Yeah it's not that bad, and I do have insurance. What I am saying though is after filing the claim, and they finding me at fault for the accident, my insurance rate is going tong up, and over the span of the three years the accident is on my record, I will end up paying more through the increased insurance than the quo yes I have gotten got the cost of repair. Doesn't really matter at this point...the goal is to get the GS back in awesome condition.

Yeah, I was debating whether or not to file a claim, but I ended up doing it. I just have to live with it now.
I will be demanding a new right headlamp assembly; so far, all of the bodyshops said they would replace the right headlamp only if they removed it from the car, and saw that it needed replacing, because looking at the headlamp itself, there does not appear to be any cracks or scratches. Well, now there is lots of moisture forming on the inside of the headlamp enclosure. Additionally, the right headlamp doesn't even come on anymore! Now, the bodyshop could contest that the light not coming on is an electrical issue an is not necessarily a result of the collision, but one can reasonably deduce that a collision caused the light to no longer function. Well, I plan on taking her in after the New Years, so until then, I'm just enjoying the ride.
