Lady turned too sharp and ended up hitting the corner of my bumper and scratched the rear half side of her windstar. Ripped off my plate too. Security came and all of a sudden a crowd started to happen lol. Exchanged information and the lady will pay for the damages at a shop she happens to be good friends with. It's not as bad as it looks but if you're like me, every little detail matters. Should I ask for a whole new bumper along with it repainted fresh? or just try and fix this up (mind you, it's like paper that's crushed and can't be smoothed out). Being that she's good friends with the shop owner, i would imagine they would try and take the easiest way out.. and for sh*ts and giggles, here's a pic of a g2 i took as well :lol: sorry if this is someone's car on here! http://img118.imageshack.us/img118/9268/dsc003652ko.jpg |
WELCOME TO B DOT!!!!!
hahaha.................... sucks dood sorry to hear that...we need to hook up..... No more nice Square 1 parking |
i'm a miss sq1 though.. pure eye candy and would ALWAYS get distracted by the ladies. Our code for work is, "LINE 1 guys!" hahah
but yea.. is shoppers world safe? |
sorry to hear about your car!
unfortunatly no shopping mall is safe, but from my experiences at shoppers world, alot of dumb people who like to do hit and runs in your case she didn't run lol. Whatever you do dont park infront of canadian tire its so congested and people drive extra stupid in that particular part of the lot. |
dude where did you work at square one?? i worked there last year, we had a code in our store too "bravo"!
|
Do not let her take charge of the situation - it's your car, her fault, choose a shop that will deal with you and do what pleases you. My suggestion is don't even go to the shop that she suggests.
|
the last thing you want is to have your bumper painted and get overspray all over your lights and lip and have the paint flake off because the surface wasn't properly prepped.
get some estimates from some reputable shops that you trust and have her compensate you fairly for the damages. |
I've been in a couple of these situations with previous cars and I had a standard contract drawn up from a law student friend of mine. If you're interested I can email it to you.

Ah crappy man - at last you caught the person in the act.
|
happened to me...new paintjob time
|
How retarded do you have to be to hit someone in a parking lot...your doing Max..30-40 km/h, WAY slower while turning.....It's the avoidable accidents that get me worked up....Sorry to hear man,

Like 50% of people on the roads can drive properly and only like 15% can drive well. The drivers license system is a joke.

for some reason I always see messed up driving whenever im in brampton. if i were you id check out this shop she knows... if it is second rate then go to a shop you are comfortable with. make sure you have all her insurance info before though, just incase she trys to get out of it. good luck
|
That's how I got hit, my first day at my new job. In the parking lot. Lucky the girl didn't runaway and confesed to everything.
When I worked at timmy's we had a code too "Window/Storefront" |
jeez.
how are you guys going to make fun of my g2 like that. :( |
---- that sucks man, but, i would advise against taking it to her shop where "she's good friends with the owner". ---- that. by law you can take it to whatever shop you want to.
|
i got 2 this winter on my car worse. so atleast your doin better than me
|
no where in bramladesh is it safe.
my first teg years back was broken into in my driveway. although its a nice city. sorry to hear the damage news man. I had similar damage, but i hit a construction pylon. |
sorry to hear... i for one would make her pay for the damages at a shop of MY choice...
|
you're lucky the girl was @ least honest...few years back, in the first week of owning my G2; some ------- hit and run..it cost me $500 to replace a whole door :(
My advice to you is, take it to the Acura dealership, get them to write down a quote for you, ask her for that much money, and then go somewhere you'd normally go and get it done for cheaper :) |
honest people are awesome!
