Be glad for the note. The left and right side of my rear bumper are scraped, and you can guess it, no notes...

I am a firm supporter of harsh punishment of criminals regading vandalism of cars. I want it right up there with armed robbery when jailtime is determined

I thought you had crashed the E30 doing some crazy donuts on a parking lot... this is not that bad afterall, easy fixable (if the other pays) and as said... you're lucky he left a note, not a very usual thing these days sadly...

finally my baby has a new lamps - not an orig BMW lamps, but aftermarket ones and they look pretty same as the originals, even the colour is same

I mounted them on satturday, met the guy a while ago and got payed. sorted, case closed

no pics of new lamps yet as there is ugly weather last days...

Great news, Mihal!

Nice to know there are still people around with the decency to leave a note and pay for their mistake. (I know, I sound like an old fart...)

My car was dented almost two years ago and the moron responsible didn't have the courtesy to own up.

I was wondering if it was solved eventually, cudos to the guy

btw I saw the car with angels and xenons and I must say it looks pretty good, angels look on the pics as fat circle but its not so thick at all. driving e30 with stock lamps in the night is as driving blind so xenons are must for e30

we I know what I'a talking about as I cant see s**t when driving my car

It makes you sound old, but when somebody flees the scene of an accident that you're involved in - leaving a note means quite a bit. My car was "backed into" while some broad (could tell by the handwriting) was parallel parking in front of me and she left a note.

It read: "Srry. i dont hav a lisense."

no BS.

I was

I sure hope their not "lexus style"

j/k......very popular by the BMW boy racers here... (not insinuating that Arman is a boy racer:P)

ARMAN · « **Reply #52 on:** 29-Jan-2008, 23:19:46 »

^^ hey!

mine is purely stock... including stock shocks, springs and filters from factory from 1989

MIHALS · « **Reply #53 on:** 29-Jan-2008, 23:39:54 »

^^^ it's only tuned by a Czech Rust Power Kit

the lamps I bought look basically the same as the original lamps, so no "I wanna keep it as original as possible - and then rice lamps addings" happened

LOL! Like that would make you feel better about the damage...

There are also people who pretend to write a note when they notice witnesses to the accident. Instead of putting down their phone number or address, they write some bs and leave.

Old my ass, it's utter shit when the guy that hits you doesn't have the decency to leave a note, I should know since some jackass hit my car while parked in the front fender and I ended up wandering around at 12 am looking for a police station while only able to get in the car via the passenger door since mine wouldn't open anymore, at least I had insurance and they fixed it, but if you don't have it you're fucked, having to pay out your own pocket because an idiot can't give you his insurance and take 2 points or whatever on the license.

danidmas · « **Reply #56 on:** 30-Jan-2008, 11:40:22 »

I was lucky when a guy hit my Meriva on the back... along with 4 more cars LOL! The note was not actually his... but it was from the police, with the details of the guy that damaged the Meriveyron. He was quite sorry and friendly when I talked to him to know the details of his insurance...

Anyway, when I was young... that is... a loooong time ago, I remember I scratched a very old Renault 5 when I went to the uni... and since it was my parents car.. I left the scene without leaving a note... I feel ashamed, but the scratch was not really that noticeable... and it was not the first on that car either

Today I started testing webcam in my car for the rebel run. first, the sound was too over-gained, so it wasn't possible to use it. now I found the way - in the webcam proggy record the video and in the separate proggy which can lower the gain, record the sound. it's very easy to put it back together, so I'm ready to go

just ignore the camera angle and the video colour, that's not a problem at all
