Hit & Run

Apparently your fears were warranted.

Wow....I had forgotten about that.

It's a damn good thing I lowered my deductible and made sure all my coverages were good.

Name of shop? Don't worry the car will come back with european-spec panel gap Detroit can't even conceive of (their ruler doesn't go below 1/4") and the badge mysteriously changed from Ford to Mercedes. And the new paint won't come off with a finger nail.

I cracked up the front right corner of my GT (rotated into a concrete bridge abutment) and after the Chevy dealership (Koons tysons) bodyshop was done with it it looked better than new. Now when I look at the EB side by side, I just wanna cry.

I was thinking that they'd probably get the trunk on straighter, the rear glass in more centered. And I'd definitely assume the paint job will be of higher quality than from the factory. That doesn't necessarily mean the paint will match, including the level of orange-peel, but it will be higher quality.

More has been done. Seems like they're moving right along.

Wow that’s a lot of work for that small area of damage. What was the estimate of this repair?

I'm betting, in the end, you will be very happy.

I realize 99% of people care nothing for Freedom and Liberty. Those are notions loooooong dead in this country.

Anyways, a camera probably wouldn't have helped in this situation.

Can you really preach freedom and liberty in one breath and shit on illegals in the next? That's rich.

Right? As if bad driving is mutually exclusive to foreigners. What a dumb ass statement.

Had that cop stopped, they'd have more paperwork to do that day. Gotta weigh both sides here, actually do your job or look the other way and avoid any extra work today?

The way cops are getting pissed on these days, can't blame them for saying F' it.

I would say that the majority of cops are not getting pissed on and are highly respected by their communities.

Here's how things have progressed;

Then I e-mailed the shop owner back about seam-sealant/NVH/anti-corrosive coating where the metal was worked from behind/inside, and he sent me these;

Supposed to be the best in the area. They do work on the serious exotics too, it's their specialty.

It looks to be coming along nicely. When do they estimate it will be complete?

July 6th. Though I'm starting to think they tell you a date, and then have it ready earlier. I'd be shocked if it took another 11 days to get the car back, but I'm not going to rush them. If it does, that's fine.

I'm not PC. Never have been, never will be.

That’s what’s up! Expensive repair. How much was your insurance deductible ?
