Read your insurance policy carefully! My policy SPECIFICALLY STATES "...no coverage in case of incident OF ANY KIND with kangaroos" [highlites added]. And I live in Oregon.

i hate that you can't trust ANY shop. I always end up w/ a 'new guy' or whatever working on my cars, and they never get things right. I need to learn to paint because I hate relying on people for major work like that.

I'm not trying to be smart a** but does that show up on a Car Fax report if you go thru your insurance? If so, it's time for the boat people to be forking over sum cash.

It won't show up on car fax due to no police report.Also computer system had zero info on the 08xb had to use 06xb for bodyshop repair times. I walked away from the whole deal with 1750.00 cash in my pocket and all damaged parts replaced. Body shop replaced hood and front bumper all body lines look perfect and paint match is also perfect. My problem with body shop was poor buffing put swril marks and scratches in paint. I had to hand buff with compond from are detail dept to make look better. Ins. company cut me a check for $925.00 for deminished value of car also another $125.00 for rental car that we never used and also they paid full retail on parts that I only paid employee price on so all in all Car now looks very good and I got an extra $1750.00 cash. The whole deal sucked all in all but I can't gripe too much.
