I just got hit

I showed up to my car to find that it got hit. Nobody left any info. So I was wondering if I get it fixed would it be bondo or new sheet metal? Also if I get bondo work done on it would I see cracks later on down the line if I start tracking the car?

and try asking those body shops or whoever that can do paintless dent removal, if they can still fix it, then maybe a spot paint job after.

No I didn't call the police. I didn't think of it at the time. Is it too late now, it;s been a couple of days now?

Actually if you get the rear quarterpanel they cut the old one off and re-weld it.

That dent would be very hard to pull since it's right on the crease marks.

OMG, your comprehensive insurance will cover it for sure, if you have it. same thing happened to my old car except the damage was much worse. insurance approved of the claim but then the person who hit me was honest enough to somehow contact me through police and paid for it.

You can order the panel from Mitsubishi. They will need to cut it and reweld it in. Maybe its time for an APR widebody kit?

You dont carry comprehensive insurance on your evo?? Thats crazy talk hehe, especially in SoCal. I guess your car is completely paid off then, cuz if its not you would have to have full coverage.
