    Hit and Run!

    So I park my car, and go in to the bank. I come out and find this..








    What it's supposed to look like..


    Now...

    EDIT: Angry words changed. No longer THAT angry.

    Whoever did it left no info and it sucks b/c my insurance is liability only(shoulda gone Full cov.)
    I was already planning on getting a paint job this summer but idk..
    What do you think i should do guys? should i get it repaired/painted at the same time and how much do you think it should cost to paint the whole car? im going with cappuccino brown with metallic flakes in the clear.

    That dent doesn't look that bad at all, be happy there doesn't appear to be any sharp creases, you probably can take of the wheel liner, and with the palm of your hand, pop that area back out. It still sucks though.

            Also i wasn't parked outside the bank, i was parked a little further down in front of the grocery store.. i thought of that also.

            doesn't look that bad to others but shit... I gotta pay for it out of pocket. My cb is my baby, even a little dust irks me..

                nothing = no dents.
                It's definitely not that bad, it's just irritating that the ass left no info leaving me with the costs.

                    Most dealerships have a paintless dent removel guy. Call a couple around your neck off the woods and see what you find. They are normally pretty cheap. Cheaper than having anything painted.

                      ya but they only works on smalls dents not a good size like the one he has. and good paint job is around 2gs and up depending on where u go and how good the shop is man that sucks thou getting hit and no info left

                        I've calmed down about it alot. I was just so heated when it first happened.. -_- but, no use being mad about it for too long, just gotta find a solution. I've been asking around my area for some good body shops so we'll see how this goes.. I might end up leaving it, and saving the money to get a 00-03 cbr F4i

                        But a Perfectly shiny, smooth, new-looking cb7 is damn tempting..

                          I would be pissed too but it seems like it can be removed easily.

                            Yea, I'm hoping so.

                            Anyone no how I can access the back of that panel? do I go throught the wheel well/liner? or go through the inside and remove the rear interior panel?

                            I looked up some gutted interior shots, and it doesn't look like i'd be able to pop it from the inside of the car.

                              Before you go and drop any money on it, seriosly just try removing the wheel liner and push it out with your hand, it should pop back into place leaving a ding no bigger then a dime. As for the scratch in the paint, maybe try some meguairs scratch-x polish. You really can't make it any worse if you use some common sense.
