I was sitting here on the pc, i have my police scanner on, i hear a call come over for a minor accident, they said 500 Block south centre street in front of the kelly line building, Driver backed into a tan car, Well, i knew where i parked and since i have the only Tan car on the block i raged, ran outside and saw my car smashed. Got info, his insurance will pay for it. Pics.




Stupid ****ing people should not be aloud to drive !:dammit:

 

What the hell do you need a police scanner for???

 

sad to hear that.. it coulda been worse though..

 

yea could have been worse...be glad that you caught who did it and your (your insurance) is not stuck to foot the bill. sorry to see that happen though

 

Because i had one for years and i just happend to have it on.

 

Well that sucks but look at the positive side at least it wasn't a hit and run...

 

This.

With my Maxima, I had my door caved in on top of a long list of other dents, dings, and scratches from oblivious people. All of them just took off and left me with the problems.


Now, I keep my car garaged. I get to work early enough to get the one spot on the lot that I have a 99.999999999999999999% of never even being in the position to get damage. Now if only I could keep salt off the roads

 

Sorry to hear about the car. At least nobody got hurt, and your not getting stuck with the bill.

 

Damn, at least you got their information

 

F****** BASTARDS! give thanks your alright brother it'll get fixed cleaner than it was before!

 

Ive had worse hit and runs in a student parking lot

 

hit and run at work when i had my old 240. sad part is half my co workers so it but didnt get a plate number

 

Damn and I remember how clean your car was at the valley forge meet last spring.

 

atleast the guy didn't run away. My car was involved in a hit & run, managed to get the license plate, but damn police hasn't done anything about it. Now I am stuck with a ****ed up left quarter panel and rear bumper. Just be happy yours got fixed.

 

Well there have been some issues that have come up since the hit, Insurance is still in the process........... Tire rubs when i hit a decent bump, weird growning and squeaks from the rear, Check engine light comes on and off..... something got tweaked up back there, it was pushed into the curb pretty hard, the rim took concreate off the curb where it hit.

 

They might total the car, axle is bent and so is the dog bone aka lateral link. Still in the process....... it was hit on the friggin 16th and there still ****ing around.

 

Well, whatever happens make sure you get what you deserve for the car. Which is never the first offer... Also, if they total it, make sure you get the buy back rights! Between those two things, you'll be alright. Either fix the car yourself, or part it, and get something to replace it.

Good luck man!

 

The car is going in the body shop tomorrow, Going to be fixed up like new, I know the ppl and i know there work, It is excellent, When i get her back i will be sure to post photos of the repairs.

 

I wouldnt be too pissed at that because the guy did not take off, he actually called it in. He could have just drove off, atleast who ever this was man'd up and took responsibility for their mistake.

His insurance is taking car of it but dont scold this person too much, just giving credit where credit is due, too many stories of hit-n-runs

 

Yeah i know what you mean, i did not call or complain at all, it just seems its taking forever, it happened on december 16th , but the next day after the adjuster was here i got a $3500 check for repairs and a free rental, just the weather, holidays etc takeing its toll.

 

looks pretty awful

 

Well the cars been in the shop for a few days now, I been driving a 2011 VW Jetta with only 500 miles on it, its a 2.5 Litre 5 cylinder, and no thats not a typo lol, its kinda neat, has a 6 speed tiptronic transmission.
Rentals are fun.

 

I got to see my car today, weather and parts delayed the repairs but it was in the paint booth today all clean fixed and warm, waiting on the paint to be redone, they where not happy with the outcome and are going to redo it, 4 more days at most he said!! cant wait, i saw all the new parts laying there and stuff.

 

That's good! I'm glad everything worked out for you!

 

dang dude that stinks. at least you are alright.

 

Status?

 

All Repaired, I beleive i made a thread on it. The trunk deck and fuel door have been re aligned also after this photo was taken.

 

Damn that's messed up glad you got it fixed out of there pocket and not yours...

 

I have similar damage, the shop cut the rear quarter out and will add a donor panel in. Did they do this for you or did they pull the dent and bondo it smooth? I am still waiting a week or two to go before I get it back. I am also getting two new doors.

 

They completely removed the entire quarter, they had to remove the glass, you can see in the door where the new panel starts.

 

For real, we got hit by a damn drunk who totaled my car.

 

Yes i know, thats terrible, iam glad you are ok and you got that bastard that hit ya.

 

Haha at least the car looks great now and you have a new part!

 

Mine ended up totalled

 

Luckily you are not injured and this will be an easy fix. My wife got a similar accident on my max, the guys couldn't stop his car on the red light because of the iced road. It got fix and there is no trace left of that accident. Good luck with the repair.

 

Wow excellent job on the repair.

 

I cant figure out how to post pictures .. or I would show you my car. It got hit by a 199-something Jeep Cherokee that was lifted .. and had a home made metal bumper on it! It really effed up my car good, in the exact same spot as yours!

 

i hope u get it fixed
