Another hit and run

So dont know when or how it happened...

I go to rinse the dust off my car and notice a gouge/indentation on the driver side right behind the 280ZX symbol... It about the height of a trailor hitch... Damn. So now I have to find some paint close enough to match just to keep or slow the rust. I had my car painted about a year go and it already looks bad. I notice so much garbage in it and so much more rust is appearing more than if I would have left the sun beaten factory paint on it... So here is my rant, just till I get out of school and can afford to have it repainted by a real pro and not some shaddy shope outside a military base.

Hate to hear about that, it stinks.
I have no dings on my car. Of course, as my wife says, I park in another zip code just to go to walmart. I dont mind getting wet, freezing, or burning up taking the long walk to my car, cause what i hate are door dingers, who drive a piece and dont care that you love and take care of your car.
Now that i have said that, mine will probably get dinged up overnight.

i still have the tall chrome and black trim on my car, if i see people hit my car i do it right back when i get in it, those chrome peices are pretty nasty for scratches and door dings.
