I'm curious to hear what you guys estimate the damage will be on this. I've been on the road 8 years now and I take a lot of pride in the fact that I have never been involved in any kind of accident and have no infractions. Long story short I'm driving home yesterday and some deviants though it would be funny to throw a softball sized rock at my car as I'm moving along at 50mph. I had no clue what happened till I pulled over (initially thought it was a bird). When I saw both grills totally gone, a large gouge on my bumper, noticed the hood was severely bent, my fan was destroyed and radiator was leaking from a hit, and there are some small cracks in my windshield, I began to come to the realization that it was a rock.
I went over to have a word with the responsible party. I phoned the police as I was walking over and they were more responsive than I would have thought. They sent a car over. I walked down under the bridge looking for the deviants but couldn't find them and assumed they ran off. So walked back to my car and waited. A minute later a brand new jk jeep pulls up with a busted out windshield, same story (they had been hit at the same time as me and kept driving but then decided to go back). Then a minute later a suburban pulls up with a busted windshield, same story. This guy in the suburban seemed like a dude who would be happy to go below the bridge and find the guys which we know knew were still there but as we started to go the cops showed up. They took reports and immediately and within 30 seconds of their arrival the police helicopter was circling overhead. looking for the hero that decided this was fun.
I was pretty irate at first, there is so much petty crime in the city where I live it drives me nuts (and to the suburbs). I have comprehensive but keep a high premium as I don't get in accidents and it is a motivation for me not to. I'm curious what the dealer is going to estimate this as. It doesn't look like much to the average person but there's a significant amount of monetary damage here.
