As long as they cost the same the repair shop didn't have a problem with it. YAY!
The 2013 tail lights are more expensive

Yes, that is today's project. Along with getting a rental, guy at the body shop said around 2 weeks. Withdrawal is already setting in.

Ouch! Good news is with a '12 and the location, you should not have much paint fad to try to match. Still sucks though. Hope everything works out.

So I got the call. 5000 in damage. The rental car is a Altima 2.5S (literally 1/2 the car)... the irony isn't lost on me.

I feel your pain. The only part of my car that has not been damaged and repainted so far is the left side, my body guy joked that I should get someone to hit me on the left and then the whole car would have been painted.


It's still not funny.
