okay the whole story. i went to do an estimate for a job today for some electric work. to comfirm locations for some trenching i walked out side with the company owner. then i noticed my driver side front fender was damaged , aand i told the owner we have a problem. he looked at and said order a fender and bill him. i them proceeded to explain it is not a bolt on fender.

well we walked in to the shop and asked the mechanic if any one had been around, low and behold it was the owners brother who did not mention it to anyone. we then looked at his work truck and found some scrapes so i pulled the car around and all the marks lined up. he had left for the day so i could not choke him.

they said they would take care of so now i think i can finagle a free or very cheap paint job out of it.

here is some pics

Free paint job? I don't know. I think I'd rather choke him!

how can you *not* notice you just ran into someone? and then just walk away ... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif)

i had my beetle parked in a lot once, on a hot summer day, so the window was rolled down about 1" ...
when i came back a couple of hours later, i open the door and there's an envelop on the drivers seat. i open it up and it's $200 bucks and a letter.
someone had hit the car and put a small dent in the bumper (barely noticeable) and they left the note with their address and all, explaining that they had waited for 15 minutes but had to leave and if the money wasn't enought to cover the damage, to please contact them ...

i was 18 at the time and $200 was a lot of money back then, but i certainly learned a lesson that day.
if i'm ever going to hit another car, i will never ever just walk/drive away ...
