Hit And Run!!! Pissed

Alright today at the Best Buy in Dublin...I went in for about litterally 10 mins and I came out and found a HUGE DENT in my bumper. I felt as if I was dreaming and this isnt happening. I looked all around and no one was seen. I asked everyone and no one saw a thing. I ran inside to see if they had camera's pointing out to the parking lot, but they didnt. So I called the cops to report a hit and run, but I knew nothing could come to this, because there were no witnesses on the scene. I mean my insurance will cover this with no cost, but its just a hassle and it makes me PISSED that people do this. I am extremely surprised that no one saw this it was 12 PM midday and no saw a thing, only after 10 mins in the store. Well there's my ranting and raving. I cant even look at my car it makes me sick its only 4 months old. So people watch out for you G, people are jealous and ruthless....

Sorry to hear about your baby!
I park as far away from everyone as I can. I know it is no guarantee but I
feel like I give myself the best chance that way.

Dang, sorry to read of your mishap. I know I would be highly upset for awhile, as well. My wife thinks that I am paranoid with all of my cars. I always look for what I call a "Primo Spot." Even then . . . Something can still happen.

It all boils down to people respecting others' property and doing the right thing. There is a serious lack of that these days.

I understand the pain. I seriously wonder why it's so easy to get a license now a days. I think they are handing them out to blind people now.

I hate idiot drivers. The least they could do is own up to their mistakes.

i can't stand that parking lot. I can refer you to the place I go to for repairs. Just take the bumper off and drop it off to get repaired and painted for about $250

Ambaplaya-
Ahhh, first of all I just want to say sorry for that unfortunate event. I had my first big den when my car just like 2 weeks. Same like you case and I was pissed. I am sure any den in the G would cost like couple thousand of dollars according my car dealer Elk Grove Infinity estimated, I dont think $250 would do unless it like a small rock chip on the fender...
And you were so right about someone would be jealous because you have a nicer ride, when someone do that to me, I would say "bite me". Hope thing going well for you! Peace!!!

Well I have couple of experience with that , If it was just an dent on the bumper? to replace the bumper and have it painted is around 650~1000 depends where you take it to, the replacement bumper is around 225~275 and rest are the paint and the labor to take it off and on...If just to repaint the bumper? it should be around 250... and I had a small dent on the hood once, it cost me 80 bucks from one of those dent removal guys, of course if you take it to the dealership? it will be much much more than that.
