Check your paint/bumpers if painted very carefully from various angles. You'll find they are probably flexed beyond what the paint can manage, so might now have dozens of small cracks in it = over the next 1-6 months all the paint will flake away. Seen it happen loads, especially on older cars where the paint is already hardened/been repainted in the past.
Hire car I had the other day got hit in a similar way, literally looking out the window and just saw someone dint right into it, then slowly pull forward and just drive off. Now if it was an owned car would have reported it, however because its a hire, its my fault and my cost all the way until proven otherwise, and even then, will be costs lumped on me. Checked it closely and damage was super mild. But still, fed up with the dishonesty of people, could have potentially (and still might get a bill from hire co) a lot of cost put to me for someone elses mistake, over and over again. Le Sigh.

On that Note. Someone reversed into my car while leaving their parking the other night. What are The odds of me standing in the window with my phone at the same time? I was shocked when they reversed about 2 meters and just straight into my car w/o hitting the brakes. I didident get The actual crash but when i saw i took out my camera and one can still here a sound from when the cars seperate as they pull away.
Dident even brother to check for damages and were in a hurry to get away :/ the moral of ppl these days..
Damages to my car look pretty limited. But a few scratches etc plus i also got to get it checked out properly i guess as it wasent just a nudge.
Think i need to repaint the front spoiler section. Is it possible to match a 30 year old antracit / Grey / black a 100%? If not or likely Will be a difference its likely not worth trying to get it painted unless they do the whole car..
