Default Cursed (with pics)

My cars are cursed. Someone did this to my tC while I was at work yesterday (Sunday). I washed my car Saturday night and didn't see it. Sunday, I drove to work and home only. I parked behind the building, only exposing my driver's side. No one ever parks there. Wonderful. It will get repaired in the Spring. There's this guy about 45 min. away that does body work without assessing the damage to the VIN so people can track it and crap. He's like a part of the family now, lol.

My Mustang got a hit and run last week. The whole passenger's side.

No pics of that, but here's my tC.

If that's the side skirt that's pretty similar to my situation...I ran into the median at the damn bank and scraped it all to hell. I just bought a new side skirt instead of getting it repaired for the same reason as u (the vin tracking crap) who came up with that idea anyways

If you get it repaired with your insurance or at a dealer, etc. The repair will be listed under the car's VIN number. So when you sell your car or trade it in, all people have to do is do a carfax on your car with your Vin number and they'll be able to pull up you had repair work done, etc.
