lost a tail lense at the car wash! WTF!

went to the pressure wash real quick yesterday in a hurry to get somewhere...didn't want to show up in a dirty ride....anyway i thought heard a strange clunk when i poppedover the bump stop as i was leaving the automatic wash...didn't think anything of it. Got about 20 miles away and the second I stepped out of the car i noticed my driver's side tail lens was missing!!!

I called the carwash and sure enoughsome one ran it over and smashed it to smitherine's!!!

Oh well, i wanted a new set as they were really old and had lot's of hairline cracks and stuff...but it sux to have to spend $135 out of nowhere just for the lenses! Damn!

One time I went through the car wash and the thing ripped off my headlight covers!

I started driving away and I heard this awful scraping sound I was like wtf??? So I stopped the car and looked under neath and I had been dragging one of my headlight covers.. thing was scratched to sh*t! lol. They're only $40 but I'll never go through a car wash again.

Those things are powerful, and they scratch up your paint too.
