Your comprehensive deductible and your collision deductible may not be the same ($1000). Comprehensive rates, which covers vandalism, are based on the claims rate in your geography. Filing a claim will not count against your record. In my case the comprehensive rates are so low that I carry 0 deductible comp and 250 deductible collision. I obviously do not live or work in San Fran. My point is for you to check with your insurance company to see what your comprehensive deductible really is. It may be less than 1000.

They won't come out to your house, but they will give you a reference number, after taking some information, which you would then give to the insurance company. Most police departments have a special number for situations like this. It is all done over the phone.
Someone broke the back window out of our Honda Odyssey, while we were in a public parking lot. We went to dinner downtown with friends and when we came back, we found the damage. Our insurance company asked if we filed a police report, but since they were my first call, we hadn't. Since we have been with them for over 20 years, they told us not to worry about it, and they scheduled the back window to be replaced.
Having said that, if there is a next time, the police will be my first call.

Well its been a while, but the repairs are apparently almost complete and I can pick my car up tomorrow afternoon! Total was around $4,600 bucks!!
They had to completely replace the roof, as when trying to repair one dent the other dents would buckle more and the metal was stretched at that point...
Now does anyone know any do's and don'ts when getting this back, I plan on giving the car a huge once over while there before I leave. I am hoping they don't frown upon that...

The yellow cone has a number on it. I think its there for ID because all the other cars had one with different numbers.
