Thank you everyone for your replies and sympathy. It IS aggrevating. And it's esp. aggrevating b/c of the sentiments attached to it. It's a 2001 Nissan Sentra...pretty snazzy for a college kid. Mom and Dad surprised me with it this summer when my old car (a '96 corsica) bit the big un. You don't know how thrilled I was to drive it off the lot--esp. since it only had 13 miles on it!

I guess the first scratch/dent/paintball is always the hardest to take. lol
