Default Hit and run, damage assessment please?
Well my sister had my car and it was involved in a hit and run in a parking lot. I've attached some photos below and I'm curious if any of you can assess how bad the damage is and how much you think it'll cost to have repaired...Thanks again!

Holy **** !!! that would be couple grands to fix it. My advice is to go back the parking lot and see if they have any camera around the area. I just want beat the **** out of those hit n run drivers.

Well, it is in Florida. Chances are pretty good...

And yeah, I'd blow a gasket if I were to walk out and find that kind of damage.

although it doesnt look severe but its probably gonna be a bit of body work on both the doors and rear quarter panel. if you have insurance to claim, that's great otherwise it might cost up to 2k give or take.
