Your thread title sucks.

What info do you need? What to do? File a police report (hit & run) which will likely be useless. However if you know the place has cameras they may be inclined to let the police view them themselves if you pressure them.

Soon afterwards turn it into insurance if you can't pay for it yourself. They will send out an adjuster (usually in a couple days) to look at your car, write and estimate and issue a payment check. Then go to different bodyshops and have them write there estimate. Cross check everything with the estimate your insurance company gave you and select a shop to have the vehicle repaired.

Otherwise go to a dealership's part counter and order the parts you need yourself. Heads up that most places won't stock parts like a door shell so you will likely have to pre-pay and wait for the parts. When you go pick them up unbox and check them there for damage. Refuse any damaged parts. Then take them to a body shop or paint/install them yourself.

You will find that parts for these cars are still very expensive and short on supply. If you can swing it you may even consider dropping the money on a pair of after-market vented-styled fenders if you fancy them.
