Default Ugh, S4- 0 Yukon XL- 1 (x-post from RM forum)

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/83776/april_crunch.jpg"></center><p>I usually drive my 4Runner to work, I get dirty at work, I tow trailers and pick stuff up with my truck, I take the dog- I rarely drive my Audi to work.

On Friday I didn't have anything going on and it was a beautiful day, so I drove my baby. At lunch I parked far away from the restaraunt, on the very end of the row. As my Dad and I waited for our food we heard the waitress asking if anyone drove a blue Audi (stomach sinks, heartrate rises). I say "I do" and hear that my car was just hit in the lot, dammit.

A lady driving a giant rental Yukon had backed into my car, she later told me "it's so small, I didn't even see it". Luckily nobody was hurt, she has insurance, it was just a door-it can be fixed, all that touchy feely stuff.

I try to keep it in good shape, but it kills me that my commuter never gets hit, my friends who don't care about their cars in the least don't get hit, yet the rare day I take my car it gets drilled. Argh! I guess I just needed to vent to others who care... Thanks for listening.

Default Yep, it happens. Dumb lady in an Expedition *backed* into me at a toll plaza a couple months ago...

...hopefully, you had a scratch or door ding on that door already...

Default Sadly, no, have a ding in front door, back was perfect though...

Might try and get a lip spoiler painted at the same time though- lemons to lemonade right?

How'd you end up in your deal?

Default That dent looks like it could be pulled out. There is this guy that comes to our dealership and he

can do some amazing things. If you are around the MD area, I can put you in touch with him. You'll be surprised how much stuff can be fixed without a repaint. Your paint doesn't look to be chipped/cracked so I think it would work out.
