Sim & Bek's Place

...well scraped down the side of it anyway.

It was parked outside Bek's house, on Morris Rd.
Normally i ignore the council requirement of parking on the road and I leave it on their nature strip, but not last night.
So i go to leave the following morning as Bek heads off to work in her car and notice glass on the road next to my car. Wondering what it was from, i then notice the glass missing from my driver's Side Mirror. I immeadiately thought vandalism and checked the other windows, and also for my number plates.
I couldn't find any other real damage, but then spotted red scrapes down the rear panel: just under the black side strip, around the wheel arch, and on my rear bumper; there was also a black scrape higher up along the car.
The rear-most side strip was also damaged, so i pulled that off...

We did our own "scene assessment" and deemed the following:
- their wing mirror caused the black mark, and also knocked out my mirror
- they were travelling slowly - my mirror wouldn't handle a car doing 30kph let alone the 60kph limit
- therefore, they were either turning in just past Bek's, or pulling out just before
- they pulled aside to check their car (due to more shrapnel ahead)
But most importantly ----
- they lost an indicator (due to the orange pieces on the ground) and i didn't !!!!
- they lost lots of paint and i didn't !!!!
- i buffed/cut polished all their paint off my car this afternoon !!!!
- we assume they also lost/damaged their mirror

which means the Kingswood wins!!
but it could have been oh-so-much worse...only another few inches over and a much larger crunch would exist. lucky i wasn't getting out of the car or something at the time!

it would have been nice for them to leave a note...
i'll post some pictures tomorrow.
