Default I have the worst luck

Ok well i just need to vent. Two weeks ago someone backed into me causeing about 500 dollars worth of damage to the rear bumper, basicaly a new bumper and a repaint. Ok then two days ago some one broke my winsheild, i walked into a store 15 min later i have a giant circle of cracks in my win sheild. And tonight i went to my friends house to wach the lotr rotk and his brother comes into the house to informe me someone backed into my car front bumper this time . His hitch on his truck hit the h emblem on the front of the car, plus it bent my brand new cucso front rad plate. Wow that sucks i dont know what next maybe a door or the trunk. Ahh im done but i just had to vent. But i have insurance for both of the people who dented in the bumpers, so i guess it not horrible. Well any sugesstions or coforting words would be appreciated.

If it makes you feel any better, last week I reversed into a wall at Acura. I scraped my rear bumper and my cwest kit. The body shop estimated $792 in damages.

Dont feel bad man... your car lives outdoors, its bound to get a few bumps and scrapes... just be sure to always have a plan B (ex: Full Coverage insurance)... aside from that, like you said, youve got the two fools' insurance... + as long as your car's frame and motor/tranny are alright... then your good to go

There are children starving in China. (And the US for that matter.) Kinda makes a few dings seem trivial.

I have a small scrape on my rear bumper right behind the rear driver side wheel. It's not noticeable when the car is dirty but when its clean it is a bit noticeable. I also have a nick on my bumper from somebody hitting it. Again... not noticeable when dirty but somewhat when clean.

I keep it in a garage but I do plan to get a second car very soon. Should I get a new bumper, paint it and have it put on or am I being too anal??? I hate this anal trait about my car. It's in mint condition other than those two small blemishes. How much would I be looking at if I decide to fix it?
