Some ******* peice of s*** mother***er decided to pull into a open parking space on my drivers side. Not only did he decide to park, he decided to run his front right bumper into my left rear quarter panel. My car has been unexpectedly repainted silver with a green stripe...Sweet huh...It is 10 inches wide and 2 feet long. Took the paint down to the metal and the composite is showing on the bumper. So, that means this dirty ***** hits the car, but instead of backing away slowly he decides he can still make it and keeps parking. f***ing dolt. Of course, no note, no sign, no nothing. Autobody guy is quoting me 3k + to respray the side of my car and replace the back bumper of which I just replaced 4 months ago due to another award winning, blue ribbon, 5 star f***up. Am I angry? -- you bet! Is there anything I can do? -- unfrotunately no. I gotta take it in the ***. Where I work, you would expect people to have respect and there is no question this guy had enough $$ to pay for it. Unethical people drive me crazy. You f*** someones s*** up ya better be ready to own up!

Thats some bad luck mate. I always find when you have this much miss-fortune something really good will happen to you in the near future, trust me.

Work parking lot? You might be able to find another car with damage... you know what color you're after.

Were there cameras anywhere in the parking lot or nearby buildings?

Yeah I looked for like 2 hours. Every emerald green car was checked. If I had a dollar for every bumper (all 4 corners) that was scuffed or marked I wouldnt have to cometo work. Tells ya how crappy drivers are these days. There must have been 25 possibles. I can't go around and accuse people though so I just have to deal.

I'd check again tomorrow... Seriously.
Maybe they'll be stupid and come to work again. Just think about how satisfying it'd be, if you found them!? Oh man.

Did you report it to the police as a hit and run? IANAL, but IIRC if you hit someone and leave without leaving a note, thats fleeing the scene of an accident.

You should definitely see if there's any security camera footage of it; most businesses these days have so many hidden cameras it's not even funny (in fact, it's kind of scary - I was talking to a guy who works for a local A/V company here that installs hidden cameras and such, and he says he pretty much assumes that if he's on property owned by a private business, he's on camera). Especially if this occurred in a company parking lot or ramp. I would bet good money there's footage of the bastard somewhere. Good luck!
