Sometimes you can just hear the sound of that universal toilet flushing somewhere upstream .... nothing you can do about it until the s**t passes, either.

And I agree, Rob, the worst part of the car damage is that people lack the sense of personal responsibility to own up ... "oh well, he'll have insurance and that's a big company. No reason I should get into it." .... this weekend I found black paint on the white bumper and saw a truck kick a stone up that sailed directly into the headlight. At least my damage is easily fixed -- even so, when they just walk away it adds insult to injury.

Meanwhile, Take care of yourself. Joe W.

Rob,

Really sorry to hear about all your bad luck. I cannot bear the idea that someone bashed into your car on a poxy bike, then did a runner without leaving a note or anything. Maybe it was a kid who didn't want to get into trouble with his parents or something.

Anyway, i'm sure that the damaged area will be as immaculate as the rest of your car soon enough.

All the best,
Greg

Rob, I had something similar fixed on one of my cars a few weeks ago by my local paint free dent guy, sure they'll be able to fix it,
in the meantime chin up it could all be much worse
