    Had the exact same thing happen to me in a parking garage in Baltimore on my old Chevy Equinox. I didn't notice it at first due to the way I got into the vehicle. Was driving down the highway and told my wife there is an "odd wind noise" that wasn't present before. Went to a store close to home, walked out, and couldn't believe I missed it. I was so pissed. Insurance covered it, but still pissed me off that someone would be such a douche and not leave a note.

    Would definitely upgrade to a plate bumper after this.

    That sucks. On the brighter side, get yourself a metal bumper now. Other car will definitely get damage if this happen again :)

    Time to use that gopro mount with a large sd card for long time recording.

    Fender is messed up. Head light has a crack in it. And the hood has a wave in it. A few of the mounting tabs from the grill snapped off. They hit hard enough to move the front of the truck about 18". I had a slight taco lean before but now it's almost a 2" difference.

    That 5 hour window will probably make it hard to pinpoint when it happened, and by whom, especially if that parking garage is busy.
