Well, today started out as a very good day. My girlfriend made me breakfast before work and on my way to work there was another stang, we ended up cruising for a 20 minutes before I had to take my exit. This is when it gets to be a bad Friday. I pull into work and look for a nice close parking spot. So I drive to the front and find one. The spot was a little tight but I thought I could fit. Of course what happens next I hit the stupid car in the spot next to me. No scratch or dent to that car but my bumper now has a nice white scratch on it. Looks like it can probably be buffed out. Even though it’s just a little scratch it still ticks me off and not a good start to my day.

lol Rule #1: Don't park your car between two other cars if you care about it what so ever.

I'm sure it'll buff out, turn that frown upside down and have a better day! lol

My rule: If there is ever any question about the size of the space, it gets bypassed no matter which vehicle I'm in.

The Stang gets parked way far out where the other Stangs, Bimmers, and Audis are.

wheeeew, I thought this was going to be another wreck thread. Sorry about that. I just did something bad too about 10 hours ago. I painted the Termis brakes but my socket broke when loosining the lugs and I put a scratch through the paint on one of the rear wheels, it actually brought a tear Now I gotta figure out their color and get touch up paint

Had that happen 2 years ago. Cost $500 to have it fixed.

Well, my weekend jut got as bad as it can get. I just broke up with my girlfriend after being together for 2 years . I’m the one that did the breaking up part but it still hurts. I’m trying to stay in good spirits by telling my self I can put more money now towards building up the stang. Though right now I don’t feel like doing much of anything. Happy Easter to me .

That's a crappy weekend man sorry to hear.

I always thought i was better off parking clear out in the open, away from every other car...and that's exactly what i've always done since the day i got the car.

...but remember, as soon as you move it away from all the other cars...it stands out like a sore thumb and then you're asking for a good keying and/or tire slashing instead of a lil paint on the door or fender.
