Default Someone hit my car

Well I went to the store the other day and found a note on my car.

"Sorry, I backed into your car!"

That's it. No name, number, insurance, etc.

There's two small paint chips and a small scratch.

Its Starfire Pearl, so the chips, which are black, although small do stand out. Anybody know where I can get some touch up paint online?

I just got mine at the dealer for $6.00. It is very hard to make it look right with the touch-up paint. Take your time and apply lots of coats.

The idiot that left that note is probably telling everyone they know how responsible they are for leaving a note. Unbelieveable.

If that's the kind of note they are going to leave I think I would have rather they not leave a note at all.

i think people saw that person hit the other car so he pretended to write a note with info...and instead he just wrote that bs. my old car was hit in a parking lot 2 times... and both times no note.

after you buy the touch-up paint check out this:

I think this a very good product, when I get my first chip or scratch I will try this.

I always park my car in the corner or else it can reduce the risk to 50%. SOrry about your car. I hate those f.cking idiots pretending to be a good citizen by leaving a note with a *****
