Hit and hide

Was it a sponsored Porsche event? If so there could be insurance availble through the sponsoring event. If it was a PCA event I would check with the local chapter and see what they say.

Randall, when you are not looking at it in a photo are there obvious contact or rub marks? That looks suspiciously clean, like a placed kick clean.... It would explain a lack of note too.

Randall -

Sorry for your misfortune, I would have to agree with above, appears to low for a bumper back in. Most likely somebody jealous of your car. With having to take my wife's car in to body shop once or twice a year you would be surprised at the ability to pull a dent out and cheaply too (as long as no major paint issue).

Also with the amount of traffic and security cameras in the Houston areas I bet it got captured somewhere, that is if you wanted to invest the time to catch the arse that did it.

I thought the same thing... but a swift kick would not push in the bottom rail 1.5 inches. It was hit hard and with some serious weight behind it.

Sorry about that man, i know the feeling.

Some guy backed into me in a parking lot, and people whitnessed it, and stopped them and got me (was inside getting coffee). We exchanged information, and he was very nice, and calm about it all. He had insurance, and I didn't have any doubts about it all. I file the claim, and 3 weeks later I call and figure out what is going on, and why it's taking so long - come to find out he "denied" the claim, and said he didn't do it at all. His insurance dropped the case, and I was stuck with the $1600 bill....

and I still haven't paid it.

No matter what, you have a great car and you have to get it fixed !

Still haven't paid it to whom? His insurance company? The body shop that did the work?

Hi Randall. Sorry to hear about your situation. It sure adds to the frustration that it was at a Porsche event. So make lemonade out of lemons. Do something nice or extra as a present. Do the entire paint job like you suggested.

You would be surprised what a kick will yield, having kicked probably more than 25 junkers on the way to the dump, I can tell you that could be from a kick, as Jonny said either way you have to get the girl fixed up..
