Angry Mah baby is hurt!!!!

I was in the parking lot waiting to get into a parking space. There is this old man with his bid azz Escalade backed right into my driver side fender. I was so furious, but I managed to keep cool and be polite to the guy. I called the police and filed a report. Now I need to bring to a good body shop to get an estimate and fix her up.

Ouch! That looks painful. It must've been horrible watching it happen. On the bright side though, the guy didn't get a chance to just drive away.

HOLY SH%$T

Another Z crashed! So Sorry to hear it.

You have a NISMO replica Kit on? looks like the bumper is ok
but you lost a side skirt.

Should'nt be too bad to fix.
Dont worry it'll look as good as new.

I feel your pain. I had something similar happen to me this morning... Why does the Z attract so many morons in huge SUVs and trucks?

Amazing, looks like you got lucky and it was only the fender. A couple inches left or right and that's a much more expensive repair. Maybe time to get the Amuse fenders or ???.

Sorry to hear that man. How did he hit your car? It looks like he missed the door, headlight, and rim!!! I'm with everyone else and wondering why Zs have been getting hit a lot recently. I'm beginning to become a lot more worried of mine.
