Ah, sounds like you are getting a real taste of the joys of LBC ownership.

It helps to cultivate a zen attitude and not force things. Take everything
in its turn and try not to get frustrated. Taking a break can be a good
idea. Inanimate objects are not actually malevolent even if it seems they
are; conversely, threats, curses and rhetoric have no effect on them,
although it may make you feel better. If you have to hit something, I
suggest picking on one of the other objects in the garage, such as a
partially inflated soccer ball, or the lawn chair cushions. Most parts of
the car are much harder than your fist.
