update on accident.

[e30:)]

so should i take my car to the dealer and tell them all of the parts that i have put on it and they say what it would cost for them to do it?
i just wanna make sure i understand everthing... i doubt i could get 8k but something more resonable that 1400$

how many receipts do you have? paypal included... take all those to dealership.


My first offer was $1660 without anything.
Second offer was $2100 afre I sent it all personal receipts
Third offer was $4300 with independent adjuster.

That third step is the most important one, because it gets the ball rolling. Don't rush with estimates and advertisements yet. Wear them down. My struggle took 2 months. Then again, my car was really totaled, it wasn't drivable.

i have some on my email from the gc's shocks. i dont have alot of them for the aftermarket stuff:( most is replacement stuff. . window motors, motor work... stuff like that.

Update

just got off the phone with the adjuster... after looking at the recipts she came up with 4300$ wich is more than fixing it. So tommorow i drop it off to be fixed and getting a rental for the time being. its alot better than 1400$... now i can continue working on the same car instead of starting over.

Congrats! You need to change your sig now though.

good job man, way to stand up to those cock suckers. What is all that you ended up doing? Sent in all receipts?

[e30:)]

yeah i just sent in recipts and she called me and said she looked at the pictures and ran everything through nada. i think the 1400 they offered was just a "maybe this stupid kid will think 1400 is alot" or something. thanks for your help!

Damn, 4300 is ridiculous. I would have ran with that and bought something else... but it's your car man. Good work.

[namsayin]

damn yo, yo shoulda bought a new project and parted out your shizz!

[whiltebeitel]

I disagree! Good job on keeping your car on the road!

[e30:)]

they wouldnt have givin me that much, if its cheaper for them to fix it they fix it. plus i love my car -that its slow

[ThaiRacer]

U coulda got the check and told them u want to fix it at a shop u like. I was in this situation but i told them ill fix it at a certain shop and they wrote me a check.

[e30:)]

yeash i could have done that but i just wanted it fixed. i dont know any body shops so this way was easyer... now im driving a dodge caliber till oct 9th wahoo... not

[ThaiRacer]

well i did that because i know it didnt cost that much to fix, and any other body shop would of fix it cheaper leaving u with extra cash and getting more mods. lol

FWIW, Buyback price is based on the appraised value of the car.
