Got reared ended but was hit and run!?

If he hit a pole, wouldn't it be a vertical line of damage? ...I guess the pole could have been angled. So what's the verdict? Did you catch the guy? Did you fix the pole? What happened....?

Okay today well about 6hrs (CA 11pm)ago I got hit by a drunk driver in the parking lot and it was a hit and run. Dented my trunk in and cracked my rear bumper in the center, knocked off the Acura emblem. What should I do?? I didn't get to right down his license plate # and there were no cameras around. Anybody have any ideas what the options are to getting it fixed?? Like should I go to a shop and get an estimate and then either go through the insurance or try to buy a whole new trunk and bumper and get it done outta my own pocket?? I'm so piss but sad.

dont only think about the outside. theres stuff under the bumper that may be damaged. headlight bracket, bumper support maybe, etc, you never know until you remove the bumper and headlight. parts will be close to $1000, but labor will be around that also. when it comes to car repair, labor is usually just as much as the part cost

Maybe you should get rid of the TL and get something with less power...and very cheap to repair.......or stop driving. I'm assuming it was your fault. Dude, don't killl anubody
