We've all been stupid before. For me street racing,showing off, Seems like when u get a fast car or at least for me you dont have anything to prove people know a vette is fast and u can just cruise and show it off insted of showing off. I hope the girls pull through.

Take your care to a Glass shop and see if they can buff out the scratches.

Your Translucent Top , will probably just need to be replaced.

1. Contact the police department that investigated the accident.
2. Tell them that you have some information to add to the report about property damage.
3. Take pictures of the damage and take them with you.
4. Take pictures of your vehicles parked exactly where they were parked.
5. Take these pictures both from the location that the accident occurred and up close.
6. Take pictures of the damage up close.
7. The insurance of the person at fault should pay for the damage without any further action.
Good Luck
