got hit.......
Sitting at a light got rear ended, then she ran away. $7,588.40 in damages. Boy my *** is hurting. I guess I needed a little new paint. I asked the body shop to not total my car. Cop looked at the car and said "it's about $500 worth of damage", I laughed, Nothing on a Corvette is $500.

Wow, she hit and ran? What a bitch! I don't understand people. Funny about the statement to the cop... Ain't that the truth.
Hope you get it all squared away and get to feeling better!

They should have arrested her *** for hit and run, fleeing the scene, something! That crap happens here in NY all the time, mostly with drunk drivers...

That reminds me I need to put mine into the Vette. I had it in the Camaro and took it out, but haven't reinstalled it.
You mount the front in front of the mirror?

Did you ask for diminished value from the insurance now that the car is going to have a hit on Carfax?

Same thing happened to a friend of mine. When the cops caught her she was charged with leaving the scene, evading an officer, no current drivers license , false statement to an officer and outstanding warrants. In jail now!
