I went back into the store and asked them if they had video of it but they said that area wasn't on camera. I was like WTF you gotta be kidding me!

That damage looks fairly similar to my car. I havent heard back from my adjuster so I couldnt give you a ballpark figure. Id say your looking at 3000. Theres a good chance your radiator support is bent along the crossmember in your lower frame. Did any tabs bend or break off on your intercooler for example? Is any piping bent? Good luck with everything. Your car will be fine and hopefully youll be able to find the person who did this to you.
The only description I got was from my two witnesses, they said it was an older SUV green/teal in color. He is also missing parts of his front bumper (which I found in the street) so I'm pretty sure he goes to the high school so I'm gonna have my friends be a lookout for me and tell me if they see anything.

If you had read my post earlier you would know why, here's the thing. My car was off, and he was going the opposite way. Meaning I would have to turn my car on, make a fast *** u-turn and follow him through a neighborhood. Class had just gotten out 10 minutes earlier and I'm not gonna sink down to his level and endanger the life of other people just to get some money out of him

Sucks to hear man! Cops don't do squat for hit and runs, I was in one a few months ago. I actually had people who chased down the guy who hit me and ran, got his license plate number, make and model of the car and the cops still didn't get him or do anything about it.
Good luck with your situation though man! I really hope you catch the guy.

Does anyone have a price list straight from Mitsubishi for OEM replacement parts?
