Friday the 13th INDEED!

Leaving work today I come out to see some A$$HOLE scraped my rear bumper on the drivers side. It caused the side to pop out and left a big white streak on my BLACK car! I managed to get the bumper back into place in the parking lot and you can't tell that it was ever out of place but after lightly buffing out the white paint there are some minor scratches. The best part, NO NOTE, NO INFO, NOTHING!! Don't get me wrong this isn't some huge accident (probably less than $400 in damage) but this is some ***** I work with and they don't even have the decency to leave a note.

Sometimes I really hate people

I would post pictures but I am too mad at the moment, perhaps later.

I've seen people hit and run in parking lots, every time I would write their plate number down on my business card and leave it on the owners car. Some people are just pieces of crap, I do my part to flush when I can.

Glad to hear your damage was minimal.

It sucks that this had to happen to you after putting lots of hard work in it, fortunatly the damage isn't to extreme. I hate it when people hit and run, no cameras on the parking?

Oh dear, I can understand your feeling Jason...
I discovered recently that my C240T had been reversed into (front) making nice scratch marks on the bumber either side of and bending my avantgarde grille. As usual, no note or word. Hovever, the other day a lady reversed into the front bumber to let a bus pass on a narrow mountain road. She didn't see I was stopped to let the bus pass. She will be paying for a full bumber repair and paint respray, but unfortunately I can't put the avantgarde grille in the invoice
