White is good.. find a color white that is just a bit different. Give the car something that pops but you have to know it's there to know or park next to an OEM white tc.

Just don't pick a color of white that costs two or three times as much applied... Insurance doesn't like those games.

Glad you are still feeling OK, David.

I spoke to Dave what seemed like just a little while after it happened. I am glad he is okay. Again, cars can be replaced, so I am glad to know that it was nothing that was too serious for him. Keep us posted dude, and I am again sorry that it happened.

they said that the repair is going to cost around 9-10 grand.... right now they are waiting for the insurance manager to approve it because it is above 5 grand. As of now, the bill is 7 grand not including the suspension problem because if they add it on, they would consider the car totaled so right now, after they fix my car, they will add on the suspension part so that the insurance will have to pay for it since the car is fixed, and they dont wanna claim it a totaled since all they have to pay out is an extra 2 grand to get the suspension fixed.

but they havent started fixing the car yet

Yeah 10 grand is a lot for a insurance company to pay out. Good Luck.

Sounds like the body shop knows how to get the work done......that is awsome that it can be fixed,I so hate it when they can a car due to cost of repair,they will probably for time and cost effectiveness just re-skin most of the car rather than pull the dents.

Yeah, I would request new door skins also, you don't want bondo if you can avoid it. Good luck David, I hope they can get it back to you in great condition.
