Are you still going to let her drive it after you get it painted?

forget the little scrape on black plastic unpainted splitter its going to happen, look at the BUG splatter and those rock chips on the unprotected paint she must have drove it thousands of miles and peeled off your clear bra to do that kind of damage man...........

Rule #1 never let anyone drive your car.

Fred is exactly right. Shit happens! Even most owners will eventually hit a curb or scuff a wheel. The seats are so low it's hard to tell where you are sometimes.

Do not want to put a jinx on you but before long you may end up doing worse yourself. I try to stay well away from curb stops or back in. But what I really need is a camera on the front and front park assist!
Wish the curb designers would go back to the drawing boards and design one that will hit the Camaro tires and not the car.

I'd tell it's okay things happen then I'd tell her she is not ever driving it again especially since she blatantly disregarded your instructions . You don't pull right up over curbs you don't park up from right by the door of a heavily traveled business you don't park close by other vehicles . She broke every rule maybe if she made the payment and detailed it shed understand better

Thanks for all the replies guys. It's okay. My sister is a senior in high school. She was just excited to drive my car. It's no worries, I'll just get it painted now
