Default My left rear bumper was a victim of a hit-and-run

I left work two days ago to find that my left rear bumper was dented and scratched severely with a wide mark, likely left by a large truck trying to take a turn too quickly!

I just put the new license plates on the weekend before!

The irony is that I park my car as far in the parking lot away as possible to avoid dings!

Oh well, that's what insurance is for...and what a $500 deductible is for! The body shop is going to simply replace the entire rear bumper, with an estimate of $1100.

Sorry to hear... that's a relatively low deductible though at least.

That sucks! That happened on my M3 and regardless of the damage the fact they take off is infuriating!

BTW Check with your insurance, I lowered my deductible to 250 and it was 8 dollars difference a year!

Good luck!
