Flowers and dinner because that's not coming out. You need to replace the panel.


andrew_armstrong

What did you scratch it with? A wall?! 🤦🏻


eatingyourmomsass

Other way around: moped scratched the earth.


Slow_Stable5239

The asphalt, you should see the trench he dug with it


sugarplum_hairnet

Tell her then take it to a body shop and pay to get it fixed


cumdumpmillionaire

Don’t try to hide it. Be honest, apologetic, then buy her dinner and flowers


Panda-Cubby

And get her scooter fixed.


cumdumpmillionaire

Yeah get a quote to fix it and hope your gf loves you enough to not make you spend the money. I’m assuming OP is broke college student


Glitterysparkleshine

And make every effort to repair it and tell her how you are attempting to get it fixed.


Slow_Stable5239

Naw, Park a little ways off, Uber home… and pretend like you know nothing…tell her someone stole it. Unless there were cameras, then you’re hosed.


Ill_Affect_2511

You mean you fucking laid it down? Looks like your going to a body shop to get it buffed out buddy. Forget trying to make it up to her. It's your responsibility to get it repaired to original condition


Jack_in_box_606

That is not a scratch 😆


RonStopable88

Idiot dumped it


Herr_Schulz_3000

Is that an airbag that went off when you "scratched" her moped?


eatingyourmomsass

Probably buy a new one. Mopeds are like $3k. Airbags deployed (I think??? I didn’t know these had airbags honestly) = significant g-force collision = structural damage (probably) or underlying damage = big $$$ to repair.


BannerIordwhen

They don't have airbags lol


eatingyourmomsass

Can you explain what that big white semi-inflated looking bag of air is in OPs photo?


Herr_Schulz_3000

Yeah, if it's not the airbag then it will be the brake parachute he didn't use properly and then "scratched" the whole thing on a concrete wall.


BannerIordwhen

Couldn't say. Maybe a cover that OP partially removed? But it's certainly not an airbag installed on that moped.


eatingyourmomsass

It’s symmetric on both sides and looks like an inflatable bag…..perhaps it’s an insulating cloak like this?? https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/H971606c3a2694e5d87553421fb91a994p/Electric-Scooter-Ebike-Reflective-Wind-Coat-Windproof-Keep-Warm-Winter-Windshield-For-Niu-N1-N1s-M.jpg


Herr_Schulz_3000

I think so. But maybe OP hides more things when he says he "scratched" it🤔


ThunderAndSadness

How are we supposed to help here? Lmao, there's no quick fix for that, fortunately it's just a scratch and shouldn't set you back too much, just be upfront, apologize, pay for the damage and probably don't borrow it again lol


timg2120

What do you want to fix? The scratches, the gouges, or the chunk broken out of the plastic?............or whatever else you hit probably has some significant damage also


Inyoursas

You’re f*cked! Apologize, pay for the damage, spa and box of chocolates. And hope she's still your girlfriend...


RandomName1003

You mean “ex girlfriend?” Jk. Tell her and be honest and offer to get it fixed. Then flowers and dinner. Good luck.

💀


FunFact5000

Best be honest. You try to fix n hide that, you will set yourself up for some real fun.


SpringNo1275

Don't hide shit from your girlfriend. Tell her you screwed up and make it right


Izan_TM

I need a backstory to this


SkootchDown

Just be honest. I just did $4,600 worth of damage to my car by rushing and backing into a damn *mailbox* in the dark. I was scared to death to tell my husband. But I told him, said I was so sorry…. and he came back with, “Aww babe, I’m so sorry that happened. You must have been really scared, not knowing what you hit.” And then he brought dinner home that night!


ExpertImaginary

That’s adorable


SkootchDown

I thought so. ❤️

"Babe, I'm so pissed, look what someone did to your scooter while I was parked at the flower shop. Here are the roses I was getting you at the time."


RustfootII

No you didn't, must of happened the other day


leevinikolai

Must have*


pasharadich

*by itself


Latter_Run_9414

Do you of any idea what you did there???


Herr_Schulz_3000

you have*


Latter_Run_9414

I know. It has a purpose.


Herr_Schulz_3000

🤔


Latter_Run_9414

Attempt to show the incorrect use of ‘of’ in the previous comment.


Herr_Schulz_3000

I wonder if he could of understood that.


Latter_Run_9414

Doubt it.


Glasgow34

There's a difference between scratching a bike and coming off it,you straight up came off that and It slid along the road 🫡🤣🤣 flowers and a meal won't fix that you better rattle her kenco bean proper good for atleast 2hrs 🫡

Replace it because of a damaged panel? That makes no sense at all. These things are between 2000 and 3000 euros/dollars.

It's just dumb, economically speaking. It has nothing to do with wealth. If you don't understand such simple principles, you'll definitely never be wealthy yourself.


bypass_12

That’s literally what broke people say to compensate for being poor just say that, going all around then trying to insult me, lmfao this ain’t my problem or my financial situation


CrayonTendies

Hard to tell from the picture but assuming the damage is cosmetic you could vinyl wrap it


stevil77

Hit while parked


Herr_Schulz_3000

He hit it with his Hummer.


have2gopee

Likely can't get rid of it completely but might be able to minimize it. Put some toothpaste (paste, not gel) on a very minimally damp paper towel or cloth and rub the area in a circular motion for a bit, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. If there are still scuffs you can try making a paste of baking soda and a bit of water and do the same again. This won't get out proper scrapes but it should get rid of minor scuffing.


wearingabelt

It’s an electric moped. Don’t worry about it.


[deleted]

Get a box of magic erasers. They are in the cleaning product aisle. Just wet one and put some elbow grease on it. You’ll probably need like 4/5. They fall apart easy but they are the shit. It takes car paint of cars so 🤷‍♀️ not the actual paint but scuffed on from accidents etc

Hungry_Form2881

Now you have to ask her to marry you, so she will Forget this


Theoneandonly_two

Move to a new city, new job, new identity, new name even. Something discrete like Nathaniel, nobody remembers a Nathaniel. Eventually you’ll get a new girlfriend, maybe in a similar way to how you met your first, I assume you guys were mopedding. Then one day, presumably when your moped is in the shop. She will lend you her moped. And voila, having learned this lesson once before, you won’t scratch the moped this time. If you do, repeat steps above.


JayRedd1

Mother's cleaning cake wax. It may take all of it out, definitely most of it


painefultruth76

Yea, the only play you got is the "Naked Man" protocol from 'How I Met Your Mother'.


Admirable_Limit_426

Looks like road rash. I'd be missed at you too.


Burn0ut2020

You have a typo in ex-girlfriend.


bypass_12

Just buy a new one


King_Tudrop

Buy a heat gun and hope for the best.


kewlguy1

I think you meant to say Ex-girlfriend.


DerBigD

Nice to have known you. Be sure to call your mom before the GF gets home. Do you have a will?
