Default Brand NEW xB scratched

Like I had mentioned before we just bought two xB's for loaner cars, and the cars have literally less than 100 miles on them. During the storm, a power line fell on one of the cars and scratched it all up. Luckily the car is getting a custom paint job anyway, but this just creates more work.

That sucks....

You could cash out the insurance claim and use that money towards your custom paint. ..

I haven't heard of many businesses going with paint, most go with vinyl... I look forward to seeing it sometime..

good luck with it

xB's are very prone to be sratched
