That SUCKS so bad. Its happened to me, my mum, my best mates sister...and each time the wanker who did it just drives away.

As for the lancer sticker, i would think any signwriter, but thats a bugger too. peraps ask the dealer where he got it?

Thats shattering man, i know your pain. My damage probley aint as bad as yours but after about 2 weeks after getting my car....My brothers girlfriend backed outa the garage when my car was parked on the right hand side of the driveway and scraped the side of my bumper.

I wanted to get the whole bumper re painted, n him n his girlfriend were like you can get touch up paint for that.

I eventually got touch up paint, put some on there and it looks TERRIBLE!

Ive gotta get it fixed properly, but had a 'family fallout' so im gunna have to take it up with the insurance, but i dont know if they will fix it since it was so long ago...Shit happens ay.

Not as worried about it as i was back when it happend but yeah.

Yeah touch up paint usually looks like shit close up but on the road I'm sure you can't even see a thing. I will get some quotes next week then start saving, just paid off my credit card last night too!

I rate u first go to the university security office and report it there. I know a few people got caught like that at my uni, coz the officers would have noticed damaged cars leaving.

Yes I did that as soon as I saw what had happened. Went and asked if there were cameras or if anyone had said they saw anything so I will keep my fingers crossed that they get back to me but I don't think it is likely

Just some info, the side skirts come from mitsubishi already painted, so dont let the panel beaters charge you for painting a new one.

No way that was a door lol... Id say someone tried to reverse in becasue even if it was a 4wd there is not that much flat surface at the front.

That's really sad that some lowlife could do that and do a runner!
