Hit and run...I guess...

I was out fishing with my dad and some of my friends this past weekend. Anyways, I took the civic cause there wasnt enough room in my dad's truck plus he was dragging the boat. I parked on top of the road where all the other cars without trailers parked. Well...about 5-6 hours later I came back and my whole front was f**ked. The truck in front of me probly backed up into my car. Anyways...I just wanted to share a couple pics before the adjuster comes out today and does his thing...he should be here any minute now...

Damages: major damage done to hood, front bumper scratched, both headlights deeply scratched, driver side fender has a dent, front lip is cracked, passenger side fender is scratched, the top of the grill in scratched, and the little latch and the frame that holds the hood is twisted. I got an estimate and it was about $3000! This was at one of the best shop in Fresno. They're Dupont certified and their bodywork and paintjobs are life-time warrantied! For some reason I have become a regular customer...

looks like someone with big a** (elefant maybe?) sat on your hood. One could get to sit inside your car, so one had to be sitting on the outside.
No madness, just trying to cheer you up!
Hopefuly everything will be ok.

this really sucks...but i have great coverage so im not trippin. i was actually planning of painting the headlights and getting some stickier tires the next day, but now i guess ill have to wait til it gets out of the shop. i just ordered my carbon hood yesterday from a local shop, oem fog lights from handa and the yellow lamin-x filter paper from their site. Imma have the carbon hood painted to match the rest of the car though...im not much into carbon fiber, only doing it cause the hood is free. ill post some pics when it gets out of the shop.

make sure that your adjuster knows that you were not in the vehicle when this happend. an unoccupied accident wont affect you as much as just a not at fault accident.

Thanks. I gave a very detailed report when I filed my claim over the internet.

I dont know. It was 5-6 hours later and when I got back to my car most of the cars were gone, including the truck that was in front of me.
