effin irrespectful m'fers..

tjnptel1 · 12-09-2008, 09:24 PM

So I came home from classes to this:

Somebody backed into my car, it was parked in reverse in the parking spot. I haven't moved my car in 3 weeks and it was absolutely spotless, now this.

What else could be damaged? Doesn't the gap between the hood and the bumper look off too?

dtm@heart · 12-09-2008, 09:29 PM

I think that was mighty disrespectful of somebody to do to your car. sorry man that sucks

Mk23 · 12-09-2008, 09:30 PM

Man that sucks, looks like your gap is off...

Kev · 12-09-2008, 09:31 PM

It happened to my E90 as well (both front AND back)...... Fuuking pissed, and then it happened to the E92 front bumper as well. People in my complex have no common decency.

FrankiE90 · 12-09-2008, 09:36 PM

i am taking classes at TCC - Virginia Beach campus but I live in Newport News, va.

I saw your car in towncenter recently, i was walking to red star, i wanted to flag you down but you would have thought i was some psycho trying to car jack you so i kept quiet.

Amazing looking car, pics do it no justice.

Have you heard anything about the checkered flag body shop?

mJ335 · 12-09-2008, 10:11 PM

Sorry to hear that bro.

Hmm.. from that angle I think that all of us owners have that much of a gap.
I don't think he/she (probably a 'she', but I'm very biased) backed into your car at a point where your front bumper will lift up hitting the hood to make it mis-aligned.

i thought it was pushed down.. that's what caught my attention when i got home, and then i saw that somebody did actually hit the bumper.

Hahaha, I was probably at Changs. And I probably would've thought you were a carjacker, but thanks for the compliment! I've never used the checkered flag body shop. My parents owned a 5 series earlier in this decade and took it to Bay Custom Auto in Newport News when it got hit. In fact, they took all of their cars there, so naturally, I take mine there, too. They're under new management as of this year, but they seem to do the same great job they always have. Best of luck if you take it to Checkered though. I'll see you around!

theblackmamba · 12-09-2008, 10:29 PM

It just needs to be realigned, a good body shop can fix that plastic bumper asap. Here is how I know its off:

If I were you I'd get a euro plate for the time being and affix the euro plate there where the mark is and then get a relocator plate and put your state plates in the front near the intercooler or something or get the swift motorized shit. Theres no sense in fixing it and have someone else fuck it up; unless your school covers it.

*knocks on wood that nothing has happend yet on campus for me*

RyanZERO · 12-09-2008, 11:10 PM

Sorry to hear that man.
It's irritating me, but I believe it's disrespectful.

veightkiller · 12-09-2008, 11:13 PM

Sorry to see that man. get it fix asap

808E90 · 12-09-2008, 11:18 PM

Sorry to see that man ... Yeah that is my biggest fear too!
Let me know if you need to buy a new plate bracket ... I have one painted AW and one black

Year's_End · 12-10-2008, 12:04 AM

i hate douches that hit and run. btw, it's disrespectful, not irrespectful.

E90 ANdy · 12-10-2008, 12:08 AM

hey! its an easy fix, to re-align your bumper, just loosen the top bolts, they're TORX, then just pull it out and tighten

hope this helps, i know it will haha because the OEM bolts arent torqued on there super tight, it gives u the flexibility of adjustment.

AV9 · 12-10-2008, 12:56 AM

damn dude sux to hear...

Deda · 12-10-2008, 01:54 AM
