I'd let her hit me and make her pay for a new car.

Avoiding an accident is *always* the preferred way to go.

I have Rota's because I daily drive my Evo....that and my wife drives my car occasionally. The first time I curb-rashed my literally brand new wheels. I was furious, for about an hour than got over it.

I want my car to look as clean and pristine as possible. I also recognize the irony of owning a rally-inspired car that's purpose built to drive over shit that ruins the finish of a car.

Anyone else occasionally laugh at themself for raging at every door ding and wheel chip?

I have that problem... Hell it's been a over a year and I still won't park at Walmart. Also, I fear what chips ill find after every car wash. I'm beginning to think I have an issue. But whatever... It's my first new car and its quite a nice one at that.

Insurance will say its your fault and increase your premium unless you have some type of accident forgiveness. Just say you hit an animal and that changes it to Not At Fault.
