I'm so angry with myself right now. Words cannot explain how pissed I am right now, because of my stupid silly mistake. I was coming out of my garage and it's so damn tight and as I was coming out, I have no idea why I was not paying attention at this very time, I scared my side view mirror. It make the worst crunching noise. Upon inspection the mirror is okay but some of the paint came out, and the rest can be removed by polish. This sucks so how much is it going to cost?

Picture below:

I am sorry to hear.

GEEo · 10-25-2011, 12:35 AM

Damm that sucks man!

I've had my share of garage accidents! but fortunately only minor ones!

s1k0 · 10-25-2011, 12:55 AM

This is pretty minor. It's just sucks because the paint was removed just at the darkest spot. I just removed the rest with some tooth paste.

I just don't feel like driving it now. I'm so bummed out...

oh man that sucks. that shouldnt really be that expensive to fix.

Could be worse...this guy's mirror is fine...

Accidents happen to even the best of drivers. You were lucky that it was a minor scratch. You learned the cheap way. I am glad you were able to fix it easily and that it was just a minor scratch.

Wow there is no way anyone could have survived that.:(

Sorry to hear. Minor scrape and screwup in your case(could have been worse) but yeah it would make you feel sick. We all make them. Was cleaning the front windshield and somehow forgot to put wiper back down. Was messing with the hood and scraped back of stripe about an inch or so minor but what a dumbazz.

Ouch in our old house. Wife's friend accidentally put the garage door down on our old car as they were backing out guess the beam was between the wheels

Buckled Door and needed new hood.

Actually: The driver was alone in the car and WALKED AWAY with a minor nick on his forehead and a very SORE wallet. Amazing.

vesi · 10-25-2011, 09:05 AM

Damn, maybe its best that I don't have a garage.

Forcer · 10-25-2011, 02:47 PM

Lol been there done that, Mine actually ripped the mirror off, but no paint damage and looks perfect as i temporaraly put it back on =) but yours, u will need to repaint/new one, i dont think it would cost more then 250$ if u have to replace, mabey even 100$ if u paint it..

I have too. I slammed my dads car into the garage while he was on vacation. I had no idea that the steering wheel was turned once and It looked straight so I gave it a little gas and bam right into the brick pillar.

I was only 15 with a drivers permit. Total damages to the car and house ended up being around $3500.

ROD_SS · 10-25-2011, 03:30 PM

Sorry to thread jack.. What is the story behind this wreck????
