Well the adjuster didnt even really look at it apparently and was pretty nice but I still have to pay a 100$ deductible. However one of the mechanics who I know very well and is a friend of the family said that my exhaust should be moved because the heat caused the driveshaft to become brittle......how the hell do I move my exhaust lol....

i wouldn't worry bout that. it doesn't get that hot when your car is moving. which is 97% of the time when your engine is running.
