Thank you all for your responses. No luck yet on catching the perp, but I'm asking my neighbors if they saw anything. Again, thank you all for your time. I found a good body shop today, and they quoted me about 600 dollars for each panel. Luckily, my insurance does cover it, so I'm all good.

I know I sound like a broken record, but thank you so much for your responses! Have a great day everyone!

My friend had his rear bumper repainted at a reputable shop that uses quality paint. and they did it for him at $550.

At that rate, using quality paint (better than stock) you might as well re-do the whole car lol. :tup:

i agree with repainting the whole car and then clear bra-ing it. might as well, sounds like quite a few panels were damaged and this way you can get quality and uniform paint along the whole car. + might wanna make sure there arent any damages on the roof, i heard that roof damage could compromise the structural integrity of the car when u need it most even tho it may look light. chances are prob not cuz it just an egg but to be safe might wanna take a look urself for damage.

Done at Nissan, get in good with the service manager and you can get deals done.

Man i hate to hear this news man, im currently going through the process of getting my Z fixed after some gypsy lady parked into my car, literally, take a look at the thread i started entitled, i got it-help

AS long as your insurance pays for it, i would paint every single damaged part. MAke sure to ask the auto body a lot of questions, go to someone who has been in business over 15-20 years
