i hate people!!!!

well today me and my sister are going to pep boys to get some wax so i can wax the g5. well its a 1 way exit and this ******** in a jeep thinks he can do what he wants and exit out the 1 way and its wide enought for 1 car. so i go to pull in here this moron comes so i try to miss him and sends me into the curb. now i have a nice fucked up rim because off this tool. so i got out looked go in my car and went after him and got hit plate number. well theres nothing i can do everyone is saying because its my word on his. so i went to the dealer and the guy who told me the car said its will be 500 for a new rim. but then hes like i have a buddy that fixes rims so ill give him a call monday. ill post pics of it tonight when i get home from work. im still so pissed off my cars not even a month old!

i tryed ebay but the rim isint on there. monday im going to bring it to the place and let them fix it he said its will be $150. i cant leave the rim like that because it makes me sick everytime i see it. i no i should have stoped and laid on the horn and made him back up but i was half in the the spot when i was turing in. people are to lazy they dont want to drive a extra 100ft to the right exit so they go out the non exit and **** people over like what happen to me.

heres a pic of the rim its not bad but its my first brand new car not even a month old and because of some ******** i have to look at this it didnt bend the rim thank god so i hope they can make it look brand new again.

If you didnt crack it id just wait to get one off ebay. That would probably be the cheapest way.

They are easy to fix. Just bondo it and sand and then wet sand. Primer and paint.

If he ran you off the road... sure it's your word against his... but I'd get the law on his ass anyways... can't hurt.

ooo something people do to my dad a lot (owns a small construction business, so he gets sued for BS stuff)
it also costs money to defend yourself and time. either in increased insurance or hiring a lawyer for a single case. just sue him for say $500 knowing itll cost him $600 to defend himself. then its cheaper for him to pay you than it is to pay the lawyer

Sad... but true... next time... stand your ground... if you are legally established in the lane... it's his fault...

and most people will hit the brakes before they hit someone.

That sucks. Sorry dude. But that ain't nothin. I curbed my right rear rim the second day I had the car because I wasn't used to the car. I scraped almost half the rim and about 2.5inches up one spoke.
