The bad news: Well after a few calls with the insurance company I have found out i'm gonna get stuck paying for any repair up to my deductible. Then i can sue the uninsured motorist if I would like to get my money back. The insurance adjuster just passes the buck on it as being the state of Michigans fault.
The good news is I got all the scratches and marks rubbed out of the paint with the exception of 3 spots with the paint scraped off. Also there is no damage underneath, all the Styrofoam is in tact. It didnt even break the tabs on the bottom of the bumper.
I don't have any pics now i'll have to get one tomorrow. Basically all that's left is the 3 black marks in the first pic.

Justin I tried to add update the title but it didn't work and i didn't want to start a new thread about it
Mike If gas was cheaper Id be on my way.lol
Blackrain That sucks that your dad had to go through that. Maybe we should get a law passed that if you get caught with no insurance they take your car and auction it off and use the money to pay off the people these idiots wreck.

I had someone in a green car scrape my front bumper by the left fog light recently, made me so mad because they left without even leaving a way of contact. I didn't post pictures, but I did clean it the best I could with rubbing compound and cleaner wax, I did the best I could :/

Wow Lou, glad you and your Monte are OK. It's lucky nothing worse happened.
I know I am super cautious when I'm driving. I'm always looking behind me for anyone coming up fast. Somehow I have managed to park in Walmart parking lots for the past 2 years and escape any dents and scrapes. I even have my own little spot I always park in at the very end of the lot lol. I know if someone hit me due to not paying attention or something stupid like that, they'd better have life insurance too.
I cannot imagine the horrible feeling you must have felt when you walked behind your car and saw the damage for the first time
