F***ing Kids....

I guess the curse was bound to hit me...woke up this morning to a very unpleasant suprise, after shoveling 6" of snow off the sidewalk last night. Some punkass kid on his way to school took the liberty of denting my passanger side door with something...not once...but four times...as he/she walked by. What the f**k is up with kids these days, no respect for other peoples property, shit im in a pissy mood today....

OUCH!!!!! Those damn kids.....~!

Dude, im sorry man. I hate when I come out to my car and find dings. If it makes you feel any better I have about 7-8 of them all over the car. Plus I swear G's attract dings...

What type of object do you think made the dent?
It looks almost like someone punched the hell out of it.

I have no idea, there was some grey plastic residue in the dent that I rubbed out, so your guess is as good as mine. Something an elementary school kid would carry....like a 9mm...

Some people just dont have any respect.. :(


You'll need a new trim piece but the dents look like you can fix them at a paintless dent repair place. The grey residue should buff out w/ some compound and then a nice buff job.

How do you know it was fucking kids? Maybe it was a fucking
ex-girlfriend:angryfire !!

When shit like this happens just do what I do:
1- Take a deep breath
2- Count to 10
3- Then smash the nearest thing you can get your hands on and regret it later:biggrin2: !!!!!!!!!!!!

I know how you feel bro!:newburn: :zx11pisse :angryfire

Hope dents pull out!
f-bomb!:smoker2:
""G"-sus! loves you!"

Damn, that's gotta suck .. no one hurts the Red G's!!! We are brothers!

You need to setup a camera in your driveway somewhere - catch the culprit.

But those dents are awefully weird ... maybe when you were shoveling the end of the shovel did the dents? :)

I remember one day I was driving by a school and I saw this kid on the sidewalk with his friend pick something off of the ground... as I was driving, they started looking at my car and as I was approaching them, you could see they were ready to throw something (I was the target). Instead of speeding up, because I knew they were going to throw something, I braked and it was just my luck, that when I braked, they threw rocks on the main road! .. I pulled down my window and yelled, "you fuckers are dead". Being kids, they started running away. I had hoped to pull over and chase them and drag them by their collars to the school, which was right there - but because of the amount of traffic on the road, I couldn't turn into a side street to park the car and chase them, so they were lucky to have escaped!

Just the other day there were 3 or 4 kids who decided it would be fun to smash beer bottles all over the middle of the street. Amazed me how out of control they were.
Don't worry though, what they do will come back three-fold and maybe when they get a car of their own and someone smashes the hell out of it they will think twice about what they did.

I would go crazy if some kid did that to my car. When I get really mad, I jump in my car and drive like a bat out of hell. I dont go out and beat up on other peoples stuff.

Those are some strange ass dents, never seen anything like that.

You got that right Bro!!! I was thinking the same thing, just need to find a camera to set up. I guess Im just in the bad side of town, about two years ago my place got broken into and I lost about $8K of home theater gear (thank god for insurance and fortunately they took nothing that couldnt be replaced!)
I know I didnt hit the car when shoveling, it was no where near it and fortunately for me all my ex-girlfriends are in different states, unless they came and stalked me...hum....but I think they would have done more to me personally than the car (long stories).
I have no idea what caused the dents, hopefully ill find a paintless repair shop in Albuquerque sometime soon...
Thanks for the support guys, this is one cool place to turn to....Im also thinking of taking up a recreational drug of sorts, my stress level is on the high side these days....

I feel your pain!!

came out one day- rear right corner window was smashed in...

those little corner windows are more expensive than the driver's door window (apparently the driver's door is more susceptible to breaking so it's cheaper)...

AND...

some f/cking kid on a bike (it had to be a bike) scraped my front left bumper side... like he fell over ( i could tell because the rear view mirror was pushed forward like he/she was riding and then the handle bar hit the mirror- probably smacking them into my bumper... )

AND...

right before christmas- some thief broke into my car from the passenger's side and TOTALLY REAMED the keyhole and broke into the car stealing the weirdest things: sleeping bag/camera/remote for car stereo/air freshener/car manual (maybe he/she had a G20 too???)

so- to this day- i have a reamed keyhole... don't know where to get it fixed... and don't wanna pay an arm/leg to get it fixed...

my easy fix: putting a yellow happy face sticker over it...

eh....

so- if u see a lil red g20 with the happy face sticker on it...

it's me.

