Aw man, that just blows big time!!!! Insurance rates are high already, because of insurance fraud, but this sounds like fraud to me that the insurance companies are perpertrating!! If the other party doesn't have insurance, the insurance company should go after them, not take it out on you. Sorry to hear dude.

It seems like it's quite a bit more than $1000. Or are most of those just scuff marks? I mean it looks like it got part of the rear quater and obviously big time on the door. If they have to replace the door skin and reweld part of the rear quarter...that's big $$$ right there already. Add paint on top of that too.

This is one of my greatest fears, because I know I will go OFF if I get hit by someone who doesn't have insurance...and if it's a male and he's not apologetic things will get ugly very quickly.

That sucks man. Good luck to you

i've always wondered if the other party doesn't have insurance, can you take them to court and sue them for small claims and then if they don't pay - perhaps put a lien against their house?

any lawyers out there?

c.
thats what your insurance should do actually. your insurance company should go after that guy so your premiums dont go up. i've never had a good experience when dealing with my insurance company. i always have to be pulling teeth for things to get done the right way

Thanks for the inputs guys...now for the questions...is it enough to paint the whole car? I mean, if I'm going to pay $1000 just for deductable...I wana paint the whole car...so...does anyone know of bodyshop that can hook me up? I dont care for the quality of the paint for now. I just want to respray it. If anyone knows of someone that can help, I'd appreciate it. THanks!
