Lol my sister stuffed my old A3 1.6 when it was less than 6 months old. Needed a whole new front end! I wasn't even told until after I sold it 5 years later! (I was away at the time.)

My brother stuffed his new S4 into the car in front of him while perving at some girls on the pavement, muppet!

How true! I reversed into a concrete column after a full 3 weeks of ownership! Tosser!

Op, we're hopefully making your kerbed alloy seem like less of a deal...?

The 1st few weeks of owning my GTI were pretty painful in terms of the alloys. It was the 1st car I've owned with 18's and the sound from the 1st kerbing was just excruciating...but got easier the more it happened

I'm a lot more careful now, although they are all kerbed so not as painful if it did happen again. Planning on getting some new wheels in the spring

It's reckon its worse when you do it yourself, no one else to blame! Had my Pescara's refurb'd in a lovely gun metal Grey (couldn't be happier) and 2 days later I ran down the side of a kerb while parking, completely FUBAR'd the entire rim. Can't be arsed to get it done again!

I feel for you fella, give your mam a hug, you've only got the one! 

Everyone of my alloys has kerb marks, previous owner had them all done 2 weeks before I bought the car and his missus managed to kerb them all within 10 days  , oh and she also clipped a gatepost scratching the rear wheelarch and breaking the bumper clip (another thing on my to do list after winter!), at least the owner himeself admitted to scraping the front splitter twice  (another job)

Yep thats the thing, if they were already kerbed I wouldn't have cared but they were all spotless. Need a local repairer to sort it out.
