    Was involved in hit and run #2 of the year. Anyone know of any good body shops in area that work on tacomas? I want to get it done right. In the LA county area.

    Oof that's a rough hit and run. I had one that happened to my 19 within a few months. First thing I bought afterward was a dash cam. Good luck.

    Dang @KevC , a parking lot hit and run like that is pretty bad. I hope it gets fixed right for you.

    Yup, dash cam for the win!

    People suck. One more reason I firmly believe that California is a great place TO VISIT. Also on team dashcam. Hopefully doesn’t cost you too much OP
