Sorry to see, hopefully someone didn't do on purpose but maybe the wind. Happened to me in Maxima once, I was parked far away and a cart came crashing into me while I was sitting in hit. Left a big dent.

Im so pissed off. I parked nowhere near the cart carousel but it left a dent and obviously many scratches. someone threw it at my car or the wind carried the cart across the lot to pick up enough momentum to do this

ouch, that sucks.

yah, one of my earlier hobby cars got hit by a cart too on a windy day. wat really pissed me off was i was only there for 10-15sec to pickup my wife and boom!

i was still in the car.

that's when i decided to take a pdr training course and fix dings and most touchup-able damage myself.

i had pictures in my albums page of the damages ive fixed with pdr + touchup, but some f-heads reported me last week so they are all gone.

I havent been so mad since the day some stupid private looked down the barrel of his rifle to see if there was a bullet in the chamber.
I guess ill get a body shops opinion tomorrow maybe

Ouch, sorry to hear that. But from the looks of it, I think it can buff out.

gbrettin · 03-11-2014, 10:59 PM

AGhhh god man.. That sucks. Some people just don't care. :|

Are you close to GR? I have all the tools/polishes to try and buff it out if you want. Nothing I personally can do about the dent but might save you a couple bucks if it doesnt need to be repainted. Can you catch your fingernail on the scratches?

Black Cherry sadness...

Probably about 100 miles from grand rapids. I have a buddy who lives there though, so if your serious and if its something that can be buffed out I could definately make the trip there and stay with my friend for a day or so as well. And yes, my fingernails do catch on most of them

madwi · 03-11-2014, 11:08 PM

If they are that deep that your fingernail is catching, not something a buff would take out, at least in my experience. It could reduce the look a lot but they would still be there.

Wow man that sucks , i found carts against my F350 more than once and it always pissed me off
I hope it was a accident and not some dumb lo-life thats jealous

maizenblue · 03-11-2014, 11:11 PM

Well, ill get quotes tomorrow and hope for the best. I dont have much cash lying around to spend on cosmetics right now so i might just have to settle with leaving it how it is.

It only enrages me more knowing it most likely was done on purpose. I parked a decent distance away from everyone else
