So I was exiting a parking lot when all of a sudden mister PoPo come behind me and I am about to make a left...... Now as I'm doing this I realize this is a strange looking street and am not sure if I am allowed to make a left turn.... So I turn my wheel the opposite direction while exiting on the street and BOOM. the rear end of my just cleaned 530i falls off the curb....... the sound was horrible.... and hence the title of this thread SH%T, F$CK..... oh well $450 for a repair I am so not stoked

I'm sorry about that, but, it's not that big damage, bodyshop can make a local repair, without problem.

sorry to hear about that but at least the damage is minor and can be fixed without any long-lasting effects. i got "love tapped" the other day at a drive-through (of all places). I'm saying to myself, "how dim-witted do you have to be to hit someone in front of you at a drive through?" the thing is, she continued to follow so close that my parking radar was lighting up red. i finally had to get out and tell her something.

Have you ever been to Daphnes/Coffee Bean/Carls Jr in Newport Beach off of Bison and Mac Arthur? I think I've seen your car before.
