Came out of my house today and someone ripped half of my Viggen front bumper right off, Scraped the hell out of it, cracked it under the IC opening, broke the headlight washer/wiper, and the plastic under carriage pieces. Here's the classic part of this, the person didn't leave a note but parked 4 cars down. Huge scrape down both doors of their car and the rear bumper fascia was ripped off. Low and behold it's my fucking neighbor that lives in the same building as I do. No note, no nothing. I mean if you’re trying to get away with it, parked a few blocks away, fucking idiot!

Fucking Chicago sucks! They will not come out for accidents of this nature, I have to go down to the local precinct and file a report. Knocked on the chicks door and she confessed to it. She is a pharma rep and gave me some BS story that she was supposed to be at work, so she didn't know what to do, whatever. Thank god she has a brand new company car, great insurance so everything will be fixed. But I just can't believe that she parked so close and didn't leave note, total chick tool!

this is normal for most major metro areas. even in my little city of Manchester NH they have much bigger things to deal with then a Hit and Run where no one is injured and you know who did it. honestly the police are involved for the report only.

this does really suck though. glad its gonna get fixed though.

Actually she is very cute, but her BF is twice my size and I'm 6-3. It will be fixed, but what sucks is that now the car will have this on the car fax, but whatever I guess. No body damage, will need a new bumper skin, headlight wiper motor and all the plastic pieces under the driver side. I was very fortunate that nothing happened to the body of my car, but what is a trip is that she hit my car starting at her front door. Proceeded to keep going which creased both of her doors, her rear bumper, and it ripped off the bottom fascia. I mean come on, you know you have just hit a car and just keep driving forward? DUH!

Brought it to a shop, 3,400 to fix it which really is a joke. But they included the grill, the light, painting the fender, etc. The fender does need to be fixed, grill is fine, light works. I'm taking the money and running. I'll find a used/non oem skin, shoot it with some paint, get the plastic wheel well pieces myself, take old off, install new myself. I've taken that bumper off a few times so its easy. Should save myself 1500-2 gs.
