Here is the damage!!!

 

ouch, that hurts :'(.

 

yeah, I scraped my bumper only 4 days after ED pick-up when we were in Paris, and man was I sick about it. I had to have the entire bumper removed and repainted in order to put it back. aaarrrghh!!!!!

I feel much happier now that it is fixed

 

yikes, that's not something we want to witness neither :'(.

 

Ouch!

 

ouch.. i CONFESS I did the same after I install my Hartges... wasn't paying attention to AS and the rear passenfer tire hit the curb in a turn..big lip scratch... thatnk GOD when I took it for service a few weeks later the dealer did another one to the same rim so they end up fixing everything for FREE ..so far no more scratches

 

Count me in for a minor brush as well. What kills me is that I did it after months of ownership! I was just having a little too much fun -- I was heading into a 90 degree right hander carrying some significant speed. I got to the turn, went hard on the brakes, clicked the SMG down two gears, and turned the wheel. What I didn't expect was that another car was coming up the road I was turning onto and was pretty much in the middle of the road instead of on his side of the road. The only thing I could do was correct a little with more steering which caused me to curb the rear right.

Oh well, I figure now I won't worry so much when I let others drive the car! I also figure I'll do it again a few times so I'm not hurrying to get anything fixed just yet.

 

I guess I am just darned lucky, so far. But, then I haven't been crowded by another car as you were. I have actually been cruising along at around 50 mph and gotten a bit close to the curb and had it move me back on line -- all with no curb rash.

As a side note, one thing that I am amazed at is the precision of knowing where the curb is, on both sides. In long curves to the left, I keep getting closer and closer to the inside because I can sense exactly where the curb is.
