Same thing happened to me, except the driver didn't have insurance and left shortly after. Then the police woulnd't show up because no one was hurt. Dallas police blow.

UGH! Dude that sucks. I hit a deer 3 weeks ago and my car is still in the shop. The Ip is a hard color to blend according to the body shop. I should be getting mine back this week. I really hope your gears aren't screwed up and your frame isn't fubar'd.

Ha ha, "behemoth that invaded my car's personal space".
Hope the damage remains superficial. Good thing you didn't hit the car in front of you.

haha, just for you..

i'm thinking it's just the trunk lid that's tweaked a bit. you can tell that the right side was struck a bit harder than the left. maybe the forces popped it out of place a bit.

Not too bad. I work at a body shop. and seen alot of cars with this damage. And sometimes there is damage behind the bumper cover that you cannot see till you take it apart. But my guess would be a new trunk lid. new Rear Body panel, bumper cover and stuff behind it. to see if your frame tweaked, look at all the gaps at the rear of your doors to the quater panel. if they are still good and not touching or one side closer than the other side, than your frame should be fine. hopefully your rear floor did not colapse! I seen alot of cars come in that looked like your damage, and once the body guy opened it up. WOW! major damage. But I wish you the best, and hope it's not that bad!
