File a report anyway. You never know what might happen.

I wonder what the other vehicle looks like, that's a hard hit! File a report and keep your eyes peeled.

That is a real downer. The way our rigs are made though, just look for a vehicle that has twice as much damage on it and theres your culprit.

Get a rope.
And a big tall tree.............Sure sorry to see that. I'd keep my eyes open. Someone has some major damage to their rig with blue paint on it.

A real shame. I had a bad feeling when I saw the title of this thread and saw you had posted it.
Where did this happen? Any place that may have had a camera on the parking lot?

How many bodyshops are in your town? File a police report & then take a peek around the shops for awhile & mabey leave your #. If the owner has a nice rig and ins. they'll get it fixed then....BAM. Nail Em' Matching blue paint, police report= they pay for yours, theirs, & a hit-n-run. Worked for my bro. in law. Gotta love small towns.;)

That sucks. I've been starin' at that truck all month long in the calender. Ready to flip the page and this happens. Just out of curiosity what lift and tire size are on it?

Kali that blows big time...I loved the look of that truck, it's what I'm using as a template for my new one...
I'd like to think I'd be able to react calmly if I figured out who the culprit is...but I seriously doubt it....:mad:

People have no respect. It's ashame things like this happen.
This happened at work. There are cameras in the parking lot, and they point directly where I was parked, EXCEPT... (ya :rolleyes:) there has been construction the last couple of weeks so the camera was aimed towards the site :(
I did file a report, and the cop that came talked my ear off for about 2 hours. He loved the Jeep. Alas.. not much could be done. I've been walking around the parking lot taking notice of any body damage, but so far nothing stands out. I've also spoken to a few body shops, but my work has people from all over the state, its going to be lucky at best to nail the jerk that way.
Jeff--its got a 3" Rough Country lift and 33x12.50 BFG A/Ts on it now. For the calender pic its the same lift but with 31x10.50 BFG A/Ts.

If there is construction work going on nearby then I would be taking a close look at all the construction equipment.

Ive got a w/t fender that you can have for the cost of shipping...
Of course, that might be a lot since we are on opposite edges...

Prowl around the parking lot over the next few days. Maybe you'll get lucky.
I NOT condoning them running but people are panicking over just getting though the winter months and they probably saw their insurance rates sky rocketing.
I'm really sorry this happened. Maybe you'll catch them especially since it was at work and not some run of the mill parking lot.

OUCH!
Is this repairable?

Kali, don't you still have a set of fenders in your basement? If not, there is always the j20 and golden eagle if those fenders are still good.

Ya, PIG smith. I found a couple of doors from a grand waggie in the yard with elec. windows and mirrors. Looks like I'm upgrading the J10.
Kali, the fenders should be an easy fix but the bumper may be a PITA. Don't go doing an "eye for an eye" thing if you find out who did it. Of course, you could go out and do some really serious off roading and bang up the rest to match..................................:D:D:D:D:D: D

Kali,
that really stinks. Good luck finding the culprits. My truck had the right front fender tagged by a highway guard rail last year. Dag gone guard rail jumped right out in front of me!!! Dummy me was looking in my rear view trying to take a good look at the load in the bed as I was going around the "on ramp" to the interstate. The next thing I know the truck was scrapping the guard rail........
