Last Sunday I was visiting my parents, and my dad came home, and pulled into the driveway...He wasn't going fast, but he tapped my bumper...Cut to yesterday, and I noticed that there were two small holes near the bottom of the rear bumper, and exactly as far apart as the bolts that hold a license plate...Dad has these " bullet bolts" on the front of his car, that acted like fangs on my bumper..

So I went to the body shop, and the estimate was $420 dollars
I am probably getting it done next week, and Dad might use his collision insurance to cover the cost, or just pay out of pocket...Can't get too mad at him, Dad has been pretty cool about the whole thing...I'm just going to park down the street next time I stop by...

 

MAKE DAD PAY!!
and a hand wash from him

 

dont use collision insurance on something so minor or your rates will rise.

 

He decided not to use his insurance, and just pay the bill..I was suprised the repair estimate was so high-It breaks down like this:

5.9 hours(units?) of labor @ $50/hr + $108 paint/materials...They have to take the bumper off, make the repairs, then paint and clearcoat...The body shop is one we have used before with my dad's car and some of my previous cars, and they do quality work..

I am going to have it worked on next Wednesday, and hopefully get it back on Thursday night, or Friday morning.

 

Go easy on him, that way when you screw up down the line you can remind him how nice you were.

 

HAHAHA


damn good idea.

 

Tell him to stop biting cars and go look for some crime.

 

I know an Asian guy that'll make the damage to your bumper disappear for $50

 

Cool! Send him over..
