Default Sooooooooooooooo... My mom backed up into my car!

Yea, two days after putting on the new bumper and fixing the old fender bender, my mom backed up into my car in the driveway.
She felt horrible but I tried to stay calm so she wouldn't go crazy.

I already got it fixed up, and I feel like a Mustang bumper professional. There is still some slight scratching/chipping but I'll deal with it. The passanger side of the bumper popped out and had to be re-mounted.

Pics are coming in about 3 min.

I already moved the car to where it was before she backed into it. Notice the tread marks from being pushed

Now do you know why I want to sell it?
My old stang, 02 GT Sonic Blue, got totaled because some kid ran a stop sign and T-boned me going 45mph. I had that one for about 4 months tops.

This one I've had a $600 bill because of a $20 part came off. Rear ABS sensor and to replace you have to take out the rear axle shaft. In the process of this, the rear differential got fu**ed up so now I have a 5.0 differential in my car.

Along with this, well, I'm tired of all the BS that's happening.

And.. HOW the hell did she move your car THAT far??? Did she just hit it and decide "hey, i guess since I already hit it, ill just give it some more gas.." lol
Crazy thing is I have no paint cracking or nothing. The bumper was ok except for popping off partially and the paint transfer from her car.

I think the fact that it's only 3 days dry helped out. The paint might have some give in it. The body shop said give 30 days for completely cured and to be able to wax it.
