I've had such a ****ty week :( The S got hit two times :*(
My dive trip to the Dry Tortugas was cancelled, my car gets hit 2 times, I get a ticket (which I'm FURIOUS about), and I'm getting sick.
I'm so depressed right now, it's Friday night and I couldn't give a **** less about it.
The S4 got hit 2 times this week, both times while parked, and these are the first accidents I've ever been in...
First, here are the pictures of where the trim tabs on my friend's boat dug into my hood (this was 2 days ago). I was parked behind him, he knew I was there, saw me, and still backed up into me.
Ouch.

Yup, It's dented in.

The other side.

The estimate for this was about $550, so I'm entertaining the idea of getting a carbon fiber hood. We didn't involve the cops with this accident, my friend is paying for the repair.
Then today, I got hit by a school bus that was trying to make a sharp turn. Here are the pics:

I was in a parking lot, waiting to pull out and she scraped up against me. I was stopped, with my car in nuetral, foot on the brake, completely stopped, but the officers (first one left, another took over the "investigation" pff..) didn't believe my story and they gave ME a ticket. Improper backing, 3 points. They said that I backed up and contributed to the accident!
The cop said that he wouldnt take it personally if I took it to court, so I said "Good. See you there."

No, no points on my liscense, and I don't plan on keepin these on there very long at all.
I have a few friends that wittnesed the accident that can vouch for me in court.
I've had plenty of tickets but I always take care of the points.
