ok, 750 makes more sense. I didn't really believe you would only take 150.

Dang, guess someone is well experienced in getting rid of scratches. Where did you purchase all those from? I have a few light scratches myself I want to get rid of too.

I have the same problem. No matter how far I park away from everyone, somebody parks so close that I cannot open the driver side door OR somebody does a hit and run on the car.
^^u have to park somewhere where they can't get u. parking far away just makes ur car an easy target. park next to a good car who u think dont want their car to be scratch or park next to the end where if they go over the line u know they did that on purpose and just go in the other side.

to the op dam u should of gotten more to fix that and to fix the dent as well.

Holly shtt.. Seriously I wouldnt even care if they got fire. They're idiots and they deserved what they get. This only means that, they will mess up all the time and it will happen again to someone else. You should of called up the company and had their company pay for your damages. That would of been the smartest way to handle it.

Everything seemed reasonable... They keep their jobs and you get enough $ to fix your ride with some extra money to spare.

Lesson learned for them

They value their jobs @ $150; someone further up said $500 sounded better, I would have asked them how much they would make that day and say that's how much they should pay. That would teach them to be even more careful.
