The real I got my car! thread
So, yesterday I was involved in an unfortunate accident when a car clipped the front right fender of my car. Official estimate is 1600, the fender only is 150 for the new one (should be here tomorrow). Its just the labor and paint that costs so much, we are not using insurance as it will bring our rates up as a whole. Btw im just 16 so its really high as it is, and the accident wasnt my fault.
I was EXTREMEMLY pissed off yesterday, so I never brought up anything about the actual car, just the accident. THE CAR IS AMAZING. I was worried the v6 wouldnt have enough power, but it DEFINETLY does. The engine sounds crisp, the halos are awesome, and even the cloth seats are perfect. I dont have any complaints so far other then the accident, but hey its a new car and they will happen. Also in the other post i was just using a v8 as an example to where the damage was, not my car. Just clearing that up. Thanks to everyone that helped! I really appreciate it. Sadly I cant buy my extended rally stripes until I pay off the fender. All of its coming out of my pocket. anyways... her she is! name suggestions? |

If it is not your fault why are you paying for it???
And $1600 is way high on that repair. Did you get more than 1 quote??

Yeah bro it sucks that someone clipped you like that. Welcome to the driving world young man . Every thing happens for a reason, and you can't put a price on wisdom. You are going to have a great car there, should get a lot of attention from the ladies. Expect to here the words "when do I get to drive it" quite offten.

Surely your insurance will cover some of this, even if you have a $1000 deductible. I'd think this would go under comprehensive coverage, if nothing else?
