can't see the pix at work...
BUT a claybar and rubbing compound will take off any paint that's just on the clear coat... BTDT
I say just leave it, keep the crooked blinker lenses on the front and toss a bunch of NOS and VTECH stickers all over the car and complete the look :-P
Oh, and duct tape on a folgers coffee can to the exhaust tip
Sorry though buddy, that's a real PITA. If you can get the camera footage, give it a try, but unless you have proof (i.e. the cameras caught him hitting you) you're gonna have a hard time proving it. There are a lot of white cars in the world, and unless his car has damage now, it'll be your word against his.

my sister lives out there and says the same thing...
tho, when they lived in the States, my mom was a pretty good driver; while dad... that's another story!
Sometime we see a trend and our mind tries to generalize a pattern, then out comes those cases that completely buck the trend!

Saw a toyota pull something like that last month...
I was on the outer loop at the 95/395 merge, a Toyota FJ does the slow merge into a girl driving an Accord. Just painfully keeps coming over and she has nowhere to go.
He buffed the side of her car with his tire. Definite contact, pressed into her car at least three times. The FJ kept driving after she honked and pulled over on the shoulder. I followed him and proceeded to flash, honk, pull up beside him, point him over. He thought I was a stalker, the moron.
Sometimes, nothing beats 911. The state troopers near the Wilson Bridge found him. Hard to believe he would come over and keep hitting someone, then drive away.
