Ugh! That sucks. Fortunately looks easily fixable and your car is white so the paint is easy too. Bummer though, I feel your pain.

Ouch! I feel your pain, that is a tough one . . . I can't even imagine watching that happen. Well, hopefully the insurance process will go smoothly since you have the other person's info and the shop will have your car back in shape quickly.

Good luck!

OMG - what a moron -- he didn't see a white car? Can't imagine having to watch that -- I'd be screaming my head off: STOP, STOP. Was he on the phone by chance? Or even worse, was it a she?

It was a teenage boy driving his Dad's ford bronco. The bronco's damage was some white paint on his bumper (not even a scratch). Damage came to $2101.00 so far. I will be getting a clear bra installed.
I am very pleased with the new fender but there was some over spray that they had to remove from the rear tailpipe and rear bumper. I have no idea how it got on the rear.
