Hit the Z again Ok these people really need to stop, they are hurting their own cars. Got rearended when the person in front of me hit their brakes, I hit my brakes and the person behind me, well their brakes weren't as good as HPS pads. Inspected the car and had her white paint on the passenger side rear corner, her car had a nice dent on the driver's side front corner. I let her go since her damage was more than I had. I claybared the car and used the touch up paint from Genicolor and it can almost pass as if it was never hit at all. Will post up pics later.

ok picture time
The yellow circle you can see where the bumper dropped down a bit, have to touch that spot up. The green I went a little too crazy with the paint and the red you can see the crease.
From just a bit of a distance away, you can't see anything, even the mistake I made with the touch up paint that shows in the top pic. On the lower part of the bumper, it had scuff marks and white paint, I used the claybar and the touch up paint and you can hardly see anything.

kind of confused here. what i am getting out of this is that someone hit the back end of your car and you let them drive off, and now your showing us how you are trying to make your wrecked rear end look better?

lol, gonna assume here, it was either a:
-hot chick: her looks got the best of you. wanted to be the nice guy
-older lady: didn't want to be mean. wanted to be the nice guy
at least your's isn't too bad. How's the general condition of your paint/car overall? With my paint having the many flaws it does, I might be inclined to let someone off if my car wasn't too messed up, instead of getting insurance involved. Of course the other persons behavior/actions would influence this, depending on how they act when it happens, and HOW it happened. If my cars body/paint was flawless, or close to it... it'd be a different story though!
