That must have been the most narrow ATM drive through in the word.
Seriously.

I pull as close to my mirror as possible. I figure if I hit the mirror some buffing will fix it. Rims on the other hand take more work. I actually almost hit my mirror yesterday. I was DAMN close to the first poll. I didnt even think about the 3 others coming up. EKKK!

Luckily, I didnt hit either of them.

Sorry about the wheels. :-/

I feel ya, I curbed both of my right tires on potholes. And there's a scratch on the left side (on the plastic bumper, fortunately, and not on the metal where it'll rust) from a low object I couldn't see on the mirror because it was too low. Looks like we're going to be looking for touch-up paint soon. I tried the dealers, but they didn't have any in stock when I was there. Yeah, it sucks, but you'll learn to get over it sooner or later. It's not like you lost a body part.

To borrow a quote from Blades of Glory - "whoever invented curbs was a real a**hole".
