I was on BDMAXIMA thread about 3 days ago and commented on his page if i got hit like he did i would have cried well that day has come lol! This morning as i was driving home from work this guy in a 99 ford ranger side swiped me. Its been a bad day!

 

another one goes down...this month is really going bad for our max's

 

Yea i know and it really sucks looking out the window and see her all beaten up!!

 

I feel your pain bro........

 

Dam man sorry about your Max.

 

sorry to hear... its painful... I got a deep scratch when some knucklehead pushed his cart on my max at a walmart parking lot... and that within 10 days of buying the car

it seems the 6th gen max is so sexy that no one can keep their hands off it

 

WOW!!!

I would have been LIVID!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you get it fixed?

When I go to places like Walmart I try to park ALL the way on the otherside of the parking lot where no one parks to avoid crap like that. It's a longer walk, but I rather spend the extra two minutes walking than coming out and seeing a big @ss ding on my car.

 

srry to hear i feel ur pain i really do hope u get it fixed soon.

i'll be goin thru my insurance next week to get it fixed

 

Look on the bright side, the headlight looks damage free.

Find a fender on ebaY and have it shot. Shouldn't cost much.

 

I went to a Nissan dealer's bodyshop as well as to a couple of other body shops. All of them said that the scratch has cut through the paint in the front bumper, so it can't be fixed unless I paint the whole bumper which would cost around $400. They also said not to worry because the bumper is plastic, so the scratch won't lead to rust. But still it feels bad.

Now I park just as you do. Hope that saves it.

 

Whats your deductable? Look at it this way, brand new fender and newly painted front end, which gets the most chips anyway.

 

$1000

 

unfortunately my deductible is $1000.00! but the other guy admitted that he was at fault so now im waiting on state farm to call me back! oh yea do you guys think this is more than a 1k of damage?

 

Man that sucks bro.....

Good luck with the repairs!!

 

Count me in. Was side swiped today by a Scion Xb. Needless to say more.

 

that sucks dude try takin it to a car wash and ask one of the guys to detail that area and see how much get remove for the time bein till u can get it re painted

 

wow -- another one! sorry to hear dude!

 

I have an appointment tomorrow to get pictures/estimate, until then I cannot clean the car. They will be sending me a check, so I will try my McGuire scratch remover first. If the dents are small, I may try one of the 'dent doctor' around here. I am concerned that a freshly painted door/fender will shine more and be noticable. May just be a misconception on my part.

 

Sorry to hear that guys! That will teach me to park further as well in a parking lot.

 

This happened to me about 2 months ago.. It ran over 700, you can try the scratch remover, and a dent doctor seems logical, it doesn't look like a major dent.

 

I have a question. My front bumper has a wide scratch on it. I know that it has not gone through the paint, it just makes it like a whitish color from the rubbing. My question is what type of paint would be best to cover up the scratch for my black 06 maxima. Any suggestions or brands would be great help.
