Second Post on this forum and I'm not happy about it..

So I looked at myself in the mirror today and decided this is the day I'm turning my life around. Going to get back into better shape, going to put all my focus into school and yada yada. Well I was starting with getting my car cleaned, since it was covered in salt dust. Well I go to my local car washing place (Will not name, because I still really like their service), all is well and send it in the garage thing to get the interior cleaned. They finish and pull it out the garage with another car in front of it. My car didn't seem like it was fully out but i thought they'll close the door after i pull out. Not the case. Door comes down as I'm re-adjusting my seat. Hits right on the edge of the back bumper and scratches and scrapes the bumper. Today is lost, I'm getting this fixed ASAP, then going back to sleep to try turning things around a different day. Car wash place is paying for repairs in full and I get a premium wash and interior clean as well next time which I will use, but on a less busy day where they can pay close attention to things.

Maybe the guy who closed it graduated from K-State?

Seriously though - sorry to hear about that!

At least they are paying for it, that should make your day better.

This made me laugh though, if that means anything.

I didn't know. But now I do so I won't make that mistake anymore.

This is my first car I've bought with my own hard earned cash and I was a little shocked that it actually happened, I just want it fixed and it to be just an old story behind me.
