Here's the picture.....Still raining out.Luckily,that is all of the damage,as I stated.The hood,fenders,and bumper are all fine,no scratches.

now how in the hell does that happen and no bumper damage.

Id be looking for the green paint on someones mud bogg truck.\

better yet, scene of the crime looks like a pertruding object centered in the middle of the impact area and thats how the crown of the header (middle) was not touched.

I would measure from the center of the impact with a tape.
mark your tape with a sharpie
walk around work's parking lot and find the frigging truck out there with a ball / reciever that sticks out real far.

Im guessing its going to be a raised pickup. 

just eyeball the lot and the offender might be back.

this guy/girl is probably gonna park far away from their usual parking spot to try to go unnoticed.  take a day off if you can and scour the parking lot after everyone gets to work.

That sucks.  People can't drive and on top of that are just so inconsiderate.  What goes around comes around.  Karma will get whoever did that to your car Vinnie.

Looks like they came in from a hard angle. Such as backing out of a spot and almost being straight in the road when they stopped backing out. Looks like a bumper to me more than a ball due to the way it cracked in certain places. TC bumper and header panel with 5 lights $75 in STL
