drunk drifer hit my car last night. I need a right back quarter panel used so i can save money. We found the guy because my friend got a plate. He got arrested for DUI. anyways looking for a quarter panel. Anyone please email me. Suck just washed the car and parked away from everyone at the end. Atleast my friend can point the guy out in court and got the plate. Drijnking and driving is a no mo. Possible looking for inner wheels well guard for right rear. thats all the damage i can see but incurance comes monday.

Don't forget to sue the bastage for diminished value on the car and the whiplash you got when you fell off your barstool.

You might want to check out the price of a new one. I think they're only $300 or so. Used ones might come with their own problems - micro cracks that only an expert can see (until the gradually get larger).

Highly unlikely that a minor fender bender will make it to Carfax.

Glad you weren't in the car, but I know it still "hurts". Make sure his insurance pays for a loaner while your C5 is in the shop.
