My first damage.

2008 Mazdaspeed 3
I backed my 2008 Speed3 (1300 miles on it, still smells new) out of the garage so the garage door guy wouldn't accidently bang into it...and I caught the rear bumper of his truck with my driver's side rear wheel well. Two inch long gouge to the bare metal, and my own stupid fault. Sucks. At least it's not dented. The first cut is the deepest...guess I'll start letting my wife drive it once in a while now.

That SUCKS! Haven't hurt mine yet, but I almost hit my garbage curbie in the driveway the first day I brought mine home. It really freaked me out.

I would take it to a body shop and have that gash fixed ASAP. That would bug the crap out of me, and not only that, you don't want it to rust.
 
Pics???

Sorry to hear bro but the first time I hurt my car was curbing my front right wheel...that s*** you can't get rid of unless you get it professionally done up.
 
that sucks! don't feel too bad about it; s*** happens. Like the others said, get that fixed!! You will feel better when it's done and you will stop any further damage from happening.

Rod 'the Bod' Stewart lives! (dance)
Seriously, though, i hears you. nuttin' worse than the 1st dent or ding. look at it this way: the damage is done, now you can get over your fear of the 'when will it happen?' and move forward. yeah, let the wife do her worst.
 
i had mine for a week and a half and backed up into a damn land rover. huge dent and dented part of the hatch. still not fixed but i pushed it out. looks bad though

On the other hand, that's all most people will see...the back of your badass MS3. Thanks for the support, everyone...found out it's a 300 buck fix, so I can live with it.
