This same thing happened on my court only it was the neighbors car. It was around 1 am in the morning and I heard this loud bang like someone hit a metal garbage can and then a I hear the sound of glass breaking. I peeped out the window and the neighbors brand new eclipse had the drivers door complete crushed. I never saw the car cause by the time I got down stairs it was gone. They were pissed.

Sorry about your incident. Sucks that their are so many messed up people out there.

the total is in... $13-1400 in damage. no new parts needed, or so they think so far. the damage just missed my aristo tails...by 1 mm. very very close. that would have really sucked. now i can finally get it fixed!

Has your car been in the body shop all this time? That is quite a long time for that amount of damage.
