My plate number? Huh? What do you mean?

It was a Sierra 4x4.

Basically what happened was i was driving past the parking stalls and a lady was coming from the other way. There was only room for 1 so I stopped to wait for her to go, but she stopped too. Guy in the truck saw her stop and thought she was stopping for him so he backed out.... into me. He pulled back into the parking space, the lady who watched the whole thing took off as fast as she possibly could, and I pulled into the spot beside him. He said just that, he couldn't see me, car is so low (I'm also stock height), apologized, did the info exchange, apologized again and then thanked me for not freaking out.
I called it in when I got home, as did he, and it's going in on Monday to get all fixed up.

Unbelievable past 2 weeks.
Coming down Bear Mountain last night a cat decided to jump out between me and the car in front of me. Clipped the passenger corner of my bumper and blew my front lip to pieces and broke some tabs off the bumper itself. Cat was okay, (at least it ran off, probably stunned) but that just finalized the new bumper purchase. Was going to finally get coilovers but I suppose it will have to wait again. Jeeeeez.

Tell me about it Dave. Not terribly impressed with the automotive portion of my last 2 weeks.

Car goes in for the side repairs tomorrow morning, and I just ordered a new front bumper now. Should look good once it's all back together.
