I have a really bad one on the face rear driver wheel after Melody ran over some unavoidable debris when two cars collided directly in front of her a good while back.

dang :eekdance: @ 2 cars collision directly in front of your wife.

the wheels are tuff because it's like a dual layer finish with that hyper silver color. you'll probably need to get that professionally done if the scratch is big. :ugh:

Yeah, it was at highway speed, too :eek: She was incredibly grateful to be in the Z because she had to wrench it over two lanes to the right to avoiding hitting them as well. She said the Z made the maneuver almost effortlessly at about 55 mph :tup: :driving:

Yeah, it's damn big. Its definitely more of a gouge than a scratch. There's a huge spot of black it's so deep :shakes head:

Here are the scratches from today with a dime for reference. It's the best I could do with a point 'n shoot camera. Not that I really want to see it any clearer :ugh2: I will do my best to avoid looking at it from now on :tup:

Those gouges look like the big one on my hood I got on I-10 driving to Nismo Fiesta last year. I'll show it to you on Sunday. I just ignore it when I wash my car. At shows, no one notices because I always open the hood. :tup:

Brilliant! :tup: My intakes are a lot prettier than the chips and scratches on the hood, so that works great :icon17:

As for ignoring it, I have plenty that I already try to ignore, so what's one more :tup:

I think Kenchan plays that clip loudly on his stereo in the Fit when he drives -- to cover up the shame.
