You just have to convince them to let you replace things with different parts and pay the difference. A lot of places don't like doing that from what I hear though. Might be easier now that 'ralliart' bumpers are the norm though.
Absolutely sure there were no security cameras around?

Unfortunately, in most cases, you need to pay the excess in a hit-and-run. At AAMI, you can be let off if you can identify the rego of the car that hit you.
Hopefully your security can catch the culprit.

that sucks big time erin. i would be so pissed too!
i have had this happen to me with my rear bumper, one day while out shopping, walked back to my car and noticed straight away the little circle tow hook thing was popped out. lucky there wasnt much damage and my bumper already had scratches on it from a previous hit(i knew who had done that one) and yeah no note or anything.
im contemplating getting a tow bar put on my car purely for protection. if someone hits me from behind its gona do more damage to them then me
a mate also told me there r cameras u can get, that u can stick somewhere on the rear of ur car that record everything. im guessing they would be the same as the crash cameras u can get which sit in the front window of the car.
im a big believer in karma when it comes to cars! so hopefully whoever did this to u gets what they deserve.
