Sad about the bad luck bro... Hope you get it fixed right. What about the idiot? Any chance it was somebody who parks around you often, or was it at a mall or something public? Maybe you will see them lurking trying not to be seen over the next day or so... you might even call body shops and ask if they have seen any vehicles with similar damage in the last day or so. Never hurts to make someone else's insurance pay... especially when it was their fault. Fucking don't give the bastards a free pass if you can help it. You might even file a police report just to make it official.

luckily they barely missed the fender, but it still has to be painted to color match the door, thats what the body shop said. it happened in a parking lot, 100% his fault. since it was in a parking lot, the police said they wouldnt come becasue it happened on private property.

heres what happened: (ill try to explain it so you can picture it well, birds eye view)
I was heading north, and there were 3 other cars were heading south going the other direction, once the 3rd one passed me, this guy came from the west to head north, failed to check if my lane was clear, and drove right into me, and tried to blame me saying i came out of nowhere, complete bullshit.

oh yeah, since the police refused to come, it was up to us to decide who was at fault, and it was clearly him. but he keeps saying it was my fault, and if police came it would be clearly obvious to them that it was his fault. this guy just doesnt want an at fault accident on his insurance, he said he might rather pay for my damages out of pocket and not involve insurance at all, but once he sees that estimate, he's screwed, and it'll have to be done through insurance.

how come people are unable to drive without running into other cars these days? Tuesday was a bad day for me and other people. First I'm SITTING IN MY CAR in the parking lot at school and some girl in an 06 civicpulls up and proceeds to throw her door directly into the side of my car. Dents and chips the paint on the side molding. Then leaving school I about get sideswiped by a Chevy pickup. Good thing I was paying attention cause he sure as hell wasn't.

Heh sorry to hijack but I needed to vent. :angryfire
