    Need serious help! Burbank - CA

    Hi everyone,

    I became a member here for a specific reason. My girlfriend was in a hit and run accident yesterday, which near totaled her car. The gentleman who hit her had a BMW, brand new, no plates. He took off, and is getting away any and all responsibility for this.

    I don't know if there are any car service technicians or mechanics that read this forum, but I would honestly be in your debt if you could help us out. If a gentleman comes in with a brand new BMW (Black / Dark Blue) with damage to the front driver side, please reach out to me. The car had paper plates, fresh from the dealer.

    This is likely a wild shot in the dark, but we're trying anything we can to bring this irresponsible person to justice. Because she has only liability insurance, we incur the total cost of this person's recklessness on our own. I appreciate your time to at least read and be aware of it in advance.

    best to all.

    Contact the BMW dealers in your area to see which dealers have sold a similar car.

    California is retarded in a way as where new cars don't require any sort of identification as long as a registration is displayed on the front windshield.

    was this reported to the police? I doubt dealers will release any info about new car sales for you.
    Did you guys narrow it down to at least what car it was (3,4,5,6,7 etc series?)

    Also, I doubt the dbag in the other car was there long enough for OPs gf to write down any numbers from a paper plates, otherwise he wouldn't be posting here
