I swear... I have had the past weeks from hell. Stupid little **** that annoys the hell outta me is happening. First the car gets egged... then my Nissan emblem falls off or someone yanked it. Today I was driving along and some dumbass forgot to properly fix his license plate to the car... it comes off gets run over by his rear tire and is flung into my car. So I now have eaten finish on the door panel, a nice paint removal crater where the egg hit, and a nice 3" scar where I got nailed by a license plate. Also a week before the car got egged I nailed a peice of tire going about 70mph... that chipped a little paint off, I had no where to go cause of Austins LOVELY traffic.

Sorry to hear about your luck but I guess you could say that it can only get better.

My wife came home yesterday and left the mailbox door open and proceeded to pull into the drive. Nice scratch the length of the car.

Feel even more frustrated because I could not control it.

Maybe it is time for some of those bullet hole decals until you get that paintjob you wanted.

It is just a car and think now that you have enough appearance problems that maybe you should just focus on the inside and mechanicals. Nice to blow away a pretty looking stock car with a beat up sleeper.:ylsuper

Damn that sucks!!!

It does seem though that when things like that happen it is followed by several other freak occurrences. Good luck with your body shop estimates! :bash

:shocked Yikes dude!! Is your Karma out of balance or some hippie crap like that? If you can't afford paint, just grin and bear it and cover the worn spots with primer. It's ugly, but it'll stop rust.

It should work, it was that other person's fault for not "properly" securing their liscense plate.

That should work, just see how much of the damage can be BELEIVEABLy blamed on the plate, and you should be good to go. just whatever happens, DO NOT LISTEN TO JUICEMAN!!!sorry man, but i cant sit here and do nothing while someone defaces a 240 with bullet hole stickers!!!

Nismo,

I'm sorry to hear about all the nasty occurrences.If you can get any $$ from the dude with the license plate,invest it in your engine & such.Ugly car w/killer mod's beats super looking paint jobs.It DOES get better. Heck, it seems as though it can't get any worse.:arcadefre :peace

I'm all up for blowing away other cars, but i can't stomach my car looking like that (no offense).... i'd do some body work... fix the imperfections... then win the lottery and fix up the engine....

Holy **** i haven't been on the board for a week and your situation has gotten worse. Sorry to hear.

I say take the sucker off the road. Once you start fixing dents, worse ones will follow. Give up on the body now and pay attention to the interior and mods.

I park both of my cars on the street. They are abused. :mad:
