Default my car was hit today

Tha car was parked and he comes with a Lumina and hit 3 parked cars in a row.
The man has near 80 years and its handicapped. The most damage was to my car. The other was a Mitsubishi Mirage but less damages in the same place. The steel on mine is raged near the lens. The insure only cover $3000 for both car.
The thirth was hitted by the front wheel but was a Cherokee (high level) No damage!
I suppose only that the bumber cost over $1000. WOW.
The old man bought the car 4 hrs before.... to hit mine?

this is the main reason why I feel after a certain age.. it should be required that you re-take your driving tests.

i agree with magnetik...i hate when **** like this happens a headache out of nowhere, you can probably pick up a bumper on CL, would be cheaper and easier was your body damaged too? or just the paint?

Have the estimated for the job: $1689, including a new rear bumper. He has to paint the rear panel and the left top roof.

Need to know where I can find a bumper and the center trim. The quotation is $740 for this 2 pieces only. Only found the front bumper at auto parts but never the rear.

UZ214: the real panel is damaged so it need to be bonded.. uff

It mite be are hard thing to match the paint all up. Try to see if your guy can suck a little more money out of your insurance company to paint the rest of the car.

Definately time for some paint and a kit. Might as well spend a little extra and stand out since you already need a new one
