Close ! Actually this type of physical damage is covered by Collision Coverage - minus your deductable.

Better listen to me, I'm pre-med.....or is it pre-law
For reals? I got backed into at work a few years ago and I thought my agent said it was comprehensive as I was not "moving," and it could not be established 100% that the damage was caused by another auto.

Perhaps all that crack I used to smoke really did affect my memory? It's been a very long week since I quit.

I have to agreed. Anything that happens while u arent in the car is considered comprehension (falls under the same category as vandalism).. if u were driving it would be collision.

I'm thinking insurance wouldn't cover anything if you're the one hitting and running!

For the OP, on the other hand, you should be covered somehow...

i hope ur comprehensive deductible isnt $1000. Did you file a police report yet? File it immediately and also talk to your insurance company.

With full coverage, would you have to pay a deductible? Would it raise any premiums?
And if the damage wouldn't cost as much to fix as your deductible what happens?
whenever it is claimed under collision, your preminum will go up unless it was not your fault. But hit and run cannot tell if someone did it or you did it...

comprehensive claim wont raise preminum... or i will be soooo screwed...

if your damage is below your deductable you have to pay from your wallet... for example if your damage was 400 and your deductable is 500, then you have to pay it...

if damage was 700 and your deductable is 500, you pay 500 and insurance will pay 200

Thanks! I was reading the forums and people got Mtech Bodykit? how does that work?
unless it is not torned up or ripped off completly, they will not going to pay for a new bumper... all they are going to do is just send it down and put new paint on them.

they will do estimate.

dude it is all depends on whoever you have.. you need to call your insurance company.. we are not your insurance company...

they will deal with this situation ... not us... they have to look at it first before you do any work and just taking to bodyshop and get their estimate wont fly


so call their 1800 number and claim your hit and run... and just follow whatever they tell you to do.

also just put up pictures so that we can see what you are dealing with
