Driving through our city on Friday night, a young man decided to throw a stone at my MINI... and sure enough, I got my first ding on the passenger side door just above the door handle... another two inches and it may have broken the window.. anyhow, I am looking for touch up paint...any help you can give me would be appreciated... INDY Blue.... :???:

Sorry to here about this. It sounds like you took it better than I would have.

I agree, a pulsating vane in my head may have kicked the kid's *** itself.

I would have run down the kid with my Mini.... Why did he throw a rock at it? Any idea?

P.S. (For the site admins) There should be an evil-laughing face...

If I could have, I would have... but my time was in crunch mode.... (I'm the shot clock operator for our professional lacrosse team and it was 15 minutes before game time)... anyhow, I WAS SICK over the ding... but it can be fixed... Heck, 4,000 miles and my first ding.... I'll get over it, it about... 10 years.
