WHy was he backing in the first place? I got backed into at a light a few months ago and the girl said I rear ended her. Now I use a dash cam.

The driver was a SHE! Baxster goes into the body shop Monday.
I am going to try and remove the factory stickers that has build information on it from the dented hood using a heat gun and razor?

The same thing happened to me in my 914 years ago. The truck started to make a right turn out of a parking lot, then realized he couldn't make it in time, so he backs up. BEEEEEEP!

There is a tag under the hood with the car's information on it. Very carefully remove this tag and move it to the new hood. There is no issue with a new OEM hood on our cars. Just take some photos to document the damage for future buyers. Good luck

The exact same thing happened to me a couple of years back. A guy driving a lifted Toyota backed into me at the Burger King drive through... even while I was honking as loud and long as possible. I couldn't back up because there was someone else behind me. I was open minded to handle it outside of insurance, he got a big surprise when he got the bill.
Look on the bright side, 'Baxster' will come back looking brand new! |

Stay as far away from trucks (at least the high ones).

Baxster
As you probably know, "Baxster" is the mascot for the Phoenix Coyotes!
