SS Battle Scars / Post them here
 
This thread is devoted to post battle scars (dents, chips, scratches, etc.) to your HHR SS. Yes, I will start:

It's hard to make out but there is a dent in my fender close to the hood. Polished it this morning and didn't notice anything. Have only been to Taco Bell and the gas station and then noticed it :cussing:

Goes well with my stone chip received while at the Cedar Point Meet:

Ugh. Unfortunately it is a fact of life. Yesterday on th way home going 70 MPH on an interstate, two large birds swooped low over the roadway. I clipped the second bird up high in the passenger side where the windshield meets the frame. Fortunately I didn't suffer any damage. I'm not sure whether the bird lived or not.

With less than 1 week, my wife goes shopping and right rear gets whacked:

Then, a couple days later, another grocery cart slams the right front fender:

Both were much worse at first, but I used pops-a-dent, and it really works. If I was good at it, I might have made them ALL gone. I also used some VRed nail polish where the paint was damaged.

Oh well, 20 years ago I would have been in tears and killed my wife, but now I know it was the evil engineers designing grocery cart magnets in our fenders. :eek:

Got this one when a chunk of rubber from a Semi hit me on the 170 going to North Hollywood. I never drive that freeway because it's always dirty and crazy and I was only on it to run a errand for my mom.

I don`t have the time to take pictures of all the dents in mine after the hail storm:mad: Got to wait till next Tuesday before the insurance guy looks at it to find out if I get a new one or not.

Hey Bluonyx nice macro shot.

A little nail polish and a dremmel buffer and that baby is gone!

I'll trade for my grocery cart dents. :lol:

Looks like the air bag worked!

It did I have the burns to prove it. The bag in this case hurt me more than if it had not gone off. I was almost stopped.
