A friend of mine managed to hurt my LS on the weekend, found damage today when I gave it a wash.

Long story short, this guy was in the back seat a wee bit drunk, and was busy puking out the door while at a Tim Hortens drive thru. Better out of the car then inside I guess.

He must have managed to bop my door against one of their yellow posts that protect the speaker equipment.

Luckily there is only paint transfer, and it's only on the handle - so it should buff off. Pic to follow tomorrow.

Poor car - it's going to need a paint job by the end of this summer :(.
 
dumb friends ive had friends burn my car with cigs (back when i smoked) is there any way to cover up thise burns, car came with a couple on drivers pillar
 
I've got caked on crap on the decklid, and a quite a few chips and scratches. It really pisses me off to see them, and I'm thinking if I get it repainted, I may spring for the LSE kit as well.
 
yea I had a friend riddin shotgun in my infiniti and flicked a cig out his window right back in the back one onto the back seat (bastard) then my daughter managed to "oops" pen on the back seat of my ls. Thank god the ink came out f**k my other car.
 
by the way take your friend and close the door he scuffed on his hand. I can bet he will have a new found respect for your car...

I hhad a best friend total my 1988 GT Mustang Convert... Says he was run off the road. Others say he was driving like a mad man!
 
I've found it best to not let anyone ride in my LS but me. Yeah sure, this isn't always an option but I've come to the realization that no one (not even my "wonderful" girlfriend) has the same respect for my car that I do. As for friends, at least you can punch them in the face and then give 'em a beer and sit down and watch the game together with no hard feelings. Try doing this to your wife, girlfriend, etc. It doesn't work quite as well.
 
no one will love it like you do well except other LS owners. I dont even think the techs that work on them truly love them like we do.

You "silly goose" it's different when it's her car. I mean after all you're married, son't tell me this is the first time that she has "been right". While we're on the subject of women and our cars let me ask you this. Do you think it's crazy for me to ask her to wash her hands after eating Doritos out of the bag before we get in my car? I mean am I the only one that knows what that god awful orange will do to a car's interior? I love the things too, but damn, how hard is it to wash your hands. Sorry, it's late, and I'm ranting.
:slam
 
we are all guilty tho. I know i cant be the only guy that beat the brains out of his bosses car at one point or another. when it isnt yours you tend to not care, but when it is it feels like the whole world wants to hurt your car. the birds wait for a clean windshield and crap on you, the bi**h in front of you waits for you to wax your car then spray her windshield nozzles. flats in the snow, soda on your floor, dirt on your freshly shined tires, accidently rolling down windows after cleaning streaks ah man the list goes on and on.

:I
well you pretty much just named every pet peeve I have (minus the whole flat in the snow thing, I mean after all I live in S. GA) honestly, how bad do you want to kick yourself when you've spent your whole Sat. detailing your car and Sund morning go to put something in the mailbox only to realize that the water is still inside your doors and now your windows are streaked...as for soda, I'm to the point that I think I would rather go thirsty than risk it
 
speaking of this I had a revelation today....
Big Mac eaten at home=1% patty, 1% special sauce, 98% dry bread
Big Mac eaten in LS= 1% patty, 1% dry bread, 98% special sauce
 
you know whats worse for your car than drunk drivers...kids....period

Well I have to say I'm not to familiar with the whole kids thing. I can barely take care of myself. I mean if it comes down to wax or food...well you know
 
my girlfriend decided i should taxi her little brother to the Y. I thought i can't be that bad hes 9 and should me calm enough not to F!@#$ something up. WRONG. Greasy hands on leather, rolled down windows after a wash, sneezed on back of shotgun seat, kicked speaker grill denting it(thats what really pissed me off) opened the car wide F!@#$@ up a TL(i didn't notice but my gf saw it and said nothing, then i saw the scuff on the enge of my door and she then told me) and then it really ticks me off when people slam my door and i know its not exactly that bad for the car its just a peeve.

Girlfriend annoys me too, she likes to recline seats and rest her feet on my dash.
 
Wow, I'm glad I don't have kids yet - and if I do, they're not going near my LS!

This guy isn't a close friend, and even though I'm bigger than him - I won't go around knocking sense into him - even though he could use it ;).

No pic to come, I've just got a phone call - my new employer is desperate to get me to do a delivery to NC for Thursday morning, and it's way to dark to be taking shots now.

Every time I wash the LS I get more depressed by the paint too, it's looking pretty nasty for 5 year old paint. The aluminum hood+trunk both have paint chips out of them, the trunk is really bad - a 2" diameter chunk of paint flaked off around the key hole when I pressure washed it earlier this winter.

A buddy wants to fix those spots (and touch up the rest of the car), then spray it with a new (and thick) layer of clear coat, with a touch of 'mica'. Could be interesting.
 
ah man!!! when my pass. door gets slammed i always roll down the window and ask "r u sure you got it closed".... oh yea and this bastart f**kin a**hole mutherfu**kin bird landed on my hood the other day and started moonwalking on my hood. he had a silver glove on and everything!!!! no scratches tho. I hit him wit a french fry. bastard!!!

NO DOUBT! I love my kids and adore my car. All you have to is wash the thing and they are attracted like bugs to a zapper at night. Greasy finger marks on the windows and along the side of the car. My wife like the feet on the dash thing two. They take liberties with my car that I would not even begin to think about asking for in their car well her the car kids car will be years off.

any one know how to keep cats off a car. I raise the hood but now they jump up on the trunk. The birds like to sit on the raised hood now and guess what kind of presents they leave behind!

yeah, a ruger 77/22 with a 4x16 burris. no offense to you PETA folks meant
 
yeah I have a few range rifles and thought about emplying them in my anti-cat on the car strategy. It is kind of woodsy out here and I hear shots all the time so I don't think that would be a problem. I am curious if they do taste like chicken heck who knows maybe that otion is still on the table but I'd prefer psychological warfare. I'd rather terrify them and whip them into submission that way they stay off of everyones car and pet owners can still have their cute little fluffy cat.

I should find a taxidermist and see if he can get me a stuffed cat and just put it on top of the car maybe they have a professional courtesy where they wont try to get on top of an occupied car.
