Anyone else know it was a female driving before opening the thread? Good luck man and go with a top notch bodyshop.

i guess that make sense. its possible that the appraisal is sometimes worth more than what shops estimate.


female drivers / old drivers are dangers on the road. oh and feminine male drivers.

ill be getting the estimates done on monday guys. still wondering what I want to do in terms of replacement bumper. chargespeed with the side vents covered up, or stock bumper with a diffuser...

im sorry but im not a fan of how the side vents are on the chargespeed rear.

Do you have full tort insurance? Have you talked to a lawyer yet? What if your back pain never goes away, or, gawd forbid, gets worse over the next 6 years? I've seen it dozens of times -- crash, doctor, another doctor, insurance company goes bankrupt or cancels policy, victim is left holding the bag. Protect yourself.

I have to double check to see what my policy is. I have talked to a lawyer but my dad persuaded me to hold off. I will definitely contact one soon though.

My back does not seem to be in too much pain. Just soreness and such. Ex ray results have yet to come in.

Independent appraiser should be here in an hour or two. I'm anxious to see their quote vs. the auto body's.

HAH! that is why i am going to school for collision repair. there was like 1k in parts needed to fix that car. so the painter made 8k (more than it costs to paint a whole car generally) in less than 1hour. and no one has a choice on price. it was quoted at one price but ended up being 4k more so insurance just pays. crazy. in a year i'll be painting cars for insanely cheap pricing.

btw i bought my z because someone in a z hit my truck and barley dented the bedside, i got 5k cash and put it on the down payment of my new z. guy that hit me had to sell his. advice dont drift into a truck.
