It was just 1 foot wide and couldn't really see it. So, I went over the curb and basically over it w/the right side of my car. Just thank full there was no damage...never really knew the car could get over it...atleast no cracks/damage on the bottom....

LOL at all the comments. When i first got my car i had to park in old town Alexandria, and most of you know in "old town" communities you either have to parallel park or park and walk. well anyway i had to parallel park and then pay for a meter, well i curbed the bottom corner of my front bumper. i swear it went from ppw to flat black i was like are you serious! Nissan paint really does blow, oh well.
