Someone hit my Z and I just facking noticed it:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:...last time I drove it was yesterday so I'm guessing it probably happened in a restaurant parking lot

Nice. Effing idiots don't care about nuthin. :(

roy'sz 09-29-2013 08:12 PM

I would go back to the restaurant and ask them to play back the security video if they have it. Then file a insurance claim for it. Good luck bro!!!

Riptide67 09-29-2013 08:14 PM

Ouch, sorry to see this. Made me cringe :/

No security camera unfortunately... I have a dashcam that I just wired to the fuse box because of this. it's too late but if there has to be a next time, I will catch those bastards!:shakes head:

I feel ya....I got a nice crease in my passenger door, it's hard to see but it's noticeable to me and those that would care about their car. I quit driving it to work other than a day or two a week because of that. It seems you can't park far enough away without drawing attention regardless of if you want it or not!

I'm really sorry, cause it sucks hard!!!

Z-Girl 12 09-29-2013 08:30 PM

Crap that sucks, soooo sorry

SouthArk370Z 09-29-2013 08:33 PM

Sorry to hear about this. Someone did a hit-and-run on my rear bumper cover and it had to be replaced. Hooray for insurance.

DOOMMONKEY777 09-29-2013 08:36 PM

Yeah, looks bad...now u can buy stillen bumper, well i would if my deductible wasnt 1k. Anywhoo it happends to me alll the time in nyc, sad to say kinda used to it.:shakes head:

Tribalpinoy91 09-29-2013 08:36 PM

I got those on both of my doors actually pass side looks like some one threw a brick at it. I dont care anymore about the cosmetics, all i concentrate on is engine, drive terrain and suspension. Everyone that sits in it loves the way it drives 2 of my friends bought a Z cuz of my Z lol. I still feel like a winner, even tho the car is alll scratched up.

Feel your pain, someone did this to me at the golf course today too. Luckily it is my Cadillac and not the Z. Still pissed.

LOL I'm guessing you haven't had all four of your wheels and tires stolen and left on incorrect jackpoints and dropped to the ground. Because thieves like to take their merry time and make sure they dont bang up your precious Z.

Oh and towing a car like the Z without any wheels is a riot!

Sorry man, I didn't mean to be insensitive about your situation...hope it works out for you.

Tribalpinoy91 09-29-2013 10:25 PM

No worries, you didn't know.didn't mean to direct it at you but yeah if you can avoid it in the first place thats great but man noone should see their baby out their stripped like that. WE LOVE OUR Zs!

alcheng 09-29-2013 10:46 PM

damn man...!!! sorry to see that happened...!!!

do you have a body shop can look after that?

looks like some SUV or whatever high-ride-height auto scratched it....

did you park very close to the enterence?

I always park as far as I can...

dAvenue 09-29-2013 11:23 PM

That sucks, man. Sorry about your car.

It's happened to me, too. I try to park as far away as I can because of that sh!t. :mad:

I parked right in front of the entrance, I could see the car... must have happened pretty quickly...

I'll go to Velocity in markham. but I might hold off and see if I can get a replacement front bumper. might have to show up like this for the cruise

is there any physical damage/crack on the bumper?

if not, I will suggest just repaint the bumper ASAP, only cost you $300-400 and probably a 3 days job.

you mentioned about getting a new bumper... you are not going to claim insurance, right?

If so, I will definitely not suggest you go through the insurance...!!

Since it was happened in a private parking lot and also a hit&run, the insurance company caught no one at fault thus deductible will apply, also, if it is only a scratch and the damage is repairable, they will not replace the bumper.

It will definitely take time and eventually your premium will increase a big time next year.

no no no......

jaedub 09-30-2013 01:17 AM

Damn, sorry to hear that. I was once a victim of hit-and-run as well. My damage wasn't prominent as yours (someone brushed against my rear bumper) but it still ruined my week. GL with the repairs.

GaleForce 09-30-2013 06:44 AM

That sucks :shakes head:

Boomer370 09-30-2013 08:12 AM

WTF man.......

That's a shitty thing to do... I've turned in so many people who just bump a car and then just leave... I just totally rage!

I've caught this lady in Mississauga, it was me an open spot and a done up Audi SUV. She drove in with her 1990 caravan and just totally smashed up the side from rear door to the front quarter panel.

She simply just backed out and parked it somewhere else! Then she had the nerve to walk by look at the damage and just walked into the mall.

I got out, took pictures of her and her car, wrote a note to the SUV owner and put it on his windshield.

Phil at Elite Concepts in Markham does an awesome job also, he has a 370z himself.

Fountainhead 09-30-2013 12:52 PM

Sorry to hear about that, it would depress me to no end. Hope everything turns out OK for you.
Anytime I park far away from other cars, I feel like I'm inviting vandalism (I got keyed once, just a quick couple of small circles). But if I park in a normal area then I worry about door/car damage. My wife doesn't understand, she wonders why I drive something I worry about so much. Sometimes I do too.
Got to try to be like DOOMMONKEY and just not care so much.

kenchan 09-30-2013 01:31 PM

dang, that sucks. sorry to see, op! :( :mad: indeed.

I agree, not too many people understand how we feel about our cars... I think I may let this stay on for now so I dont have to stress about the car so much...when it's not perfect, it's less stressful

kenchan 09-30-2013 01:50 PM

they do sell big bandaid decals for stuff like this... :ugh: :icon17:

Fountainhead 09-30-2013 03:18 PM

actually that may get me some mad street cred with the vandalizers.
They might laugh and move on instead of scraping it. Maybe I'll get some DUB MegaSpinners.

:tup: I always recommend Barry at Velocity when it comes to body work.

I also park as far away as I can, but I find some people will want to park next to me anyway just to mess with me, usually SUVs or trucks.

No one in my family wants to drive my car without me because they don't want to be the one to give my car it's first blemish. Its been 3 months already. :icon17:
