Default ARGH! Just venting about more body work!

In June, I just had my front cap replaced and whole hood repainted after someone hit my F/L corner in a parking lot and didn't leave any note.

Just discovered another scrape on the same corner and of course no note! Got the bumper cover and hood again! ARGH!

Another trip to Anchor!

</end rant>

Default Still fuming about it...I'm sure it was in my work garage and likely by a big SUV

I park in a section where people who come in early will pull up and park head out. So, there is a long line of cars parked head out. Given that I was hit on the front/left by the car parked to my left, and the building is further on to the left. The driver probably got into their tall SUV and with my little Z3 out of sight to their right they thought the spot was empty. They pulled out cutting sharp and thus hit me.

Also, I had to lay on the horn a few days ago when an Escalade tried to change lanes and I was in their blind spot.

PSA, if you are driving a big SUV. Watch out for the little guys even when parked!

Default I had to start parking in a different lot at work because of poor parking by others

I got tired of crawling in through the passenger side because of the clowns who liked to back into their space - and mine.

I wouldn't mind Lambo Orange if it was an actual LAMBO! ;-)
