Unhappy A Sad Story......

Last night coming out of the mall I noticed my car was hit in the parking lot. I got hit in the Left Rear side of my car. My bumper guard needs to be replaced, have to get a new spoiler (carbonfiber took a nice hit), and left light cluster. This Is all obvious replacements. Also my 1/4 pannel took some damage from the wing getting shoved into it, and my trunk got crumpled from the wing. yes, I found the wing if very strong, enough to bend the trunk lid and the 1/4 pannels with out even comming off. I havent got any real estimates yet, but i'm sure it'll be around $4000.
There goes some money for mods... I have insurence but still $500 deductable will still put a whole in my budget, so now my mods are held back until the spring.
I dont have anypictures uploaded on the internet. Yeah i hate Hit and Runs, looks like a trailer or something hit it. My poor baby.

Sorry to hear that. - Sucks people don't even do the legal thing and leave some contact information for you to have them pay for it.

I hope this wasn't at Walmart.

If it was at a mall sometimes they have cameras monitoring the parking lot. they may have who hit you on film.

sorry about that. the mall security should be able to provide you with some footage of the accident if it was close to a camera and find the culprit.

First off no cameras outside the mall... yeah
Yeah their is a lot of vandalism in this state, just a lot of people dont respect others accomplishments. Another kid from my school with a hooked up rice mobile (looked nice) car got stolen and got stripped almost to the frame and was found on blocks.
Yeah the damage does not look too bad, but when it comes down to it, its bad. Like the CF wing, quarter sized chunk missing out of the left side, and its messed up where it was mounted on the trunk. I know there is damage a little on the inside, specially when the trunk is pushed up a lilttle on the left side and i cannot get the spare tire cover off. The dealer ordered some of the parts already, (spoiler, bumper guard, LR cluster). They just took a quick look at it until I get the Insurence clame back then i can get a real estimate, and i'm sure once they take that bumper, and other pannels off they will see other damage that will bump the price up a little more.
I'll keep you updated, I have pictures but I got to get my internet site back up so I can use the URL.

It really sucks *** that in a public lot like a Mall or Walmart, no one has any liability. I guess it's the chance you take going to those places and parking near other people.

Sorry to hear about your misfortune.

True. Not only in NJ but all over the 50 states. No matter where you live there's always people will do such a thing. Expect the unexpected and be careful with your car. Sorry to hear your car got hit and run.
