yeah i got rear ended two weeks ago, and i slammed right into a school bus. i took it to Backyard Collisons and theyre taking care of me. i gotta pay the deductible but Joe said by the time the car is done, the other insurance will waive the deductible. id go through your insurance and fight for the deductible back. if you want your car fixed the right way.

I would say 3k.. just look at the price of gas. I took my family to the mall in the GS today.. we have a kid carter but, I love to drive the GS4... I parked as far away from everyone as I could... I parked next to a light pole.. and had the thought........ hmmm this freaken pole will fall on my car before I get doored..

All is good.. came out and no one was parked next to it.. SWEETTTT..

I do not have door ding one on my 98...

while at home I have an eye on her... or him..

Sorry to hear bout' that Chris. Try M.O.B. work. They're in the 714. They did my friends showcar. Damn good work. I would get a couple estimates from reliable shops and go through her insurance. I would hit up M.O.B or whatever shop after the estimates and see if they can work out a deal with you like repainting the whole car and body work for about the same price as the other estimates. It works better if you know someone who goes to that body shop though.
