Glad you're ok. I would have flipped out too....I've had my car less than a week now and I pity the fool who gets "distracted" and runs into me.

just some advise..
i know the body shop told you two weeks.
dont expect it back in 2 weeks, give it a month.
since its so new there will be problems with finding the right parts/ time to wait until pieces come in.
or they will misquote how much damages were.
please, when they say its ready make sure you check every single detail and spacing between bumpers and fenders etc.
make sure they get it perfect. PERFECT. before you sign anything.
good luck!

you might as well get rid of that car it is never going to be right again. I promise you the paint will look like **** and the body panel and headlights will never line up properly agian. I know this because I have wrecked a few dozen cars in my day, lol.
