Worst day ever ***Updated with pics***

So everyone is having bad days lately so I think this one will be right up there with everyone elses. I go to the gym and I never drive because of all the problems there but today I drive because my friend I'm going with didn't have his car so I go do my workout leave and go next door to walmart only to look back and see a huge dent/crease in my passenger side quarter panel. Some may remember I had a huge dent/crease on my drivers side a few months ago and had my WHOLE car repainted. So I call the cops make a report. Go to my friends house and am going to leave and my friend backs right into my car with his Bronco, cracks and dents the bumper. So pissed right now pics will be up in the morning. Sorry for the length but at least now I get a front end conversion.

Sorry to hear it... at least you are looking at the bright side of things... Remember, in the scheme of things, this is just a hiccup and in a few days/months/whatever it won't even matter. Cheers.

My car has a sweet new paint, yet I drive like it's a destruction derby vehicle.

First you people with new paint are nuts for drivin all crazy. Now I have good news finally. The guy that hit my car called the gym and told them and left his name and number so now his insurance is going to cover it after mine wasn't because I don't have that coverage. Pics are about to be uploaded. The first are my first hit and run and the second are from the other days hit and run. Basically the same amount of damage. The first estimate was just over 3K and that was cash and lower amounts of labor and fixing everything instead of replacing. The second will probably be right around there.

First hit and run:

I only go to one of the best body shops around. The first one doesn't show the whole thing. The rear bumper needed to be replaced and the passenger side door was all messed up. And now the RQP needs to be replaced and this place isn't cheap. I only had my car sprayed for paint there and it was over 1K. Just to get a quick estimate on this place my dad's 2002 Lincoln LS needed a fender and it was like $1600.

EDIT: And on the new one you can't see but in the middle of the QP it is twisted and kinked towards the wheel well and a crease goes from one end to the other. There is also deeper scratches that can't be seen because of the sun.

Sorry to hear about your car. I'm still a little shocked at the price of repair. $3,000? 1995 Maximas have a blue book of only $4500!

How many panels were damaged? Just the quarter panel or were others bent/damaged, too?

Well, as long as HIS insurance is paying, might as well get the best!
