Yeah, people seem to somehow miss this thing. I was sitting in mine at a stop sign when a lady pulled up next to me, and then turned right into my car as she moved forward to see around a bush (like I had just done). I could almost have understood if she was in a truck or SUV... not the Prius she was driving. Of course she had no insurance, or license. At least you got paid both times your car got hit. It is frustrating as hell though.

You guys know that on other car forums there are "curse" threads also? Seen it on GCtuner, tc club, etc. Shit just happens doesn't matter what you drive. Sucks for OP though. Hope you get that all fixed up and squared away!

It sucks, but I feel your pain. My car has been hit 3 times, once in the bumper like yours, once in the passenger door, and once above the rear wheel.

Get it done at a shop.

Also, get a bumper badger or something similar. When I had my old BMW or SRT-4 parallel parked in Philly it was frequently abused by assholes doing the back and forth bump-it-till-you-find-it. I got a cheap as hell bumper badger that I now have in my FRS, but there are better ones that really provide some protection and just sit in the trunk taking up almost no room when you're not using them.

If I had a front plate mount I'd also get some of the giant oversized rubber bumpers, as well.
