sorry about that... i wish there were cameras, but this was a empty lot across from a club. what really pissed me off, is that i spent 4 hours claying and waxing the car earlier that afternoon to get ready for Lexfest next week...

AHH! Sorry to hear. However, I am no expert, but it looks like there aren't many scratches and its just one big dent. Can't they just pop that out somehow?

nope... metal is creased... these were taken on my camera phone, so you cant really see the detail. also, my wheel got scraped up too.

Sorry to see and hear what happen....i always get paranoid when i park my car...i try to leave a lot of room between cars or park far away...I suggest going to a dealer or a dealer recommended body shop to have a look at it. Got my bumper replaced just last week and they did a perfect job on it...looks exactly the same when I first got my car even though it cost an arm and a leg but worth it! Looking at the picture...it looks like the other car didn't get damage as bad as yours. The driver was probably drunk when he backed into you.

ouch. Reminds me of the hit & run that happened to my dad and it was in front of our house! Turns out, some drunk kid decided to do a 3-pt turn. He later turned himself in (claiming he knew about the accident.. no doubt it was better he said that then get arrested for H&R)

OUCH. That's one hit and run I'd be furious about too. Are you going to go through insurance?

It really hurts looking at all the accidents that happened this week. I hope it works out for you and the car will look new again, no doubt.
