Angry M3 Was Involved In A Hit & Run. Need A Great Bodyshop.
While I was leaving school and getting on a on ramp for the freeway, someone decided to get out of their lane, ram and grind against me which almost sent me to the concrete wall! Thanks to the suspension, I was able to avoid that. Then the guy had the nerve to not pull over and exchange info and see if we were both ok and decide to run! I was able to get his plate info and his car and model of it. I reported this to the CHP and I need to bring my M3 to them tomorrow so they can inspect it and find the guy who will regreat doing this. Unfortunately, I only have liability and I'm going to make this a civil matter when the time comes. Now, I'm just looking for a bodyshop who can repair my frame and paint.

Does anyone know of a great bodyshop that can do repairs at a fair price?

For a body shop, it would help if you tell us where you are located at.

Yea, shame on him because he hit the wrong guy lol. I'm not worried about finding him because I will and I'll let you guys know when haha. Oh, I forgot to say that I'm over here in SoCal. I'm over in La Mirada and Long Beach often and emeraldfoo, I got your PM and I sent one back and I don't know if you got it. I have your number and I'll txt ya tomorrow for more info! Thanks!

what a douche... if the car was driveable i would've chased his ass down hahaha.

luckily you got most of the necessary info like plate number and make and model of car. Hopefully CHP find this prick so we can all go **** on his front doorstep. (ok, maybe not really).

I did chase him, but not in a dangerous way. Just long enough to get the most important info. The idiot was driving erratically and cutting people off just to lose me. I didn't want another accident to happen so I backed off after I got the essentials.

I'll give you guys an update when I find this guy hopefully!
