the first thing I noticed in NYC was the fact that 9 out of 10 cars that were parked on the side of the street were dented and dinged. haha

OP, good to hear that the person is taking care of things!

It works too.... You didn't do damage or anything so ... the fuzz won't do anything to ya's. Reserve this for the idiots .... Just make sure to leave the core .... or it is a problem. ;-)

One day I parked it on the street in Georgetown, DC and someone did the same sh*t, and for w/e reason it made me real mad, so I kicked their front bumper and used my gf's lipstick to write that they shouldn't get so close to other people's cars on the driver's side window.

I live in Santa Ana, CA. Unfortunately, I have to park my Z outside on the street. I see beat up old cars parked really close to other cars. I hate it. I usually go out and check on it throughout the day. A few days ago, my wife noticed our 2007 altima had a busted tail light and dented trunk. People just dont care anymore. Why so much envy? We work hard for our cars and for someone dumbs**t to come and destroy is wrong.

I had this happen in a parking garage in San Francisco. Needless to say I envisioned a field goal and their driver's side mirror was the ball. +1 for the hometeam.

THAT'S RIDICULOUS!!!!

People have no consideration for others and they think it's just OK. It's not! I'm glad that you are turning this claim over to your insurance. That was certainly a collision and the fact that they did not leave a note could qualify this as a "hit-and-run".
The term "hit-and-run" is defined by any vehicle collision situation where the responsible party makes any attempt to avoid financial responsibility for what they've done.
Doesn't this just make you want to or maybe better yet and after you're done doing this then he'll look like this and maybe you can get back to this &

Sorry this happened to you!!

That's what you call typical "I don't give a **** parking in S.F. Only in the city do stupid a$$ park bumper to bumper. I don't even think about parhking my car to S.F. for that reason. I take my 94 Acura Legend everyday car.

i feel your guys pain on this one. luckily, i have a spot for the Z., but i have to parallel my honda every day on the street. I have been hit and run, bumped into, and one time some truck did the same thing and was actually on top of my bumper!!! I didnt think about leaving a note on his car like u did to send to my insurance. I was so pissed at the time I wanted to pop all his tires, but then thought........I have to park here everyday, he doesnt, so he would know and come back maybe. Dont need that. I have accepted the honda as a beater, and just dont care anymore. Everyone needs a beater.
