Hmmmmmm, :( . Someone hit my car, knocking the front bumper/spoiler off a bit. Also broke my headlamp wiper and dented the grille frame. Headlight is also mis-alligned. The guy saw an opening through traffic at an intersection & punched through just as I was on the left turn lane coming to a stop to make a left turn. Stupid guy said "not your fault, not my fault, the lady at the intersection stopped with a gap and signled me to cross". I'm like, "what, so it's the lady's fault? you're the one who punched through w/o looking". Bad thing is I don't think he has current insurance. G-Dangit!

That's a good thing!!

If he doesn't have insurance... then that means all your junk gets paid for by YOUR insurance and you pay NO deductible!!!

Uninsured motorist = no deductible for you!

You know what's F-up? Canadian insurance companies just raised insurance premiums to most people by an average of 20% with the highest of 30% in the east coast.

They also jack your rates even though you were in a not at fault accident meaning you were not at fault.

Messed up huh? Auto insurance will be a basis of a campaign party next election.

I think it's illeagal and if someone gets caught, the car gets impounded. But a lot of people still do it.

Yea s500. My body guy said it's hard for him to tell w/o ripping the front bumper apart. could range from 300 to 2000, depending if the front bumper's attachment points got ripped apart.

Brabus,

would my insurance company use this as an excuse to jack up my rate?

If the insurance company allows me to get a new front bumper, I'm hoping to replace the c36 front with a Wald front. What u guys think?

Thanks for all the support :) .
