Default Hit and RUN!!!

Argh somebody hit my new car...!!! 30 mins before I get off my shift, I thought I would swing by my car to check on it. At first from a distance I saw what looked like bird doo doo (it was later discovered to be red paint marks) on the driver side mirror but when I walked up to it I saw that someone had hit it.... so I drove back to the station and asked someone to write the report for me... it just angers me that people have such disregard for other people's property and not have the common courtesy to leave a freaking note! Argh...

Sorry to know and hope you find out who did it or they think it over and let you know they did.

I just yesterday self inflicted a nice brilliant yellow paint streak about a 1/8th inch wide and foot long <---I'm hoping rubs off with some effort.....on my driver's front/side of bumper along with a 1/4 inch by 3 inch scuff mark down to black plastic base

I was exiting a parking garage and the yellow post is beyond and out in front of line where you would normally think to drive up to a window to pay something. I asked how often this happens and the lady said it happens, not sure she could say how often

Good news I guess is the scuff does sort of blend in with rest as plastic is also black and because it is all plastic there are no dents or dings as it just went right back to it's normal shape, now if I could just get the brilliant yellow paint scuff off.
