i dispise my fitter and i eventually want to get back my old car the ford ranger...but a better or same year. 2008.

when i was fucked up i accidentally hit the side of a i believe green car (from the looks of the paint on my bumper/light) and now the front end and bottom plastic shield thing is broken...not bad but, noticable.

would it cost more to fix it now and then sell or trade in or just give in and get rid of it?

its a nice and easy car to drive and great gas but i just dont like the look of it and if you get in a head on,,,,your

Maybe you're not a Fit person then

What is this "bottom plastic shield thing"? Are you talking about the bumper?

also what do you mean by " i was fucked up" were you drunk?

no i am i was joking. i enjoy the car. although the crash test video scares me.

yes the pumper and light were pushed inwards, as i was backing out of a parking spot i must of turned the wheel left and went to fast and hit the side of another parked car at an angle(while not feeling to great) and then yeah its out of place....ill post pics later. but no i am talking about the plastic black scratch protector under the bumper...its broken and hanging from my car.

So what you're saying is, you were drunk/high, didn't even know you hit another car, and now your splash guard is hanging off. Is this about right?

I'd pull one off a junked Fit. I don't think it has much function anyways.

Yeah the mpg and actually room in the car is great. but safety wise if you get hit youre fucked. But yes i did and dont remember denting that car(although my car took all the damage) and i was wondering if i can just tear off the bottom scratch protector thats black, its just dangling and annoying...or how much to repair the whoe front bumper/pushed in headlight?

should i post a pic?

Please. Include one of yourself so the owner of the car you hit knows who did it.

Are you still drunk? If you can't operate a cam, you shouldn't try a car.
