Default Got Hit at Work

Today was not a good day. I spend have the day breaking ice in a barrel with a pick, because someone decided to slash the electric cable that powered the water heater. So after that was done i went to another job site. I parked right in front of a truck and i was a close the sidewalk that i could get. Well when i got out of work what do i find? My mirror was pushed forward, I fix it and then check my door. Some S.O.B hit me on the side. No card or nothing was left so it was a hit and run. F*ck I'm mad.

It doesn't need park distance control, and hates decadence. It is musclepacked, yet lightly wound. It lets you feel the asphalt and get you going with the smallest touch of the pedal. It provokes, seduces, and demands to be driven hard. It looks, sounds, and smells like performance.

Nah he loves my car and likes the way it looks. Since there is still snow on the street i wouldn't be surprised if a car slid to the side and hit the Ti. But still they should have left a card or something.

that's what i was just going to say .... didn't you just get those m-tech side moldings on your car? that sux. i have to see about the damage done to mine not too long ago (someone backed into the front of my car and pushed in the nose piece and buckled the hood). other people suck!

i would recommend taking it to bmw certified repair centers (there are a number in denver) and getting estimates from them.

Ouch that sucks. The guy was probably pissed that you parked in front of him or something, jackass. Sorry to hear about that.

I parked in front of the truck to make sure i didn't get hit, since the truck stuck out more than the Ti did. But when i got out, it had already left. I think i know who it could of been. The electric company had a white van and was doing repairs on the street or it could of been the roofers they had trouble with thier van. Well here's new pics, all i know is it was a white car/van/truck. My dad is going to be calling the insurance later. Just hope they fix it without increasing his rate.

Well the insurance company is going to pay for the repairs all i have to pay to $250, just waiting for them to fax over some places that i can go in order to get it fixed. Just hope it doesn't take long in fixing this.
