Last night some one went around destroying cars! They threw a huge stone at my car smashing in the fender and bumper and breaking my headlight! They also smashed a BMW and 2 Mercedes and broke all the windows on a Mercedes!!!

OH MY GOD!!!

I literally cringed when I looked at those photos!

I hope your insurance company is nice to you on this one. Good luck getting your RX fixed quickly.

And I agree with Mazdax605: May they be caught by someone who knows that there are far worse things then death...

Man... I'm sorry those fools think they can mess with other peoples cars.

This thing happens way to much, and those guys need to be caught soon.

Good luck with getting it fixed man.

That sounds really high considering the damage that was done.

As long as your insurance pays it though, I guess it doesn't matter. On the bright side, the camera you took hte pic's with must be really awesome, cause those are some of the best close up pics i've seen.

That sounds about right to me. The HID headlight assy is almost $1K ($976 or thereabouts I think) the bumper cover looks cracked, replace; the fender is not worth repair, replace; sidemarker, replace; hood and door blending along with painting the bumper cover and qtr panel; aim headlights; etc... adds up quickly.

I can't believe someone thought this was a fun thing to do. I hope that they get something prized of theirs trashed/destroyed/maimed.

At least if you had headlight film on that one side you can conveniently wipe it out now.

wow, cost me less than that to have dents repaired in the driver's side fender, door, and quarterpanel, replace the rear door, and have everything repainted, when some jackass rubbed the hell out of my car one night in the parking lot.

$3249.75

WOW...that's just too much, no wonder the insurance companies are getting on the auto companies about the expense of relatively small parts of the car. For the first time I'm very happy I did not get the HID lights...WOW, 3.25K...

Yikes, that really sucks. The repair cost seems way extreme....better get a couple more estimates.

It would be fun to return the favor. Bury them up to their necks in sand and hurl stones at them.

To me that estimate seems about right. Body work is expensive. Figure replace fender, replace bumper cover, replace side marker, replace headlight assembly. That's probably close to 2k in parts right there. Then install, body work, paint prep, and painting/blending is a lot of labor.

I have a repair bill on my FD from a previous owner fixing a small rock dent in the hood. 2k. It's all very time intensive.
