here's an update: there is no update

And my car was hit on the passenger side. Significant damage across both doors and the rear quarter panel (dents, paint transfer-awesome)....I believe it was the asshole who parks next to me in my lot at my apartment. Couldn't be more depressed right now.

Earl

Sorry to hear=( Pictures? Do we need to get the gang together to coax the truth out of him?

I'm game to put some hurt down. I have a new weapon too! It's a turbo manifold.... on a stick

YoungCR

That's lame

denialchild45

Yeah it really blows. Pics aren't the best, and that front passenger door is way more dented in than the pics. Oh yeah, and you can tell they somehow got the wheels as well. I'm headed back to my apartment to see if I can get the security footage from the parking lot I'm in. The guy has a monstrosity of a mix-matched colored dodge ram...that he feels the need to back in to his spot. Just by looking at the truck I feel he doesn't have insurance. He also has a shitty 90's trans am which he backs in too. Which was also crossing over into my spot last night (This guy seems like a real winner). His truck has also been MIA the entire week which makes me think he is hiding the vehicle/getting it touched up. I assume they can always test the paint transfer on my car to see the make/model of whomever hit me.

My biggest fear at this point is that the work may exceed the current value of the car. If they do that, then I'll have spent the money getting my additional parts painted for nothing.. Ugh!

I feel a small rant coming on...

holy fuck. That's bad. Really bad, for being parked. Guarantee that shitfuck is hiding his truck out getting it touched up. I seriously hope there is security footage of your parking lot.

God I hate people. This is why I drive my car from my garage, to my private work parking structure, or to the track/shows, and that's about it. Parking in public places of any sort in the year 2015 is almost like blasphemy for me. I don't trust poor people and for good reason - they are careless with what little they do have, and by extension care absolutely nothing for the troubles they create for others when their carelessness negatively impacts people around them.

I hate people. This shit grinds my gears a lot. Probably because I work my ass off and own a bunch of properties so I have a high sense of ownership/responsibility in life and cannot relate to the notion of not taking accountability for one's actions.

Backing up a pickup/truck doesn't make you a douchebag, it's the only way I can get my Suburban into spots sometimes. Every other bit I agree with though. That's pretty pathetic he's hiding out for the week.

KaiserRolls

Seeing stuff like this makes me angry.

Wibimmers west side story shit coming on. I can feel it in my plums.

denialchild45

Alright, so he hasn't been back yet. His Trans Am was there one day, otherwise no one has been next to me all weekend. Insurance claim was filed and should be getting it looked at today/tomorrow. To add insult to injury, I took off work early on Friday to speak with my apartment manager and he informed me there is currently no DVR system in place and the cameras are inactive in the parking lot/building as a whole (makes me feel REAAAAAALLY safe), so I can't even prove it was him unless insurance makes me fill out a police report/checks the paint. And I'm not saying backing in your car makes you a douchebag, backing in your car and not knowing how park said vehicle makes you a douchebag. The lines in my lot are all even with each other and if you can line your car up with someone else, then maybe you shouldn't park like that.

Here is a pic of the Trans AM. Granted he's still "in his spot" he's still can't park that well. Whenever the truck is there, I have to back out to have my passenger get in because they can't open the door due to his amazing parking skills.

*More updates to follow

Going in for my estimate today.

denialchild45

Ok, car is again not back, but now there is an Impala parked in its place (still parking like an asshole). I got my estimate, but since I financed my car, they put the bank's name on the check as well- Does anyone know if I can deposit this directly into my own account or is this going straight to who I financed with?

wasnt m3

They make sure the bank gets paid first. If that impala has any bar code stickers in the windows, you can be sure it's a rental. If that's the case, you know his vehicle is in the body shop.

i_love_cars

for sure, check the impala for bar code stickers

denialchild45

Impala has been MIA and so has the truck.... Part of me is thinking he up and moved. I asked someone at the building if they have seen the car (this person kinda helps in the leasing office/homebody/weird ) and she said they haven't seen the truck and that they think the lease ended this month. Office Manager said to have my insurance company contact him and he'll approach the guy, if he's there. If not, I do have the truck's license plate information. Any suggestions on how to proceed or say f it and just get stuff fixed?
