Default Somebody hit my car

Where I park my car at work, somebody backing in to the space next to my car, hit the rear clear lens and scratched the side of the fender and the bumper. Several people saw him and I called the police, he got a ticket for $130. and 4 points. My question is, can i just get the tail light clear lens by itself or is it a whole assembly on the tail light?

I think it is all one part #.

People suck......often.......

Some fool let the air outta my front tire in a parking structure yesterday. I think he took it personally when I had to crawl over the speed bump (at an angle - and still high-centered the poor car). He parked next to me, slammed his door and walked away without a word or evil look.

I came out to find the valve stem cap on the ground and all but 5 pounds of air let out. I feel bad for the guy. His life must really be bad if he has to do things like that.

Thankfully there was a gas station literally next door.

It's a whole assembly. http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/auto/j...cgry5=TAILLIGHT

Also try the "for sale" forums, too. Heck, might as well update to the AP2 assemblies while you're at it.

I'll have to count on Karma for that one.

In years past I would've gone looking for him and given him "what for". Nowadays I take a different approach. I don't go so far as to pray for him, since I cringe when people say that.......but I appreciate how much better I must feel inside compared to that guy. He clearly has issues.

That's a healthy attitude and is best to not let someone else that is "nothing" take control of your feelings/emotions. Okay to get upset momentarily, but best to let go.

Of course if I see them do something to the car (i.e. accidentally ding the door), I will address it swiftly but calmly.

I have an AP1 left rear tail light I can sell to you.

It is in good condition...with minor scruff marks that is only noticeable up close.
