Default Sigh

Luckily only damage is what is shown on the second picture. Seems like the PPF took most of the damage, not sure what the paint looks like underneath once the PPF is removed. Small paint chip near the corner of bumper and headlight, and the bumper is slightly mis-aligned. Driver has no insurance that I am aware of, he gave me his insurance paperwork which ended up being an inactive policy. I would've just asked for money...but the guy doesn't look like he has more than a $100 in his name...

Wished there was a way they can enforce auto insurance better. I have UIM coverage but it is still $250 out of my pocket.

Sigh...........

Man, Is this guy blind? How can he park that way with his truck clearly having damaged your car. Total disregard and respect for others' property.

Something like this would ruin an entire week for me.

I'm always parking in the "north forty". My girlfriend hates it but I tell her it's good exercise.

OP sorry to see this, I'm glad that the damage seems to be minor, but regardless, this should have never happened. WTF was that guy thinking...

This is why I park as far away from everyone as I can, I have even left parking lots if they're too full and I can't park alone. Yeah, maybe I'm nuts but I want to avoid a situation like what happened to you because I would literally lose my mind.

This is a pic my wife took a while ago to show someone how nut's I am when I park..

Ridiculous and awful. Sorry to see this. I'll echo what others have said: park a million miles away from everyone, because people are generally careless.

Internet forums make me like being around people less and less, especially car enthusiasts. The amount of full troglodytes making dumb comments and stupid decisions makes me question the human race.

I blame it on their parent(s) or lack thereof.

Seriously!!!

Sorry for hijacking your thread, equalme, and I really hate what happened to your car. I hope that you are made whole, soon. But johnnys comments were completely unnecessary. It's disappointing because I like his posts, usually.
