I've hit cones at AutoX and scuffed my bumper/lip pretty bad. Dunno if that counts.

got a nail and a screw in my driver side rear tire. it was almost new too. got it replaced via tire rack's road hazard warranty. had to pay out of pocket to shave the tire and for mount & balance though. #citylife

there's not half as much debris on our roads as in socal. i'd regularly see shopping carts, furniture, whole tires, mattresses, etc on the freeways.

Damn that sucks. If it's going to be that much of an eye sore you might as well go through the insurance to fix it.
