Well it looks like a need a new bumper and rear right door skin. estimate is around $1500-$2000. I've had the car for maybe a week and a half. Love it!

It just snowed so my car is filthy.

well in not used to a car with a large rear end. from the look of the car from the back, the rear is wider then the front. so i will pulling into a tight space infront of a bestbuy and i clipped an old cherokees bumper, his bumber was made of metal, my plastic car took the blunt of it. his has a small mark on it, lol.

i'm claiming it as no fault and saying someone hit me. rather just pay the deductable.

yea my dad is a car nut, 05' viper, 71' cuda, 04' rumblebee, 04' mustang gt, 51' chevy deluxe. he also is looking to get the new challenger when it comes out.

Well the insurance agent came to inspect my car today. They want to give me a new bumper and repair the door. I talked to the guy who is going to do the work and says he would rather replace the door b/c it's dented in and the door will be weak and possibly paint could flake off it later on. The estimate was for $2134 from the insurance company. I’m going to fight for a new door skin. I don't want it done half assed, I want the work done the right way.

Probably a good idea to do this all the honest way, and stay clean with the insurance company in all aspects. Not preaching, but in general, in life, it's usually best to do things the right and honest way.

But if you are planning to execute and be a party to insurance fraud, it's probably best not to discuss on a public forum. ;-)

Sorry about the accident, and good luck though.
