So it's been a while since i've posted on here. I've been extremely busy with school and what not but now it's break! For the bad news...my car was broken into at applecup and someone decided it would be cool to destroy my in dash navigation unit and take all my stuff...I went through insurance and a new nav is being ordered but it's back ordered in japan and won't be here until mid-january! On top of that...i parked at southcenter mall and it looks like someone backed into the rear end of my car AND another person(i'm guessing...) backed into the front of my car...so I now have two good looking paint-missing smudges on the front and rear of my car...does anyone know of a good place to get the paint fixed??? Anything would help..thanks guys.

 

damn that is a bust. do you have a good alarm system? now might not be a terrible time to invest in one. two way paging systems provide a great piece of mind.

sorry to hear your about your troubles - hopefully the navi isnt too far out and your paint looks better then before after it's fixed.

 

What a shitty streak of luck. Hope you get it all taken care of.

 

dang, sorry to hear buddy.........

hope it gets all fixed and you come out on top......sounds to me like you can get the insurance to pay for a new aftermarket body kit...

 

Down the way where I was at, there's 2 paint shops that we used. Auburn Auto Clinic was where we went to for more of the economical fixes. As with any paint and body shop, you'll need to be physically there to get a quote and it shouldn't be an issue since I noticed you're in Auburn.

Look for Vicktor, the owner and tell him Bob @ Drift-Office sent ya,

Good Luck!

my car got broken into about 2 months ago and stole my navi too! I bought a 2 way paging alarm system (suggested by the folks on here) and it is totally worth the money and for the peace of mind! I bought a Clifford alarm system and it works great, if someone were to bump your car in the parking lot while you're in the mall or whatever, the alarm lets you know. Someone was messing with my car while I was at a bar in Belltown (about 4 blocks away) and it beeped me, so it has pretty good range too.

 

Yep, I have the same Clifford paging alarm and that's the only way to go if you want to protect your car.

 

that's a damn lie and you know it!

That's awesome.

 

want trunk monkey NOW.


as for the OP sorry to hear that bro.

 

Sorry to hear, dude. The problem with having front and rear bumper damage is that the insurance co. will most likely count that as 2 separate accidents. That means 2 comprehensive claims, if you have comp coverage, and 2 deductibles.

 

I just watched the whole series lol.

 

Sorry to hear what happened. Apple Cup is notorious for car breakins...

 

That sux. One reason why I don't leave my car parked anywhere too long. If I go out I take my commuter. I'm a fair weather Z driver.

 

, what a streak of bad luck

 

EXACTLY! That's why I want to know if anybody has any hookups at any shops or cheap good shops :/. My deductible for my nav and interior is 500 dollars...exterior they said would be another 350 I think? I'm willing to pay more than 350, I just don't want all these different marks on my insurance . Thanks for the sympathy guys. As far as the alarm system goes, I have a stock one..which evidently blows.

 

Pete's 03 SVT, a forum member here, is your hookup for that.

 

a TRUNK MONKEY

 

My God I hate Southcenter. After it's recent remodel I was telling people how it was a lot better, and then two days later someone got shot there. The South End can't be saved. Yes, I grew up there, and I knew when to leave.

 

Smart, very smart. Anywhere south of Bellevue should be nuked.
