Default Guess my time has finally come. Never thought it'd happen though.

Woke up this morning to all this..







No comprehensive on my insurance thanks to my mom fighting me last year.. Saying I don't need that on such an old car. Well I got that **** now.

There are also a couple other spots they shot it with a BB gun on my rear QP and my hood got bent and paint chipped from the smashing on the fender. My body guy said 1500 in damage to fix the trunk and repaint it with holes filled in, touch up the QP, both doors, and redo the fender.

Worst week ever. Also got my rear main seal and crankshaft seal that I have to do too.

OH WTF dude! man that sucks! You gotta have comprehensive regardless of what year car you got. Haters always gonna hate. Maybe swing by a auto recycler and see if they have a trunk and fender and glass with the same color and maybe install it yourself.

Yeah I already got my mechanic looking at the junk yard for a fender for me and glass. What really sucks is that I just got my Llumar tint installed this monday and now i'm going to have to get it re-installed on that window thanks to the person who did this.

I have an idea, because I have an open harassment case, but even the police told me the only way they can prove it is if he comes out and says he did it, which I know he won't, so there's no use.

Yeah I know right? Lol.. I said forget what she says now and added comprehensive a couple hours ago, so if whoever did it comes back for more i'll be good. I'm really just looking for a fender right now, glass should be covered, but I need a passenger side fender. Got my mechanic looking for one in the junk yard, so hopefully we come across one.

Can't park in the garage cause both parents cars take it up, so i'm stuck on the street.

But yeah she was planning on going to Grand Cayman island and taking me and my brother to visit my aunt, i'm going to tell her i'm not going and she can spend that 800 on helping me fix back up my damn car since she was the one who kept fighting me for no comprehensive.

I got an idea, but like I said I can't prove it without him coming right out and saying it so it's no use in pursuing.

Yeah if I ever find out who did it i'll prolly beat their face with my breaker bar, lol.

haha, I'm calling shenanigans on all the "getting mad at your mom" bs.

If you're over 18, still you're legally an adult and can go join the army and kill someone or die for your country legally.

Granted the insurance companies don't see it that way, so if you're under 25 in a different class so it's financially better to do it as a family plan.

But if you don't like things, go get your own insurance or pay the difference for the part of the insurance you think you wanted. Don't get mad, find a solution.

While I'm sorry this happened to you, it's nothing serious in terms of it can be solved with money. When you look back on this later, you'll see the big things in your life that couldn't be solved with money were the things that were more important