:smoker:

LOL cliff! - that is strange ..stealing a sleeping bag? .. Maybe it was a homeless person. The smiley face thing is hilarious, lol.

Good to see another red g :) red power!

damn sucks dude, happened to me too when I had a red car before. something about red and me..just attracts trouble. :(

Yeah man, I feel you pain too. Thats were the little bastards tried to break into my car, luckily they weren't successful, or they could have taken alot of shit too. My driver's side rear door fixed window has a big O scratched into where the little bastards tried to get in.

so i'm coming up onto a clump of cars at 80mph in the far left lane and suddenly this fat cadillac pulls out in front of me to pass the car in front of them...

so- what do i do?? i do what EVERY g20 does when this happens...

ATTEMPTS TO PASS!!!!

So i swerve left in traditional race car fashion into the open concrete area where you're not supposed to drive... and i increase speed... YES- INCREASE SPEED...

suddenly- the concrete road... RUNS OUT!!!!! THERE IS NO MORE ROAD.

and i go plunging into a sea of small rocks and dirt and weeds in between the two highways... so i hit the brakes and notice- "i'm going to go into oncoming traffic!!!!!" so i swerve right and the car pops back onto the highway and suddenly i'm like- "ahhhhhhhhhh- now i'm going to hit other cars!!!!!!" so i swerve left and my tires are still spinning like mad and they spit me back out onto the dirt and i swerve one last time and my car spins to a stop... i swear i thought i was dead or if i wasn't- i was going to step outside of my car and wish i was because of the damage to the car...

i get out- NO DAMAGE!!!!!!! (except for a leak in a tire i noticed later that night)

so a few cars stop- and they come by and ask if i'm ok...

one of my fog lights is dangling from the bumper and my car looks like it's got an eyeball hanging... thank god i'm still alive...

but do i learn??? hell no!~

So i'm driving along on the fourth of july and i'm trucking along at 90mph... and i begin to realize that the alignement i did the other day really helped and so i increase in speed, and then suddenly i look in my rear view mirror... and yep- u guessed it- red and blue lights...

i pull over and the police officer comes to the window...
asks me why i was going so quickly... and then just breaks the news to me that i'm going to be arrested for criminal speed...

:eek:

8 hours later (i missed all the fireworks) and after bailing my car out of the impound lot with the little cash i happened to have and some CDs that i bartered with the guy at the lot... i finally get home at 3am...

home to a pair of parents who tell me- "clifford- if you wanna party your life away- that's fine with us"...

hahahaa- little do they know...


*sigh*

hopefully there aren't too many colorful stories like that...

Man cliffy, you're one crazy guy :) ...

It's a good thing you are alive - that sounds like a pretty dangerous thing to have went through.

Sometimes I watch TRAUMA LIFE IN THE ER on TLC and watch the people there after car accidents and it opens my eyes to stop driving fast and take it easy. I don't want to end up like some of those people did on that show .. it's pretty scary, to say the least.

ya its amazing what has to happen to open peoples eyes, after crashing my car, i couldnt believe i was alive. honestly, i do still drive fast now and then, but im more aware of what cars can do, but then again everyone speeds. if you are going to speed, pay attention to everything thats happening, dont let the radio or anything else distract you. and another thing, all kids arent punks. it should be f***ing PUNK kids! :D

it's tough not racing..

i know...

fellas- u have no idea the temptations i have to put up with... to walk by two 1998 GS300/GS400s to go to my little 1993 g20

argh.

SORRY man..... feel your pain.... been there....... :(

You know what i would do if some little kid hit my car with something....

I'd GUT HIS ASS.....i have enough dings in my car without the help of little assholes.

