Tree ON Z!

03Z33 · 2007-10-05 15:09:41

Walked out to my car yesterday morning to this: http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_103_full.jpg When I parked there I didn't even think to look up at the tree, to check for loose branches... but I now remember that the landscaping company was trimming trees in the neighborhood all day yesterday. The damage isn't too bad, just a broken mirror, some scratches and a couple of dents in the roof. I still get upset though everytime something happens to this car, I have horrible luck with it! Here are some more pics I took, maybe some of you will find it funny :icon38: http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_96_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_97_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_98_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_99_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_100_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_101_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_102_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_104_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_105_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_106_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_107_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_108_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_109_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_110_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_111_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_112_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_113_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_114_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_115_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_116_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_117_full.jpg http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/6/web/690000-690999/690990_118_full.jpg

Damn. It looked like your car was trying to hide from you. He just needs to find a bigger tree next time haha. But damn I hope that carbon hood and hatch are ok.

The tree won for sure

Luckily the hood and hatch weren't damaged.

I've had a few people say it looked like a camo Z

It almost looks like some one "placed" the tree on the car, but when you see the tree above and the way the branch broke, it makes more sense. I should have taken a pic of the tree above.

damn that sucks man, sue the company for not clearing all the trees and get your Z fixed up, and definitely change out those gross looking rims.

03Z33, Sounds like the landscaping company was hired by the city, so I would call the city and report what happened. Ultimately you're going to want to talk to the landscaping company and report it. They'll have insurance to cover this sort of thing. If the landscaping company gives you problems, the city will have a certificate of insurance on file and can tell you who the landscapers insurance is and you can file the claim yourself.

Sorry to hear about the car. Hopefully you can get everything taken care of without any cost to you.

Oh **** Jeff that really sucks but I learned the hard way parking under a tree once. I had all these sap spots all over my Z which took alot of muscle and clay to get that **** off.
