aghh.... sometime yesterday someone... i guess in a truck, hit my Versa while it was parked in front of my garage. :facepalm:

They got the rear door on the drivers side... the door kind of dented in and theres an area of about a 6 inch diameter of deep scratches. I looked around at all the trucks/vans in the complex... but almost EVERY SINGLE ONE has damaged corners. So there's no way of knowing.

anyone know of a place online where i can order an inexpensive digital recorder for security cameras?

soooooo mad.

I'm sorry to hear that man, I lived at an apt. for 4 years. My motorcycle and car were both messed with several times. Everything from bumps, to break in, luckily neither was stolen. After enough of cops showing up to say "what do you want me to do about it dur" I moved into a rental house. I always thought about security cameras. I would suggest pushing for it in apartment security or make a big deal about it to your local politician in need of votes. Security of public property shouldn't have to come out of your pocket.

got the dent out, and after buffing for 30 minutes off and on the smaller scratches are no longer visible. I should have taken before and after shots. lol.

just got back from the dealer with some k23 touch up paint... going to try to fill and buff some more.

:facepalm:

Sorry to hear that ... I would be very upset to ...
Were you parked on a street? Or in your driveway?
This is one reason why I NEVER park on our street, she's either in the garage or in the driveway.
We live near the bend in our street so people come flying through it and we've had numerous cars end up on our front lawn in the past and hit the street light on our lawn. A few cars have ended up in people's front doors ... some people are just ridiculous and careless when driving.

well, i live in an apartment complex. but I have a corner garage for my s13... I usually park the Versa in front of the garage because theres a curb to one side, and no parking to the right... just a pole. I guess someone was turning around and backed into it.

But... to protect myself and my car... i spent my day off installing a 4 channel video security system hooked to a computer in my garage. Everything is working well and if anyone hits the car, I'll know who this time. :yesnod

How did you get the dent out?

Reason I ask is just yesterday my Versa got a ding on the rear hatch. I'll have to put up pics, it is on the corner, right below the window on the driver's side....
