cheers guys, incidentally, looking at the filler cap notch where you see my brother's arm in the reflection the dent went all the way to the bumper where his hand was kind of aiming in the reflection in the first photo!
this happened on a street where I park to do my first 2 bags, the note had no contact details, but the van's company name and reg details..
"I saw a white 'sanber limited' transit van **03 *** hit your car about mid day 1/10/07"
thats all it said, so i've wrote to the company basically explaining that i found the note, and could they enquire who was working in the area with that van at that time, i've not involved the cops or insurance, I really dont think its worth it
i've pushed the dent out, but its left a couple of light creases and will work on removing his or her paint shortly with the help of soapy water, t-cut and cloths and lots of gentle rubbing, any suggestions on what else might get the paint off without damaging my own paint??
ya never know, the company might be kind enough to pay for a proper repair, and pigs might fly! (and it might actually be a UFO
)
