Just picked up my vehicle from Vehicle Processing... There's some minor damage on the Z, and I didn't accept the settlement on the spot. Are there any good paint/body shops around where I can get it fixed? I have to get some estimates done.

Thanks.

 

Take your car to GX Auto.

 

Take the Z down to GX Auto just as Eazy stated... Talk to Mike, he's the owner. Your best bet hands down. I have attached the url link to the shop. Hope all works out well on your end.

Cool, thanks guys... I'll check them out.

 

yea, mike at GX auto will help you out.

 

Cool. You guys are awesome... thanks...

 

OP, we all drink Corona. j.k... By the way, what shipping company did you use to ship your car?

 

If he cant help, Joel from JL Auto Body is also awesome

 

Yea, Mike at GX took care of my Z when it arrived from the Mainland. Alot of body damage was done. Got the estimates from Mike, the shipper paid the check. Took the Z back to mike and he only did what was actually necessary, pocketed a couple of hundred and we did other things that I wanted done

 

lol.

The car came through Matson.

 

Ok, just got back from GX Auto... Mike was pretty cool. Estimated repairs are running $1400. Probably gonna check the other shop just to get a 2nd estimate, before I submit my claim.

Glad I didn't take the $375 settlement...

 

Get that **** done right and dont let the shipper rape you!!

 

I wouldn't let Matson pay me $375 to see my nuts much less offer me that lowball of a price to fix the repairs on my Z. Hope everything works out well for you OP...

 

Yeah, a lowball like that seemed like a slap in the face, but I know not to take it personally... lol.

 

WTF!! I filed the claim with American Auto Logistics... for almost $1400 dollars to fix the Z. They sent me a counter-offer of $889.98... They claim that there was pre-existing damage to the bumper cover at the time of turn in...

Negative... The car has paint protection film applied... If I have the film removed the finish is the same as if I had just bought the car... But they say what was written on the form was existing chips, cracks and scratches....

They told me I can file through JAG, so guess where I'm going on Tuesday? I'm tired of all the BS I get when dealing with the Z...

 

doesn't sound like the Z is causing the problem bro....more like your sources and BS everyone else is giving you.

Good luck with the new claim

 

so what do you guys recommend for shipping the Z over? Matson is a big no no for me... i'll be there December!

 

unless you're payin outa pocket.... most likely the military branch that you're in will choose the company for you.....

 

Pasha or Horizon. They ship in a container so the ride isn't exposed to the elements, your looking at $1200-$1300 and two weeks (just got a new car shipped from Cali myself). Nice glasses.
