Angry Someone crashed into my car and took off @ mall :(

i cant believe the week im having
1st they steal my rotor valve caps,yesterday morning on way to work a rock cracks my windshield.now i go to the willow brook mall early this morning its early so there isnt that many cars there so i thought i got a nice parking spot close to the front entrance to food court.i went before work to get my girl a last minute b-day gift for this week and when i come back to my car some f***ing Idiot hit my front fender and ripped my bumper,broke my clear turn signal.
some kids that were skating board said that the lady that pulled out of the parking space next too me in a hurry and she knew she hit my car.i know what happened i guess.my car was pointing out of the parking space and i guess she pulled back to fast and either turned the wheel to quickly and struck my car or she reversed and her side door/fender hit my front.either way my car looks like crap now.i bought a second car sunday, got everything done to get it on the road yesterday evening.and i was planing on not driving the 8.
and now the out of pocket i have to pay
i cant find my stock orange turn signals either,and my friend might be able to get the fender done today.but the front bumper is ripped.so it looks like im really gonna have to order the mazda speed front bumper.but i just spent money on my greddy exhaust + my second car,ect.so i dont want to waist more money on my car right now.
sorry for the long post but thankyou for reading.

p.s im not going thru my insurance so its all out of my pocket.

im gonna upload the pixs now

Dude that is one suck week. PM me with your address and I'll mail you my OEM corners gratis. I'll even pay for the shipping.

Do you have comprehensive insurance and if so what's the deductible? Situations like that are considered no fault and even if your insurance payed your rates should not go up. It may be too late now since you've left the mall but I would have filed a police report (for insurance purposes) and asked if the kids would be a witness.

Thats sad! Don't people have any senseof decency any longer? Take bloody responsibility for their actions...... Guess I won't be staying in your area anytime long if I drive by it

Also, next time buy your gf a bday gift much earlier :p But all in all, hope it turns out ok for you.

Someon hit my 8 in a parking lot today too

I was VERY lucky.. I carry almost all of my detailing supplies in my trunk because I live in a loft apartment and I was able to buff it out with some Scratch X by Meguiars.. It will need some wheel work but that won't be too bad..

Sorry to hear about your week!!

Damn, sorry to learn of this Kel. Some people are real 'arseholes'.....thankfully your rims were not damaged!

Are you going Sunday? Perhaps some of our members might be able to help you out with parts etc....

Sorry to hear about your bad luck. Perhaps the mall has cameras for the parking lot? Maybe you can find out about the ******* through the security cameras?

my friend worked on the fender last night but it needs bodywork cause of that line in the fender.

PUR NRG i was able to find my oem orange turn signal but i wont forget the help thanks buddy.

i got a quote for 500 bucks to repair front and fender.
im save that money try to install turn signal,buff,wax, clean it up for now
till i save up to do the m/s front bumper.
and i have someone coming early for the windsheild hopefully i can get my exhaust early from fedex so i can knock that out and it will hopefully make me happy.
thanks again for everyones support.

Where are you wrt Cherry Hill? If it's reasonably close, give me his contact info - I've been looking for a good paintless dent removal guy for some (non-RX-8) dings.

Thanks,
