Someone backed into me in my work lot while I was in the car.

I did what a few of you guys in this thread mentioned, and got a quote. I just sent the other party this text.

Hey Mr. John Doe, how are you? I just wanted to let you know I went and got a quote at Champs auto collision center on Carrollton Avenue yesterday for the damage you caused to my rear bumper. They estimated it to be no more than $750 in damage. That's not to bad and I was actually surprised. I just wanted to keep you updated on the situation out of common courtesy. Have a good day.

Here is his response.

The Insurance company is handling

It is definitely not looking good guys.

IF the body shop is willing to go on record, you could respond with Mr. X, owner/mechanic/etc at Champs Auto Collision informed me that given his extensive knowledge of auto body work, the damage done to my vehicle is consistent with a collision where one vehicle backs into a parked vehicle. I believe that the insurance companies will appreciate this information in regards to determining fault in this situation.

At least put him back on his heels a bit
