learn to use your mirrors..

I just pulled into a great parking spot on 1st ave. last night before I met with Brian to go to the mariner game. Lady was in the load/unload spot ahead of me and someone was trying to get the parking spot ahead of her. So she went to back up and let her in easier and didn't see my car over her spare tire...FJ cruiser with a tow hitch can really hurt our cars















so far on the list is new hood, bumper..and not sure what else..l cannot open my hood to get my things out which is really frustrating.

thanks buddy! yes it does suck...but I thought about that as she hit me. She was blown away that I wasn't yelling at her nor did I seem pissed at her and she told me I could punch her.. she felt so bad..I could understand what happened and see why. Those spare tires create a HUGE blindspot for anything..

I thought about it and in the end it can be fixed..why jump up and down and yell and scream..it won't fix anything when I could tell it was an honest mistake. Now if she was being really dumb and screwing around..I would probably be different..

the car will be fixed no one was hurt so I am happy about that

That sucks! AT FIRST I was like, dam sucks having a FG bumper, but I noticed the CF, that really SUCKS! Time to get a new CF hood!!!

I feel there should be a law about toe hooks! At least she didn't have the ball hitch in there!

Take it to Haury's on Lake City way, ask for Jeff, tell him Mike sent you.

Didn't know that, funny how it bulges like a metal one.

Since it's messed up, just use a broom handle or something to get it open.
