See if you can get the security camera footage for the parking lot and the exit points nearest your vehicle.
The store might be able to cross reference to their cashier cameras and find out the name of the person making the transaction, based on who went through their door dressed similarly, within the timeframe of how long it takes the average person to walk to the location of the offending vehicle.

Then you can use that information to contact your insurance and the local authorities to report a hit-n-run...

You'll have a name. If they paid by check, you'll have an address...if not you might get lucky on the parking lot, a vehicle description and license plate.

That said, you could probably contact the local authorities, the store, and your insurance and let them go after it. Tell them you will press charges for damages. You could even take them through civil court for extra damages relating to your deductible, depreciation and an increase in your insurance premium, as well as the stress of having to deal with it...
