Angry FREAKIN' Hit and Run again!

So I was parked at Walmart this morning to grab a few things, ironically some quick detailer spray and came back home with this. There was a white minivan next to me when I left, and as I was walking close to the car I see this







Look's like he/she scraped my rear corner as they were pulling out, I don't think I am going to go thru insurance on this one, but damn this sucks. Of course, no note or anything.

I buffed it out a bit with some rubbing compound and got the scuffs out, but it's deep...

This happens to the best of us Habeeb. It is unfortunate, but can always be worse. Wal-Mart seems to promote this for some reason (lol)!!!

sorry to hear bro! and this is EXACTLY why I park as far away from everyone as possible - ESPECIALLY at Wal-Mart.
My wife got a nice fat dent about 8" above the rear quarter panel. Must've been from a big SUV door or something.
