a little vandalism by crazy pedestrian!

soooooo heres the quick story,

im driving downtown, trying to turn right and theres a 2 pedestrians crossing. One of em runs across and another guy takes his sweet *** time walking across, he looks at me and i jus keep waiting, then he walks across and he smirks at me and so as im turning right, i shake my head @ him... i dont say n e thing, i jus shake my head. So then about 100meters ahead im waiting at a light...and i finish txting someone and i look in my side mirror and buddy is ****in running full speed towards me in the middle of the road!!!!! This light im @ is still red but its one of those dumb red lights for ppl coming out of the parkade. Im like "oooh ****" so i put it in first and hit it, but of course i hit a big of turbo lag, so he tries reaching in my car but by that time my turbo kicks in and my car flies off...he got one hit on my car and he hit my rear driver side pillar, he must of hit in w/ a ring of something, he made a crack in my paint... i have a picture but its not very good so tomorrow im gonna take a better pic in the daylight.

Couple things in anticipation of comments

- i know i shoulda revved it up and dropped it but it happened so quick all i thought of was first and go!
- i couldnt have faught him b/c im small and woulda got my *** handed to me
- i did look for something to chase after him w/ but i cleaned out my car and there was nothing in it

Soooo my question to some ppl who r good w/ body work is, how much do u think to fix? when u see it, its not much but its the principle! My car shouldnt be flawed or vandilised! Everytime i look at it, bugs me! I was gonna goto this detailing shop that fixes expensive cars w/ minor stuff like this.

and for the record - - LESSON LEARNED...KEEP MY THOUGHTS TO MYSELF!!

Yo get pepper spray or some **** bro wtf? How tall are you and what's your weight??? As soon as I would've seen that I would've got out my car and put it on him. I treat my car as if it were my daughter... Imagine someone hitting one of your kids??? naaaa f that. Keep a bat, golf club or something in that trunk... Best of luck bro.

I agree 100000 % about the daughter thing.... i love my evo sooo much!! That is why i want it fixed, dont care the cost! Just straight up bad energy w/ that mark!

Honestly i am not exaggerating this story @ all! I am 5 feet 90 pounds. Hence why i didnt wanna fight I am gonna buy a big wrench for emergency purposes. Its a tool not a weapon My big brother showed me a few things incase this ever happens but i told him there better be no next time.

I didnt call the cops cause honestly, i jus wanted to get the **** outta there!!

Damn you're small lol I'm 5'9, 160... but yeah I rather avoid violence also but if you have to deal with it... put an end to it before it gets any worse. Definitely get some type of "tool" to defend yourself bro. Or maybe you can get a .45 and just keep it in a box under your seat... lol

Only in Edmonton, lol. It doesn't look like it was damaged that much, I suspect you could get it buffed out or covered for pretty cheap. If I was your size, I would carry pepper spray. A wrench is a risk because if you swing and miss or swing and don't hit hard enough, you could just end up pissing them off and getting seriously hurt.

I'm so sorry for you.

No need to buy a wrench. You have one in your trunk. Place it inside the car within your arms reach. A screw driver will do, too
