Default i got hit-HELP!!

two weeks after getting the 40th anniversary, some old lady hit me in the parking lot. My car was parked, i was not in it, and she basically pulled in and scrapped/damaged the entire left side of the car!!!!!!!! My question is, do i have to take it back to Nissan and get it painted/fixed there (isnt it some custom paint that NIssan used???)))) Or do i take it to a local body dealer, obviously a guy i know???? PLEASE HELP, im so pissed right now!!!! who hits a parked car???????

The best body you can find that uses only genuine Nissan replacement parts.

that's why I park far far away. Sure it draws extra attention since you're the only car that far, but throw in a gps tracking device and you should be ok. Take it to Nissan, 40th's have a special color I doubt anyone will be able to properly color match...good luck.

You don't need to take the car back to the dealer if you dont want to. Any trusted bodyshop can get the paint.

Dude that sucks!

Did anything get damaged that is something you would want aftermarket?
A nice bumper or something?

Also make sure you claim money for loss in value, as you had a brand new car and it will now be a repaired car. Maybe put that towards some other fun goodies to make you feel better.

For now, nothing you can do about, so go get a drink!

Sorry to hear about your bad luck but I know how you feel. I also park away from everyone but always come back to the car to find someone parked right next to it.

That happened to me last year at work. Chick hit my parked car,left the scene,no note,good samaritan saw her and told me license plate#.She claimed she did'nt realize she hit anything when cops went to her home.

People really don't know how to drive.

are you going thru your insurance company? If so they may recommend shops they deal with.

Check with your insurance company and check around. The dealer might have a crappy body shop.
