Thumbs down Third time's the charm, right?

I'm starting to wonder who put a curse on my rear bumper. I got rear-ended for the third time in a year! Damage? In the exact same spot! On a positive note, I was in the car this time so they couldn't just drive away and leave me to deal with it. So I'll be getting two accidents worth of damage fixed.

Take the insurance money and fix it yourself.

Got rear-ended coming off the 103 onto St Margarets Bay road.

http://www.google.ca/maps?ie=UTF8&ll...,0.006968&z=18

Check the picture attached; the bump was hard enough that the remote for my stereo flew out from under the deck (in the little cubby thing), probably bounced off me and landed up by the windshield on the dash. I only realized it was there later on. I had looked all over the floor for it before

I'll be making sure that the one's who fix it will guarantee their work. I'd be highly p***ed off if it did start to chip or something and they wouldn't fix it.

Sucks about your luck. On the up side, this one wasn't a parking lot "bump and go"

Unrelated note: Dig your console mod Nick! Did you post pics of that anywhere else on the forums?

You're right. And I always try to see the positive side of things.

And yeah, the console turned out awesome. I posted it here a while back http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/sho...&postcount=103

Got this all fixed up over the weekend. Looks brand new! And now I'm very paranoid of where I park.
