Default #1287 got hurt.

yesterday morning when i was sleeping, a 03 mitsubishi montero backed into my car. the driver was nice enough to come to my door and let me know while i was sleeping. =T anyway, my jdm right headlight, right fender, and bumper are slightly damaged. we switched information so everything will be fixed w/ new parts, only thing is the time and the hassle. my fender bent in a little, but my carbon fiber hood didn't. my carbon fiber hood was fine since it is a pretty thick cf hood. another purpose of carbon fiber, is that it is very strong for its weight. i think if the hood was oem metal, that it would have at least dented in or been damaged. the jdm headlight was strong too, just got scratched up, if it was plastic, it might have just cracked. anyway, still kinda sux for me.

yeah...big to the driver for letting you know what happened. i'm sure lots of people would prefer to just drive off and leave you to find the damage on your own.
sorry about your car, though. good luck getting it fixed.

wow, you park a jdm frontend Integra on the street? you have *****!

glad to hear your fender bender wasn't more serious, and that the responsible party was honest.
