My wifes 99 Oasis got backed into, happened while the car was parked at work, unfortionately it's a shared lot with other buildings and the person who did it just drove off. I was able to pull most of it out myself, but the bumper is still a little saggy on the drivers side, I'll have to take care of that later.
Here are some pictures she took shortly after the accident, the car is in a different spot, obviously they didn't back into from the grassy area:
We have full coverage, but the deductible is 500, so it's hardly worth it. It turned out pretty good from me straitening it, I just need to raise the bumper slightly on the drivers side yet.
The hardest part is probably the hood. You may get creases when straightening it out. Other than that as long as no paint is lost you should get it back pretty well.
A truck once pulled the bumper (!) clear off the front of my Accord at work once, in the pouring rain no less.
Depressing being told what happened to your ride and you go outside in the pouring rain looking at your bumper on the ground next to your car, while getting drenched.
Thankfully the Dodge Ram hubcap thing fell off while ripping my bumper off ...
I went back to work the next day and matched it to the only Dodge Ram missing one, and phoned the police soon after. Ended up writing me a check.
Funny enough it was someone who I knew, and had no previous disdain for. He walked into the conference room with the police officer and I, and we both look at each other like "crap".
Said he thought he felt something while pulling out of his parking spot but wasn't really sure ... Heh.
Anyway man, might want to see if you can find any green paint on any of the cars in the work place - just in case. There aren't a lot of green cars running around, so.
How could someone pop you that hard and then drive off, or no one see it...
This happened to the boss here one day, but was caught on our freshly installed security cams... hi def none the less. Lady pulled in behind and popped the car good, at least a 10 mph hit, then pulled out and hit it on the way out.
Cameras got a clear shot of the woman, her unflinching facial expressions and her license plate.
It was street parking, the lady was local and the cops had a field day. I think she got like 4 tickets....
I am not an expert with cars at all, so please bear with me, my husband drives a 1995 Honda Odyssey van, it shakes really hard and I was told it needs 3 motor mounts, when I went to go order the motor mounts I was asked if one of them needed a selonoid valve with it, I have no idea...I can't...

I have an 1999 RA3 (Australian version) which is based on the US 1995 - 1998 series and I'm having issues with the drivers side (RHS) power window regulator which is of the sector gear type and I did some research and it came up with a plastic gear on eBay but there is nowhere online that...
