    e30 vs ignorant truck = :(

    parked my car on the street last night and found that a truck had backed over my hood and fender, realized it, then drove back off and away.

    sadface. i find i'm pacing around angry with no one to direct it at.

    scuffs are deeper than the paint....it's beyond buffing out, some spots to bare metal. first damage on the body in 23 years.


    bumper was also damaged, trim/lens/mounting broken. :-(

        Same thing happened to me at work, wasn't as bad and was painting the car anyway. Nobody bothered telling me though. And when confronting my boss nobody confessed. I don't work there anymore.

            i left a note on the house i thought was responsible....a woman called me asking what color my car was and she said it looks like her husband's car had white on it. ten minutes later i got a call from her husband and we're meeting at a local bodyshop in the morning. i'm a lucky SOB.

                              If you drive your e30 on stairs, you're gonna have a bad time.
