Someone WALKED ON my car- Damage Estimate please - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

Came out the morning of the 3rd to find this on my car.

Looks like a drunk kid jumped on my rear bumper and then mounted my trunk and ran across my roof then jumped on my hood and then down. Left perfect finger prints on trunk (cops wouldnt pull them) and nice dents all across my car.

Obviously Im pissed. I got a police report and will be getting quotes to get it fixed through my comprehensive coverage.

I want some qualified or educated guesses if possible from some people.

I went to a PDR shop and they told me the location and depth of the dents is not fixable. They said the hood is toast since its aluminum, and they couldnt do anything to the roof. Said most likely $3000+ in damage

Thanks in advance.

I would camp out for weeks so i can walk all over that douche's face!!!!! Some a**holes I feel your pain bro.....

RupertPupkin · 06-15-2012, 03:44 PM

Yea thought about sleeping in the car the rest of the week until he did it again. So uncool.

It sucks because the damage isnt horrible, but bad enough to take away value from the car, and look bad. I cant just let it go.

I don't really see much other than scuff marks. PDR is your best option if there are dents. if they quoted you $3000 find someone else. I wouldn't take one company's estimate.

idrift4wd · 06-15-2012, 03:48 PM

they look like van soles. so look for kids wearing vans

RupertPupkin · 06-15-2012, 03:48 PM

Ill try to get better photos of the dents. Theyre are defnitely dents, wavy ones at that.

PDR places said they wont touch it. Literally went to two different ones with the same response. They both said to go to a body shop. Ive been told new hood, and either bondo and repaint, or replace roof.

Thanks for the thoughts though.

+1 Vans.

Even though other people can't tell, you know there's an imperfection so it'll bother you till it's fixed. I'll ask my friend who works at the body shop and see what he says. I hate hipsters....

RupertPupkin · 06-15-2012, 03:54 PM

Haha yea why didnt i get an m3. fml

hope the damage can be fixed

i was watching some vids on youtube, you might be interested in this little camera. motion detection so record if detected movement. not the best but didnt research much into it. good luck and hope you find that SOB

RupertPupkin · 06-15-2012, 04:00 PM

Yea man thanks. was looking into one of these hours after this happened. Cops said they would have done more if there was video anywhere. sucks they wouldnt take immaculate prints from the trunk.

Kernel Kurtz · 06-15-2012, 04:03 PM

I'd try and preserve the prints yourself.

Maybe call a private investigator.....

I hate that cops never do shit about things like this.
