Default My Gs3 Hit While Parked

LAST WEEK SUNDAY MORNING I PARKED MY GS3 IN FRONT OF HOUSE ABOUT 5:30 AM. AT ABOUT 12:00 PM MY DAD WAKES ME UP AND INFORMS ME THAT MY GS3 WAS HIT AND I JUMPED OUT OF MY BED AND WENT DOWNSTAIRS TO SEE IF THIS WAS TRUE. WHEN I SAW MY GS3 I COULDN'T BELIVE IT. IT WAS HIT BY THE DRIVER SIDE FENDER, FRONT BUMPER AND BOTH DOORS HAVE A LONG CREASE ON THEM. UPON FUTHER OBSERVATION I NOTICED THAT THE LEFT TIE ROD END WAS HANGING OFF. I AM REALLY PISSED OFF. I NOTICED THAT THERE WAS BLUE PAINT RUBOFF ON THE FENDER. I ASKED THE NEIGHBORS IF THEY SAW ANYTHING AND NOBODY SAW NOTHING. THAT SAME DAY I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE MY GS3 TO A SECURED PARKING LOT. THIS PAST TUESDAY I TOOK MY GS3 TO THE SHOP AND ON WEDNESDAY THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER WENT TO THE SHOP. THE ESTIMATE WAS FOR $5,276.00 IN DAMAGES. THE SHOP I TOOK MY GS3 ARE VERY GOOD OVER 40YEARS OF EXPERIENCE. I'VE SEEN PICTURES OF OTHER GS'S THEY'VE WORKED ON AND THEY DO VERY GOOD WORK. ANYWAY THE GUY FROM THE SHOP TOLD ME THAT MY CAR WOULD BE READY A WEEK FROM TOMORROW.

Sorry to hear that man. I've seen your situation TOO MANY times. People parked their cars and later they discover their cars have been rammed in by some careless nut. I hope everything goes well for you.

I had got on someone the other day about parking on the street. I hope everything goes well, but don't never park on the street with a nice car. It seems to attract reckless drivers for some reason!

Sorry about that, bro.
It happened to me too, man.
The worst part is that these suckers that can't
freakin' drive don't stop and accept the responsibility.
They just leave and you are stuck with the headaches,
and the bills, cause you know the Lexus has to stay
looking sharp no matter what.
But in any case, good luck with the body work, bro.
