had a little accident in my civ :(
I was pulling out of a parking lot of a place that I was getting a job application for, saw about 100 cars coming so it'd be a while until I get a chance to get out. So, being the impatient bastard that I am I back up without looking and hit a buick that didn't have its lights on. It didnt hurt the tank of a buick at all but tore the edge of my front bumper and dented the fender up pretty bad. Her bumper also hit my wheel and knocked it out of place or something, like my left wheel is straight and the right one is angled out to the side, I could barely drive it home... oh well.. my insurance will pick up the tab and hopefully I'll be driving the civic within a few weeks.. The sad thing is I was about to get my windows tinted and get an oem spoiler, but I'm gonna have to pick up the $250 deductable for the insurance now.. life sucks sometimes!

Going about 5mph or less I assume since I was going backwards. Her bigass bumper hit the tire part of my wheel and bent it inwards. So it's facing out a little to the right when I have the wheel straight.

Things do happen at the worst times. Lesson learned! Maybe you should reconsider working at that local Burger King.
