Shit 
Like said at least it was only the bumper that took the hit.
Just keep in mind what comes around goes around for wankers like this!

Is it a car park you use often? If so keep an eye out for any damaged cars with blue paint on them. If the person who did it is stupid enough to drive away they're stupid enough to return to the scene of the crime.

Irmy rear splitters?
*vulture*
FWIW I had a similiar (lower speed) impact like that on my front bumper, it broke the bracket and needed a new bumper, no note left etc - so I went ahead and claimed from insurance and paid the extras for a GSI one.
No claims protected? Low excess? Claim for it and get it repaired properly, using proper parts, in a proper bodyshop - it deserves it tbh.

i cant imagine how someone could just drive off from that, id be writing a note out straight away, a sad reflection of the society that we live in unfortunately.
hope it gets fixed quickly and its not too costly.

least one possitive way to look at it is there's no damage to the rear quater,

ppl over here in ireland have a habit of throwin the door open regardless fo the car next to them, my dads car has a huge dent on the middle of the door on his focus, mum has seval on her millenium edition puma, and i have 1 or 2, saw it happen and got them back when they had walked away as they just walked off.
like one fo the lads above said, keep an eye out for anything damaged driving around your way mate, tis a shame, cos u got a gorgeous astra coupe there!! badgers of doncaster, never did like em at all, here is 1 reason why

Like most have said at least its only a bumper and no work needed to rear arch or wheels. Sod's law for it to happen whilst trying to sell it too.
