Idiot Reversed in my G82

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Was driving tonight and saw a guy reversing his toyota pickup so i stopped and honked my horn, he stopped reversing and went forward then started reversing again and i held on my horn, he just kept backing up until he backed up into my car. Idk how he didnt hear or see my car when i was literally holding down on the horn.

Any suggestions on fixing that small paint scratch?

Wow I was having a hard time finding that paint scratch and paint damage until I realized it was your headlight.
That’ll be costly but hopefully won’t be too long of a wait.

Retail replacement cost is ~$7,000, so definitely an insurance claim (hopefully you exchanged info with the pickup truck driver).

I had this exact same thing happen to me at a stop light. Lady decided she wanted to be in a different lane so she tried to back through me. I honked like a madman.

Fought their insurance for a year because they tried to assign blame to me.

Sorry to hear, but you're somewhat lucky it's localized to just the headlight. A nearly identical thing happened to me in a parking lot a few years back. I leaned on the horn and this moron just kept on backing up into my right quarter panel/bumper. Either they're listening to music too loudly or are oblivious, but my damage was a lot more extensive (body-wise, at least). Hopefully they other party takes responsibility and has insurance.

Ugh… painful to see this.

You'd think the other driver would see the bright yellow vehicle in his rear view.

I'm going through the same nightmare. Two other vehicles collided violently in the intersection I was in wating for my turn and one of the other car ran into the front of my M4 with only 1300 miles.