When i used to have my 91 SE-R some fucking bastard through a boulder through my back window and broke a plastic panel in the back. I say boulder because it was the size of a mini basketball. Nothing is like waking up to you parents saying YOUR CARS BEEN ROBBED. Nothing was taken thank god but i'd love to kick the shit out of those assholes.:mad:
I figure they were like hey theres a nice car thats ruin that guys day since my ass still hurts from billy pounding it and that ruined my day....fucking bitches

this happened 8 hours ago...

on the freeway- closing in on a group of cars and changing lanes to the far right one from the far left.

some dump truck is in the far right lane and he SWERVES to change lanes to the left like he's driving some f/cking formula one race car and in the process- upheaves a bunch of dirtclods and the nice little rocks inside them onto the road...

me: looking like :eek: and watching and wincing as all these dirtclods hit my car... (i couldn't swerve and i was 20 ft behind this guy)

i'm sure the guy in the truck was all :finger:

so- anyways- i take the battered g20 home and take a gander at the damage...

as i suspected...
lil chip here and there... and there... and there... and there... and there.. and there...

argh...

the paint on our g20s is very very thin...

i don't know how thin it is on the p11s- but on the p10s- i could chip the paint JUST BY LOOKING AT IT WRONG!

*sigh*

ok-

enough for today...

c.

hey guys, i have a big old question. i just recently bought an 2002 g20 and i'm looking to have some modifications done. i want to clear the corners and taillamps, but i can't figure out where to go to buy the clear lenses. is there any place on the internet that sells these things for a g20? i also want to clear the side marker, if possible. thanks! :frog:

Brian, buddy, you postin' in da WRONG thread! Post a new topic cause no one will reply to you here!

i need help! where can i get clear lenses for my headlight corners, tail lights and side markers? i drive a new g20, and i can't find those anywhere!

whoops, sorry guys, i don't know what the hell i'm doing. wrong thread!

Don't know about you guys, but racing other traffic has never caused me a problem, I only get hit When I'm stationary.

First one, about 5 years ago, waiting at a junction, guy behind me only just passed his test forgets that if you bring the clutch up while it's still in gear, the car moves forwards, so he shunts my poor little escort ouit on to the main road. Smashed in the rear end, but i was ok. Number plate survived :)

Second one. Same escort. About two years ago. Waiting at a pedestrian crossing for the lights to go green, moron in the transit (Light goods van, though there's nothing light about it) behind me forgets how his brakes work. Rear end or the car is pushed in about 14 inches, Roof buckled up, rear doors pushed over the front doors sealing them shut, my seat buckled and I end up in the back seat looking up through my sunroof thinking "Sky?????? That's not right."

When I work out what happened and I sit up, my car is forty yards down the road on the wrong side. The transit was up the kerb on the pavement by the crossing.

After that I spent six months in physio and still have a permanently screwed shoulder, my military career is gone and so is my poor escort. (got a Primera GT now, so it's not all bad)

What have I learned from this?
I can race all I like, cos I'll only get hurt when I'm STOPPED!!!



As for you Yahnozha, I say dent the kids and see how they like it.

Oh, My plate still survived so I've kept it a a souvenier (sp?)

Hey Atomic_G :)

Who is the manufacture of your eye "lids"!? :)

Hey im only 15 and I wouldnt do something that but I also know how you feel.I have a 1987 Cadillac Sixty Special thats mine and that I dropped about $1,500 into it when I got it and we took it to my bro's basketball game one night,came out after the game and found that my windshield was almost completly covered in shaving creem.I know it only shaving creem but its also my car.I wanted to kill.Never did find out who the little basterd was though.

Dude.. mostlikly it was a chick that did it.. Cuz u probably broke her little heart..trust me.. my boy broke up with his chick and like 3 days later.. his entire car was keyed up.. or it could have been some hater.. hating on u.. cuz, u got the better car.

Well I know that my car is MUCH better than anything my friends and classmates are driving so you are probably right, but I have not had a girl friend in quite awhile but have turned down a few offers so u may be correct there.That must have sucked for your son.What was he driving at the time?

nah kid not my son, i ment my boy.... anyways he was driving a 99 Maxima SE... his shit was messed up,, for real... cost him like 2 g's jus for the paint job...
