Kris drives a Subaru Forester, and within two months her car has been scraped or bumped four different times \u2026<\/p>\n

\u2026 and the scrapers and bumpers didn\u2019t say squat to us. They just walked (or drove) away. One is a scrape that got below the paint line on the hood; two times we were bumped but good by someone opening doors and one gave us a little dent and the other scraped into the paint. \u00a0Okay, these little bumps and bruises happen, no big deal.<\/p>\n

But last Friday someone hit us enough to do some serious paint damage to the lower panel behind the passenger rear wheel well.<\/p>\n

Not a word.<\/p>\n

Since we don\u2019t want any more rust than we have to have, we decided to take the car into a \u201cdetail shop\u201d to get these bumps and scrapes repaired and removed. \u00a0This is a new experience for us (the detail shop), but it was surprisingly inexpensive so we\u2019ll give it a try.<\/p>\n

The worker at the detail shop told me that our experience has become a trend. \u00a0Is this a trend?<\/strong> I don\u2019t think it is really a new trend, but that is his opinion anyway.<\/p>\n
