Well...What are you gonna do??
I got rear-ended coming home from work on Thursday.
Sitting at green light waiting to make a left when the guy behind me thought he could just drive through me.
The good news is there was no real damage but I will have to have the rear bumper repainted.
The bad news is I have to convince the Jerk to pay. He refused to give his insurance info so at the moment all I have is his Name, address, telephone # and drivers license #.
Yeah I know, not the smartest thing but I was just so angry it was all I could do not to throttle the guy right there. only 4000k on the car and I have to have it worked on already. And to top it off the jerk says "it's not that bad, I'll take it to I guy I know and he'll touch it up!!!""
If my fiancee hadn't stopped me... I'll be going to my dealer tomorrow. Thankfully they have a great reputation for painting and body work.
I'll let everyone know how it turns out. I suspect it will be somewhere in the area of $200 CA to paint it.
At least I can come here and vent a bit. I can take some comfort from others who have gone through this..
Thanks all
