Default My Parking Lot Hit and Run Fender Bender.

I knew I should have taken my other car to the store.
But Noooooo I had to take the Z.
Can you blame me?
I just had the UR Crank Pulley and RT Cats put in.

Anyway I park like always as far away from civilization as possible
except the lot is packed. So it doesnt matter. At least I get a corner spot. No Spots on my drivers side.

Well here is what I came back to after shopping.

DAMN! I actually heard "Pa Ching"
"Pa Ching"
"Pa Ching"
as the money flew away from my bank account.

Front Driver Fender/Driver side Bumper/ClearBra/ClearBra Driver Headlight: DAMAGED

There was nothing I could do but Eat it

Insurance Here I come.
Body Shop Here I come.

Sooooooooooo

I was really TRUCKING PISSED for about 15 min. Then said
"TRUCK IT" S#$@T Happens.

Getting it fixed and taken care of by the best of the best.

More than likely
Gonna add the Veilside CF Lip. Clear coated.
STILLEN stage 1 Rear Wing.

Might as well add some Mods while the car is in the shop?
Right


Here is a pic of my TRACK after it kissed a *****

Hot damn man! My condolences...

BTW, did you park far away and to the corners? If so, do you think someone deliberately hit your car being that it was for far away and quite inaccessible? I absolutely HATE parking next to anyone else... there have been times where I have told my g/f to go ahead and go shopping while I sat in the car waiting and watching for door dingers. Typically when in crowded parking lots, as you've said Diab.

At least the rim looks unscathed. If that's any consolation.

I am thinking about a new bumper too.

Nor sure which one?

I wonder if it's gonna look obvious the car was repaired
with no Orange peel on the fender, and since it's gonna be
a new fender they have to blend the driver door and hood.

I am glad I didnt see it occur cuz I am not sure what could
have happened

Here is how it seems to have happened.

Diablo,

It's sad to see what happened. Hit and run = chicken ****.

If you claim insurance, can the price of clear bra be included? I don't think the clear bra can be reused, or can it?

Again, sorry to see what happened, hope aftermarket mod will make you feel better.

Rgd,
Mickey

You know.....seeing as my car was just hit Saturday also, I am OUT to get anyone who dings/damages a Z. I am out for BLOOD! I don't know what kind of language can or can't be used on this forum, but I would have to say that I would probably inherit a strike for my use of colourful words right now. I am sooooooooooo sorry El for what happened. Man, don't you wish you could just find thge s.o.b. and put his/her teeth in a box of Chicklets??? I also park far away from civilization in parking lots. The day I go to Home Depot, I park way in the back, in the middle. Out of the blue comes some piece of sh** wreck to park RIGHT beside me. My instinct is telling me, "Jen, move the car, move the car". But do I? No.....as I sit there waiting for this woman and her little snot rag brat to get out, he flings open his door, and BANG!!! Knew it knew it knew it....like a mental banshee from hell, I come out screaming liek I've got PMS....."TEACH YOUR LITTLE SH** STAIN F***** TO OPEN HIS DOOR PROPERLY, I HAVE YOUR LICENSE PLATE NUMBER"....bla bla bla.........And grocery carts everywhere....Ralph's, Home Depot, people are just too G.D. Lazy, but if their car gets dingged??? Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......o.k. I feel better now........So sorry once again.....be on the look out for somebody's car with your paint on it...then give me a call. I'll fix em' good! ; )

Nope the clear bra is a gonner. It probably wont be covered.

I gonna have to re-clear bra the Bumper once everything is back on the car.

At least I am getting rid of the License plate Bumper Holes!!!

I got a shop that was highly recommended and experienced with Z's. I feel confident that the car will look good as new.

Add some Body Mods and Presto Im back in business

Sux to hear you got screwed on your cars body work.

Post a pic of your Z.
