Damn that is wrong

Someone needs to get their face well and truly pounded for that incident. I would look at everyones car and see who has the damage on their ride, then proceed to beat the living crap out of them!!

But that's just me

Sorry to hear man. My girl thinks I am an idiot for parking away from everyone else, but this is why i do it.

Hope u find the lame ******** responsible and give them a good

Peace,
Jonny

I am sorry to hear about your car. That is wrong.. and has happened to me as well. What are you going to do about it? Not much you can do, right.. (This is the pic your linking, just sized smaller).

It looks like someone was making a U-turn and backed into you.. or someone really doesn't know how to park..

Isn't the bumper plastic? Can you pop it back out? I know it will need new paint and all that but in the meantime you much just want to try to pop out the bumper by yourself.

My condolences.

I dunno what I would do in that situation considering the insurance company can't replace my aftermarket/custom parts.

I'd just go nuts on the next person that rubbed me wrong.

At least your lights are okay.

Good luck getting it fixed, it's a simple job, not too crazy.

That's what I'd do...and actually it's what I did about 4 days ago unfortunately. Like Jose said, at least your tail light wasn't crushed as well.

It's not that bad, you definitely don't need $1200 worth of work. It sucks that people just leave after hitting you. Around here, it happens too often.

I got backed into in almost the same spot. I was hit in the middle between the wheel well and the back bumper. The dent was a little bigger than a dinner plate. My car is pearl white and the repair bill was about 900...1200 doesn't sound too far off. Just make sure they are not trying to add fees in there that are not necessary. Look closely at the write up estimate.
