Need help!!

Situation - my barely 1 year old Fit was hit on Saturday, Mar 8, 2008. It's currently sitting at the Honda dealership in Calgary but I have to move it onto the street. I'm currently in Edmonton (as I live here) so need help from my fellow Fit-Freakers....

Please help! If you can help me, please ping me....

I have very colourful words for the man with the very bad wig who hit me...

I will not post the story but I think you can pretty much figure out what happened based on the pictures...

My poor baby.... no smiley with crying so you'll just have to imagine.

Not nice, and to think the guy is trying to pin it on you.... and try and run away....

Looks like you will be driving something else to the meet on the 16th

I'll let you know when i can get it to your mom's house.

Thanks for the laughter. You are so right! It is so hard to have a nice car when there's so many idiots on the road. I think they should have to pass an idiot test and the appreciation for nice cars test before they're allowed on the road.

Then again we do have Stelmach leading the ship I'll be the first one to start protesting if he decides to bring back front license plates...

I did the online public survey for that, I am totally not a fan of front licence places!! I also put in the comments section some words about how they better be paying for conversions if they re-introduce them. I am not paying hundreds of dollars for a dealer plate holder!!

I still think the PC's are better than "crazy pants" Kevin Taft leading the province, even though my vote traditionally is a liberal one.

There was no good choice this election year was there? I knew the PC were going to win, but I was hoping for a better Liberal turnout with a PC majority so we could oust Stelmach for crappy numbers...

Yeah there better be no front plate, I don't want holes in my front bumper...stupid government...I do agree we need a change though...blue background with a black Pumpjack right in the middle and the phrase "Canada's Breadwinner" along the bottom hehehehe...

Wow just saw this. That sucks big time

At least it's very fixable, what are you driving in the meantime?

Also is it just me or is it always some stupid domestic shitbox causing the accidents

I like them on the side of the road more, that's where they belong.

See what happens when you let one be driven around?

Still coming to the meet Vivian?
