I'm sorry that you had to go through that... And it isn't about replacing the mirror that I'm worried about, as it is that I had to take the whole side panel of my car off because there is a speaker in the way of taking my mirror out and I have to take that off first :-/ I'm going to try to fix it tomorrow, wish me luck! <br /><br />Vanessa, I paid almost $60 for a new mirror, I'm just going to try to install it myself... we'll see how it goes! <br /><br />Jihee, I've missed you too! Come back soon my dear...<br /><br />Jessica, Thanks! The first photo was taken with Jon's Canon (I love that you can see the reflection of the fireworks in the water) and the second one was just with my iphone.<br /><br />Caroline, The rock was bigger than my fist. If there wasn;t numerous rocks flying around and my adrenaline wasn't running so high, I would have grabbed the rock because it was right next to my car with all the pieces of my mirror when all was said and done.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16511755168483581420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284268644732761794.post-63077905686552211882011-07-08T08:41:24.285-07:002011-07-08T08:41:24.285-07:00Wow - they really did whack your car hard!

I can't even imagine the size of the rock they must've thrown [I guess in my head I'd assumed small stones.]<br /><br />It is sick that the person who damaged your car wasn't held accountable. You're right though - it probably is best to fix it yourself and avoid the hassle and fees of small claims court. It's too bad. At least the fireworks were really pretty though. <br /><br />Hope all is easily resolved!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05057334186168897356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284268644732761794.post-71878958688443658922011-07-07T12:48:20.119-07:002011-07-07T12:48:20.119-07:00i love your pictures of the fireworks!

Be careful walking around your neighborhood :-/<br /><br />Beca, thanks! I'll keep it in mind :) <br /><br />Joanna, thanks girl, I hope I figure it out soon too, driving to and frpm work yesterday was a nightmare. So scary! I didn't realize just how much I relied on that mirror. <br /><br />Anastasia, luckily my grandfather got me a book a while back that tells you how to install/take apart everything on my VW. I've been reading all about it and though it seems difficult, I'm going to try to replace it myself... That sucks about your college, I can imagine that happening though. Why can't people control themselves when they drink?!

And I just love how the person that did it has no repercussions.. gotta love how the law works sometimes, huh?<br /><br />In my old apartment on a college campus we had to parallel park out on the street and things were *always* happening to the cars by drunk college kids. My side mirror got broken off one night but I just never put one back on. Haha. Maybe there's a YouTube video showing how to reattach one?Anastasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00700978779367397674noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284268644732761794.post-86513009238266258622011-07-05T22:52:24.248-07:002011-07-05T22:52:24.248-07:00Doug did, on his ex's vw golf. he bought the m...Doug did, on his ex's vw golf. he bought the mirror aftermarket and installed it himself. he said it's not super easy to do, but it's possible and if you need help, just let us know. sorry that happened, it got crazy in OB too, but there were cops everywhere.becahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11678627563483445451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284268644732761794.post-13333602748307345512011-07-05T20:44:47.044-07:002011-07-05T20:44:47.044-07:00i looove your tats! so badass xi looove your tats! so badass xgalatea.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17378942973884808293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5284268644732761794.post-9957291103132429572011-07-05T15:01:32.547-07:002011-07-05T15:01:32.547-07:00Ugh.
