You would think that valet parking would be far better than self parking. Not the case, I came out to pick up my car the other day and this is the surprise that was waiting for me. While they admitted to the accident and are going to pay for the repairs, i'm just so busy i don't have time to go get it done. I'm hurt fellas, true hurt when i see my baby in pain like this.

Have them buy you a new OEM painted bumper and that should be it from the looks of it.

That fucking sucks... Get it appraised and have them give you a check. Then take it to fix it.

Thats fucked up now that I look at the pics more...

OUCH! It's not even my car and it makes me want to want to cry.

Maybe I should valet park. I've been meaning to get my front bumper re-sprayed.

Where did this happen? So I can know where to self-park

Did you file a police report? get their insurance information asap and file a claim through their insurance policy. That way you dont have to pay a deduct and get a free rental.
Your gonna need a brand new bumper, repair time on your fender, blending, new headlamp, new fog light insert, your reinforcement is damaged too. the fender liner might need to be replaced but i cant tell. Your estimate is well over 1000. If you plan to get an estimate and take care of it yourself, your def going to need a supplement

<------ insurance adjuster

My cl was hit in a parking lot 2 weeks ago thank god the person left a note and his insurance policy is paying for everything

I valet for awhile. Would never even valet a tricycle because everybody would take the car for a spin around the block and say that they missed the turn. Most guys could even barely drive and could careless.

That stinks but I wish something like that would happen to mine because it has alot of tiny rock chips and holes for the front plate it does not have. I'd love a new pristine bumper.

Sorry, hope it gets done as painlessly as possible.

DLntheCL

sorry to see that shit, i bet you were pissed! i think valet would only be good in high crime/car burglary areas, otherwise i wouldnt opt for it. picking a good spot (often far) will always be the best option. unless im parked right next to an extra wide hadicap space im always at the deserted area in parking lots because:

i came out to see my car being used as a grocery cart stopper one time. stupid bitch had the nerve to use my car as a "holder" while she took groceries out of it and into her car beside me.

Ok so i got the estimate...looking to be about 911.11 in damages total. That is the right headlight assembly and a new bumper painted. There is no need to get the insurance. The parking garage has had problem like this before so they have a company which handles their claims and cuts a check after the estimate is mailed to them.

I was think for this amount of money. Is it possible to get some other kind of bumper or front kit. Something. I looked at the Ron Jon stuff but thats just a lip...I need a bumper. I think i read awhile back someone buying one a new bumper for 200.00 they picked up around the philly area....wonder if thats for sale???

Just so you guys know, the parking garage is in Old City Philadelphia. 6th & Walnut I can't think of the name but its behind the park across from Independence Place.

Oh yeah, if anyone knows where i can get a higher estimate i wouldn't mind stopping there. Acura btw does not do body work so i'm unable to get Acura people to do the work.... stupid Metro Acura

Try another Acura stealership, a lot of them outsource to body shops.

It looks like the idiot hit a parking pillar, I work in a place that has an underground garage and I'm sure someone hits one of them at least once a month. (However, there is no valet)

Here's this idiot who smoked too much hookah:

Yo MinTS, what part of philly are you from?

Oh1TypeS

Damn Sorry to hear that man, I valeted in SF for 4 years while I was in college...and well...DON"T EVER VALET YOUR CAR!!!! I used to get payed to beat the fuck out of ppls porsche's, ferrari's, aston's...name it. Never samshed anyones shit but I worked with a lot of ppl who did. They will employ any fucking idiot, keep that in mind.... You should have no problem getting the money for it, they have to keep a good insurance company.

I would never let any of those dip=S*&%^ park my car. I once watched some valet burn up a clutch in a brand new Porsche.

VIPCLS

Well I dont know how ur gonna pull off any aftermarket stuff if you have to show the place you actually got the car repaired or if the claim that the body shop ect gives you states the cost and labor, and parts are stated ur gonna have a little prob. I dont know the circumstances of the incident, if u can just give them a estimate and they just cut the check, def look for the highest estimate and give it to em it, if thats the case. Sux though it could have been alot worse though. I finally just repaired my car, and I will tell u it felt like a black cloud over my Ack everyday I drove it until I got it repaired, so I feel ur pain. Good luck boe

Hookah or weed??

Hookah dont do shit.....

MinTS

I'm in the Manayunk area. YOu'll see me on Kelly Drive most of the time. And yup i do have that black cloud lingering over top. Now as for money, its is suppost to work like this. I submitt the estimate and they cut the check. Hopefully its that easy.

spoolindc5

First of all I would never let one of those valet parking punks touch my car, I see than speeding around recklessly all the time. Secondly The valet company should cover all fees for the damage and rental car
