Sorry to hear about that, OP.

I'll wish badly on them for you ...

I was so pissed, I go to the body shop this morning and the car will be fixed by tomorrow. $350.00 bucks for nothing I did wrong this sucks especially because I am always super carefull not even to tap another car while driving, parking, etc... Who ever did this will get it back to them, I'm not going to wish bad on them (though I want to) but thanks for screwing up my week off.
On the plus side while they're fixing the mess the guy said he'll paint my side refelctors for me at no charge. The guy does great work and has been doing my familys cars for a while now, I trust the job will come out fine. Thanks for hearing me out guys. Wish you all happy holidays and a happy new year.
Very sorry about that. I can imagine how pissed you are at the moment.

NFW that is acceptable, which is why I never valet a car that I care about.

Ouch.

It must be an east coast thing, then. In DC, all the cars have messed up bumpers from people parking and bumping them all the time. I try never to park on the street there. I will gladly pay $15 to get in a garage not to come out to my bumper being all scratched up.

I went to see Avatar too. I went into the city and parked at a garage. When I came to pick up the car there was a scratch on the passenger side door. So pissed. It was at an icon parking garage on 350 w 42nd street by the way.

thats what i would think,
you people over there are sooo scrunched together, and soo many humans and cars its not hard to see why the hostility is generally higher.. and respect for property is minimal..
