new paint time...

[AppState325]

this situation pisses me off simply b/c like Charlie said, we've told them about that tree multiple times. If they had removed it and not been negligent, never would have been a problem.

unless you have a picture of that tree dated before the storm showing that it was in a sad state of affairs before the storm, again its going to be hard to get them to pay if they are not wanting to take up the issue. Trees are parked and cars can move. If it was a concern before the storm why would you park it there during?

I feel bad for ya, its happened to me. I just know more or less how things play out because of it happening to me...

Good luck, maybe you could get you and several of your friends that have dents and just rent out a dent doctor for the day. Everyone pitches in and the guy spends several hours removing the best ones he can per car. Thats how I ended up getting mine fixed. We paid $500 for 8 hours of his time. 4 cars at 125 per. Much cheaper than per dent price.

§ 42‑42. Landlord to provide fit premises.

(a) The landlord shall:

(1) Comply with the current applicable building and housing codes, whether enacted before or after October 1, 1977, to the extent required by the operation of such codes; no new requirement is imposed by this subdivision (a)(1) if a structure is exempt from a current building code.

(2) Make all repairs and do whatever is necessary to put and keep the premises in a fit and habitable condition.

(3) Keep all common areas of the premises in safe condition.

(4) Maintain in good and safe working order and promptly repair all electrical, plumbing, sanitary, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, and other facilities and appliances supplied or required to be supplied by the landlord provided that notification of needed repairs is made to the landlord in writing by the tenant, except in emergency situations.

(5) Provide operable smoke detectors, either battery‑operated or electrical, having an Underwriters' Laboratories, Inc., listing or other equivalent national testing laboratory approval, and install the smoke detectors in accordance with either the standards of the National Fire Protection Association or the minimum protection designated in the manufacturer's instructions, which the landlord shall retain or provide as proof of compliance. The landlord shall replace or repair the smoke detectors within 15 days of receipt of notification if the landlord is notified of needed replacement or repairs in writing by the tenant. The landlord shall ensure that a smoke detector is operable and in good repair at the beginning of each tenancy. Unless the landlord and the tenant have a written agreement to the contrary, the landlord shall place new batteries in a battery‑operated smoke detector at the beginning of a tenancy and the tenant shall replace the batteries as needed during the tenancy. Failure of the tenant to replace the batteries as needed shall not be considered as negligence on the part of the tenant or the landlord.

(6) If the landlord is charging for the cost of providing water or sewer service pursuant to G.S. 42‑42.1 and has actual knowledge from either the supplying water system or other reliable source that water being supplied to tenants within the landlord's property exceeds a maximum contaminant level established pursuant to Article 10 of Chapter 130A of the General Statutes, provide notice that water being supplied exceeds a maximum contaminant level.

(b) The landlord is not released of his obligations under any part of this section by the tenant's explicit or implicit acceptance of the landlord's failure to provide premises complying with this section, whether done before the lease was made, when it was made, or after it was made, unless a governmental subdivision imposes an impediment to repair for a specific period of time not to exceed six months. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection, the landlord and tenant are not prohibited from making a subsequent written contract wherein the tenant agrees to perform specified work on the premises, provided that said contract is supported by adequate consideration other than the letting of the premises and is not made with the purpose or effect of evading the landlord's obligations under this Article. (1977, c. 770, s. 1; 1995, c. 111, s. 2; 1998‑212, s. 17.16(i); 2004‑143, s. 3.)

[Apex381]

I dont think I've ever seen those amber corners look so good on an e36. I think the blue is a little much though.

You realize that is a track only car and that it doesn't actually have headlights, right?

[BUDNUNTA]

Insurance most likely wont pay to fix your car. Theyll write you a check and total it.
Your better off trying to get the homeowners to pay outright for the damages. You could buy it back totalled and fix it though. Salvage title but if you dont plan on selling it any time soon it could be worth while.

Good luck.

lol its just REALLY dirty in that pic.

And yes the home owner that we rent from is gonna have to pay to fix it. I'm really considering just taking the $ and painting it either satin or flat olive drab since I won't be DD this car as soon as I can find a replacement. Its going to be strictly a track car.

that is damned hot. I would go with that.
