Maxima got bumped

Woman in an Odyssey didn't look behind her in the dark, didn't hear/ignored my horn, and backed up into my left front corner while I was stopped.

Not much visible damage. The inner turn signal housing is cracked and I'll need a replacement, and the bulb broke, but the rest of the left frong lights are fine, the bumper and fender both look straight, and there are only a couple scratches on the bumper where it hit. The car steers fine.

Is there anything else I'll want to look at?

(btw... while I sustained scratches and $25 of turn signal damage, I put about a 4" dent in her back bumper which looks like it'll require replacing the whole bumper. Nissan bumper FTW )

Some lady almost did the same thing to me the other day. Some people souldn't drive.

Odyssey smackdown!

Glad to hear that your car wasn't badly damaged.

That happened to me a couple months ago. The mounting bracket for the bumper ended up shifting so the headlights didn't align properly with my bumper....

Ouch... I dodged that bullet, the light alignment is still okay. She wasn't going very fast.
