Wow, so sorry to hear about that! It does really make you ill thinking about that though, doesn't it? Good way of looking at it is you werent there getting out of your car and got crunched between it! 
I am very familiar with this as I was a victim of a hit-run accident that totaled my pride and joy Cadillac Eldorado several years back. To this day I cannot believe that person took off without even knowing if I was injured or not... They ran a red light and T-boned me sending me spinning through the intersection into the traffic light pole where I nearly flipped my Eldo. I would have surely lost my arm if I hadn't managed to pull it inside the open window at the last second! Never found the bum that did it either...

That is so rotten, guys! I can't hardly stand to think of someone hitting your door area that hard and not owning up to it, Kris!! That is some major inconvenience! I'm glad you weren't in it, of course (except that maybe they would have stopped).
And Harvey too? Now there's a sad thought - was there custom work where he was hit? Were you in the car - are you all right? I understand that California Cruisers (or whatever it's called) has closed up shop - I just hope he is fixable, but I do know what you mean about the car being "different".
I sat in shock and awe last week while I saw a stray shopping cart catch a breeze, go down a little hill, and slam into my right rear quarter panel...oh goody another new dent.
Kris, are you going to need more than a new door - how bad is it?

Oh Todd, if she gets one PLEASE get some pictures of her driving it, okay? (And you too, if she lets you drive it at all!) I love those suckers.
I'm just starting a tiny dent collection. So far I think I have 3 or 4, depending on whether it's in the sun or shade. When I get a real whonker, I'll get them all fixed at once.
Don't you get anything for pain and suffering, Kris?
