Damage to the cat over the weekend.

One of the guys at my friend's house hit my car over the weekend...I'm furious with him....not so much because he hit it, but because he won't own up to it and have it repaired. I ended up calling the police and they are investigating it.
It was parked and the guy (or his wife) hit it when they left, they were mad and left in a huff, pealing out of the driveway. As they backed out, the rubbed against the car and dented it slightly.
I just want it to be fixed, but if the police find something to charge them with, they will do it.
It can't be done as a hit and run because it was on private property.

Here are photos:

That could pop polish out out in a matter of an hour maybe.

Just wait until the friend's next party, and back into their car and drive off... ;)

Oh, that sucks! Honestly it's not really damaged badly and could easily be popped out. But I know that's not the point...I hope there's something that someone can do.

You also need to tell your friend to get some new friends...

Unfortunately, it was my friend's brother....but that's besides the point...he's a prick anyway.

I know it's not bad damage, and if he'd have just said "Sorry" and offered to get it repaired...no problem. But he was full of attitude about it and that's what made me angry.
I don't think I should have to pay my deductible to have it repaired by my insurance company when it was parked and I wasn't even in it.

The marks will polish right out, and the dent may be able to be repaired with paintless dent removal, AKA a ding king.
