Well sh!t.... my neighbor hit my car

[halik]

So i got woken up by one of my roomies punding on my door because my car alarm was going off. As it turns out, my neighbor somehow managed to hit my car hard enough to break the bumper
Hopefully i can weld it back together and get it repained... sucks either way though

bummer

Hit and run, or did they stop?

 

Damn, that sucks. Who's your insurer? What street do you live on? Looks like it might be around Thayer/Catherine area?

BTW, what's all these threads about people and their accidents, cars and such.

 

[NutBucket]

Judging by the damage I would guess you could probably figure out which car hit you if the person returns.

No, she left a note. Apparently noone woke when she was pounding on my door.
I live down on state street (across from the im field). I'm really confused how she gathered enough speed to nail me that hard though.

Never underestimate the ability of a U-M student to become a complete and total idiot.

ya,
it takes a hot air gun with a narrow nozzle adapter and some polyurethane to weld it. I'm just hoping none of the mounts got messed up

I have had two accidents both caused by women drivers. One we were sat in a queue waiting we crept forward about 50 yards and she failed to stop and hit me from behind, the other she came up the side of me at an angle and hit the front end of my car, only doing 10mph and she cause 400 quids worth of damage!

hahah i read "queue" and got really confused...

 

[ajayjuneja]

umm, why not just get your neighbor or her insurance to pay for it??

 

[imported_Mike]

lol, I love your front "vanity" license plate.

 

[Goosemaster]

It's frowning at us....

 

[aircooled]

don't weld it. have your neighbors insurance fix it right by having an approved body shop replace it.

 

[otispunkmeyer]

whats with the massive panel gap between the bonnet and the top of the headlights? that part of the damage or have u had the hood up? either way id approach your friend next door for some repair money

sweet car though, needs a wash, but sweet

 

[imported_Mike]

Did you put an S4 kit on your A4? wtf... :thumbsdown:

really? I didn't know you could do that to a plastic bumper. I was being sarcastic, but if that really works, then more powa to you! Although with such a nice car, I'd get it done by a professional, unless of course you are a professional in which case I'll shut up now
