its pearl orange yes...i went #1 collision..they said $2200 to fix...

im thinking closer to $2600 as the engine cover underneath falls down occasionally on a slight bump and scrapes ground as screw holes were ripped through...and wheel cover on passneger front wheel is shredded...popped out and was rubbing tire and i didnt realise

ICBC will not cover it unless its a collision as they said they cannot find any traces of cat hair or blood...cos i washed my car when i got home at midnight that night as i didnt want any animal bits stinkin up my garage...so id end up paying back icbc $4k over 3 years with raised premiums if i go through them

and heres a full pic
