[QUOTE=billydpowe;9537581]yep I meet with state farm Friday to get their estimate[/QUOTE

get a color coded one off the net, but no guarantee if its the original pearl white, another way to tell if it still has the original vin tag on the fender.

that is a very good idea, I'll check.... after spending $1460 renewing my LS with 200k, that $1918 I put in the bank sure feels good

I don't understand ???? You had to spend more to fix it, when you just had to pop the fender back out?
Then you say 1.9k in the bank ? I'm lost.

I think he meant the $1.4k money he put into his 200k maintenance

correct djamps, my 200k service made it drive like new again, (and it still does) and the ins $$ is a blessing... I may not "pop the fender out". when I go get into the car, I don't even notice it...

Okay got that fixed. Now for the title of this thread ! "wife got hit" It sounded like something bad happened to your wife. It should say, Car got hit, or something like that. Yeah I'm just being goofy.

I've got a couple of those small suction cup things that are made for shallow dents. A little heat and move those things around and I was surprised how well that actually worked. Not professional but it did the job.
