This past week has been pretty horrible for me.
It all started with me trying to park pretty far out from anyone else in my school's garage. 5th floor, back corner. I got a little too close to the curb and my tire clipped it. Awesome. So I get out to check the damage and sure enough there were the scrapes along the outside of the rim. I suck it up, finish parking, and head back to my room pissed off.
Next day I go back to look at it again because it was bothering me so much. Except this time there's daylight out and I can see the real damage. Not only did the curb damage the rim, I guess rubbing against it spiked the psi in my tire and caused a bubble to bulge out the side. Awesome. So I post on here to assess the problem with the pro's. Everyone basically agreed that I needed to put the spare on the rear wheel and move the good rear wheel forward. That was my project for the next day.
Being a noob at the task, I put the jack along the long smooth part of the body, right underneath the vtec sticker. Start cranking away and I notice the jack is going up and my car isn't. What's goin' on here? Oh, the jack is bending out the body of the car and continuing to move up into it. Awesome. So I've got the body of the car F**K*D up now. And it all started because I wanted to park a
LIL bit too far away from the big grouping of cars to keep mine safe. That plan turned out well I'd say.
Basically, I'm asking for you guys to post up pictures of small little things you've done to your cars. I know I can't be the only one to mess up this bad, but it sure as hell feels like it.
Didn't help that I had two exams to deal with at the same time as well. By FAR the most stress I've ever been in in one week's time. At least it's all over with. Mostly. I'll take a few pictures of my car tomorrow.
