yes, but that is because you live in the ghetto.

Steve, where did this happen? Also, unless you caught the guys plates or someone else saw the incident then the police are pretty much out of options, so there is no need to get all worked up over it. Just turn the claim into insurance and get your check.

my car happened to be in the ghetto too...
FONTANA!!! Todd let them know wassup with it in the hood!


I don't think I'm going to turn the claim into insurance company because then my insurance will go go go go go UP again...
and I don't need that... I'm getting a new bumper anyways
so why bother.

Steve, that is all up to you. But, what you could do is report it and get the money from the insurance company. When they hike up the price, then just jump ship and go to a different company. The issue here may be that you are young though. Do you have your own policy or are you combined with anyone else?

You can usually get better rates when you sign a new contract, that is because of the way the commissions are set up for the agent/broker.

They get better/bigger commissions on new customers than they do off of renewals. That is why most of the time they can pass a bigger saving on to you when you sign up as a new customer.

I'm still under my dad
so I don't want him to have messed up record because of me

Most insurance companies will not raise your rates or ding your record for acts out of your hand. Examples: hit and run, sand damage or rocks from freeway driving, flood, fire, or anything else mother nature can throw. I have State Farm with full coverage, and have put in many claims for hit and runs, and sand damage. My corvette got a new windshield and paint job because of sand damage and it costs me the $250 deductible with no rate hike or anything. Call your agent and ask about it before writing it off.

Yes Steve, accident forgiveness is the new hype among insurance companies.

Well, if you have a $1000 deductible and your repair cost is near the deductible don't report it. Just pay it out of your pocket when you hit a major business deal to recooperate the expense.

Peter your T/A bumper wont fit 986 boxsters unless they have your 02-up headlights.

I don't believe in accident forgiveness because it is really hard for me to forgive the one that damaged my car.
they might need it when my knuckle accidently slip and land on his face.

major business deal? Calvin Klein make me a model
