At the body shop
Well right now I'm sitting at the body shop getting a repair estimate on my evo. Few days ago somebody tagged the front end while the car was parked at the mall and drove off leaving no note 
hoods damaged, fender is destroyed and the headlight is busted on the driver side. Sucks being out $500 in a deductable this time of the year. Anybody else have any fender benders this winter so far?

My wife got rear ended in her Acura TSX. Some high school kid hit her with his big crappy toyota truck with brush gaurd. Didnt hardly scratch his. Took 5 weeks to get fixed. However they did a great job, and even fixed a few paint blemishes that were no where near the damage area. Still sucks, its like getting robbed.

Last winter a 16 year old girl who still had a restricted liscense was driving around with her friends and she backed into my parked EVO while I was about to walk in the door of a friends house... I turned around and the girl tried to run away but I ran towards her car and started banging on her pass door until she stopped. She cried for like an hour and the cops made her parents drive two hours round trip to come pick her up. Boy was her insurance company cooperative

My accident damage sounds similar to yours. The day before Thanksgiving coming home from work, a lady swung into my lane as we were turning and destroyed my passenger side (fender was destroyed, pass. side door wouldn't open, light was messed up, and the bumper was shot). She decided to run, but the cops and myself caught her. Her insurance finally took care of it 2 months later. The bill was $3k with labor.
