So Frustrated hit & run - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Today I brought my Fiancé to the cancer center for her regular infusion. When we got there , all the handicapped spots were full , as was the the whole lot . To save time , I drop her at the door and found a spot way in the back of the lot , and a little tight for my opinion. But I figured I would come out and move it a lil later while she was in her infusion. All the time I still had a bad feeling. About 40mins later , as she was finishing up, I go out and move it to a handicapped spot. (Yes we have a permit). We leave and as I get home , I noticed someone had backed into the driver side front end. NO note , No nothing. I filed a report with the hospital security , and will hear back on if they have any cameras in that lot with footage. I also noticed pulling into the driveway , that my left headlight is uneven by about an inch. Now I have to find a good body shop in the Orlando area , as I am going to be very picky. Anyone in the Orlando area have any recommendations ?

Man...People suck..

Yes that sucks. All I can say is that can be fixed & worry about your Fiancé. I hope it all comes out well.

It’ll need a new bumper. That’s all

Especially at that type of facility, it could also be an old person that backed into your car and didn’t even realize it. These types of incidents usually proceed the “taking away the keys” by family members.

Still suck that this happened to you tho…

Shamrock in St. Cloud has always done good work for me.

Damn that sucks. Body & paint work isn't cheap. I inadvertently backed my wife's Grand Cherokee into a co-workers Hyndai last year. Trailer hitch took a chunk out of his grille, $400 dollar piece of plastic and had to remove the bumper cover to install it. He was surprised I confessed to it and fixed it for him. It's ashamed that some people actually expect other people not to do the right thing.

But it doesn't need a hood lol. Just the bumper cover.

Who am I kidding? That's exactly how I would think!

Wow that sucks bro!! It happened to me once even though I parked out in the "North Forty"!! lol. The bumper can be fixed and as love as your Fiance' is doing well is all that matters at this point. They didn't leave me a note either, just backed into my rear bumper with a trailer hitch ball... And yea people like this SUCK!! Good luck with the repair, and good health to you are your fiance'..
