Default I was hit!

I was just hit by a lady when she decided to back her truck into the nose of my S. We were sitting in line at the Chevron at Miramar Pkwy and SW 148th (off of 75) when she decided to backup and I couldn't even dump the clutch fast enough to get out of the way. It dented the hood, stripped the paint off of the nose, and looks like it pushed the drivers side headlight back. (I'll post pictures later). Where do you guys recommend I take it, or if some on the board can fix the headlight and maybe get the nose to be back in line I would go for that. I am going to be in Texas next week so I would like to have it fixed while I am gone. If I can get the nose in line, and the headlight looking normal I think I might get a cf hood. Thanks for the help guys and gals!

Thanks for the advise....
The lady didn't do much except beg for me not to file a report. I will call Sunshine Collission and see if I can get her in to be fixed

After a lady ran a stop sign and hit my car in March, I had my car fixed there too. I'm very pleased with their work.

I hope that you didn't agree to that!

Of course I didnt agree to that...the report was filed by a couple of nice Miramar police officers. I think I am going to take the front bumper off this morning and see if I can get it to sit like it should, just in case I can't get it into a bodyshop this week.
