Default i have a new mortal enemy.

So i was driving my scion tc home from practice today, same old same old. i take the same way to get home everyday from practice the past 2 years. theres this one intersection where i basically make a u turn up a hill. nothing every went wrong i was always pretty careful about making the right turn. today seemed no different than any other day. untill i heard a THUMP scratching noise. i was terrified i pulled into a parking lot and jumped out of my car. nothing appeared to look wrong...until i looked under the front bumper. theres like a 1 1/2 inch scratch of the paint of the bottom of the bumper. i look down the road and i see the culprit A ROCK GOD DAMN THEM TO HELL. I couldn't see it since theres a blind spot in making the turn. ugg would touch paint make it look normal again? or what? i hate rocks. burn them all. shoot them on sight. execute them i dont care.

btw its bsp scion.

So am I to understand your new mortal enemy is.. a rock? Or is it rocks in general? That's gonna be an uphill battle, as the planet is pretty much made out of rock.

---maybe a front lip will be able to hide it. Just avoid the psycho rock, man . I've had a few scrapes underneath my front bumper bec. of steep driveways, etc. Solution? Lip Kit to hide the scrapes + more awareness to where I drive my car. Lesson learned.

Did the rocks look like this? ...


There's probably a zillion dings under the front bumper. Your new ding is just a bit more noticeable. If it
bothers you, just cover it with touch up paint. No need going all out when you're just going to get more dings.
