My Baby Is Hurt!!!!! Nooooo
I was driving my car in front of my friends house in the street, and i pulled a sharp turn, the car toppled! It has light scratching on the window and roof. What should i do! I'm so tempted to repackage and return it for a new one, but it frankly isn't worth it for something so small. I'm just so nitpicky about the body being perfect...anyone wanna send me a body!? :P

Sorry to hear that.
I know how you feel about being nit-picky, but I've already made my mind up that I'm gonna play with my car, and it's only a matter of time before it's gets some wear and tear.
You could go on worrying about that kind of stuff, and not have fun with your car, and let it sit on your shelf and collect dust, or you can just shrug it off and race that puppy. If it bothers you that much, then by all means take it back, but are you going to do that everytime it gets a scratch?
You wanna play, you're gonna pay.....If you want to go fast.

Well you should just run it and have fun for a while then when it starts looking really bad get some body putty, fill in and smooth out the scratches and paint it then it will be like new again.

Unless you want your car to be a show queen, don't worry about it, the point of these things is to have fun. We run them up and down the hall in my dorm and they get run into everything, once mine gets to a certain point I'll prlly put a fake donut on the door, some road rash, make it look authentic, wish they made some nascar bodies for them....

I have a real car to worry about getting scratchs on. No really I rolled mine twice last night the first night I had it. It was in my parking lot and it hit a small bump/crack and rolled while turning. Oh well... I am trying to not mess it up but am not going to baby it like a real car.
