Sad Day!! :(

Yesterday, my car was parked on the street right next to the side walk minding its own business when a lady across the street backed out right into her! Now shes got a fatty dent in the door However she did come and give me her information so we can get it all fixed.

****, I feel your pain!
The same thing happened to me last year too! Not as bad as yours but painful none the less. Don't worry it'll be fixed before you know it.

Yes your right at least the lady fessed up and I am sure it will be good as new soon. My wife's 2006 VW got hit in the passenger door yesterday and whoever kept on going. It's just a VW BUG but it's my wife's new car. She is really bummed.

I'd say $3,500 -$4,000 with a new 1/4 panel and door skin.
In my opinion pulling it is not an option.

Ouch is right. I will be insanely furious if anything ever happens to my car. You'll get lots of repair advice on the internet, but pick a good bodyshop and go with their recommendation. They'll know what's in their abilities.

That sucks, seems impossible to keep these cars in perfect condition. Even with our cars not in motion, we still have much to fear.

That sucks! Good thing the lady stepped up... Your Pony will be back to normal soon. It's the waiting that really gets to you!

(speaking from experience, my Pony is STILL in the body shop from my crash last month)

Hang in there!

Sorry to hear that! My parents gmc had a door smashed into it and it left a huge dent and chipped the paint. The idiots never even stopped or left a number.
