My first scratch

I agree with Rasengan...if you didn't actually see your neighbor do it, and you have to continue living and parking near him, you should probably swallow your pride and get it fixed yourself.

Sucks that he wouldn't own up to causing the damage, but it sounds like there's a chance he isn't the one who did it.

Any chance there's some noticeable damage or some of your paint on his car door? I'm assuming it's a door ding...

I would be sure to say something like "man, I came out the other day and found a scratch on my car, took it in and had to pay $XYZ to have it fixed. Ain't that a crock? Wish I knew how the f... it happened - then again I'd probably put a hole through their knee with a .45."

Then watch 'em squirm. Almost makes up for it.

Guilt trip FTW!

I was thinking the same thing...

When I was really young I had an unfortunate drinking and driving incident... I was totally plastered and when I backed out of the spot at my friend's apartment, I connected rear bumpers with a car in the lot. I don't really remember doing it.

I went back to my friend's place a few days later. We left for most of the day and, when we came back, my car was gone. I reported it as stolen, but the cops said "It wasn't stolen, it was impounded for leaving the scene of an accident." It turns out that a tiny piece (about 1") of my rear brake light had broken off... the victim had kept it. When he saw my car, he fit it like a puzzle. Luckily, he dropped the charges when I offered to pay him $400 for a $100 scratch
