Some people are pure scum.

Mistakes are one thing, but leaving and not leaving a note...

Sorry to hear that 
Some ppl just dont have common courtesy, someone did that to my old car a few years ago.
BTW if there is no paint damage then you may be able to get the dent 'knocked' back up. Look around for \"Paintless Dent removal\", they are plenty in Sydney and the wil be cheaper than your $500 excess.

If you were in a parking lot, ask the owners for a copy of the security tape of the time you think the accident happened.
You might just find out the rego number of the moron who did this and then you can pay them a little visit..............

I know how you feel, having had something similar happen to my Outback recently (Thank god it wasn't my MX-5).
Hope you are able to track down the culprit.
Do you park in the same spot most times, if so do you see the same cars around you. Is it would looking to see if you can spot a car with some of your paint on it.....or as Beeny said see if there is security camera footage available?

Join the club. Had this happen to me a while back on my front bumper. Got a nice scrape across the front.
Incidentally, I left the damage for ages because I wasn't going to go through insurance for ages. Lo and behold, I rear ended someone last week, so at least I didn't waste ~$400 on a respray only to shell out another $1200 for the bloody insurance excess...

Was too busy to cry. Had a shitload of work to do that day, which probably contributed to my impatience, which could have had something very possibly to do with the accident.
I love being vague.
Meanwhile, the Just Car assessor came out today to look at the car. Luckily enough, he chose Hume as the repairer because the other place I went to didn't quote damages on the lights where the plastic brackets that hold the lights to the frame were cracked/broken. It's off to Hume I go. Although it's going to be interesting getting to work after dropping the car off.
