Default Got hit in work parking lot

Thankfully, the guy was nice about it. Had to drive it around for a couple of weeks before Nissan body shop could get it in. Supposed to pick it up tomorrow.Got hit in work parking lot-01.jpg

Work parking lots and parking lots in general puts a car in harms way. It's good to have a 2nd car to drive to work. Sorry about your car, the good thing is you have the persons insurance to fix your car. My brother got the side of his vette crunch in a parking lot and the low life took off.

It would drive me nuts if something was 'off' or 'different' for the worse.

Somebody you work with or random good person?

Either way, my faith in humanity is reinstored!

Just to share, in my prior car, Eclipse, I was rear ended at a stop light. I jumped out, reviewed the damage (none), and told the lady it was okay. She didn't even thank me. (MLK Blvd in Louieville for you Kentucky people.) All the way home all I could think of was her rudeness and how I should have made her wait for the police to make a judgement.

Default I Got Her Back!!!!

Well, it took longer then they anticipated. Found more damage once they got in there. I got a new driver's side fender, new front bumper (aint she shiny), new driver's side headlight, buffed out other headlight to match, and repaired both front wheels. BTW ChuckW, it was someone I worked with. He felt really bad. I told him I would be mad at him until it was fixed, but thank him once I got it back. That fender had a dent on it from another incident, now it is fixed at no cost to me.

Drinks on him? Always nice to get your car back freshly painted!

Sounds like a pretty good outcome! The repairs look good, too. Instead of drinks on him, I think you owe him a drink. Like you said, you had damage to that fender already and your other headlight got buffed!

awesome outcome, but the I think you owe him a drink for being a decent human being, humans are like puppies, reward them when they do good, and smack them on the nose with a rolled up newspaper when they dont
