my car got hit, while parked
yeah you read right, my baby was backed into by a stupid girl driving a big truck. I have a 3" x 3" cut where the fiber glass was broken and its a bit scratched up. The girl's husband or bf said for me to take it to 2-3 body shops and get estimates and he will pay me. So, perfect time to get a body kit?!?!?!? . I agree, so i have a few questions about it. Will the whole bumper have to be replaced when i bring it in for an estimate? How much do you think they will quote me? I hope a lot!! It was only in the rear bumper. Well, i am going practice launching to go to the track for the first time in a couple hours.

Wait a minute...I have a few more important questions.
1. Did you take down their basic information? If not you should have.
2. Did you call the cops to have a accident report made if needed? If not you should have, even if it was private property.
3. Did you take pictures of both cars? If not you should have.
No matter what was said at the scene of the accident all of these things should have been done. I say this because I had a accident with a 16 year old a few months back and I truly believe if I had not done these things that I may have ended up paying for my cars repairs.
So to answer your questions...
IMO your bumper will have to be replaced but I am not sure about the amount. I guess whatever a new bumper, prep., paint and install that is what the estimate will probably be.
I hope everything works out man, keep us posted.

I still cant believe people continue to do this. If someone hits you, always always always call the police to get the police report and let the insurance companies handle it. Otherwise you are asking for trouble
