Glad to see your fixing it up. I'm sure when its all done and freshly painted you will like it better than before. Good Luck

yea just a bad case of whip lash, thats actualy still bothering me, but o well i'll heal just fine, unfortunatly the car doesn't heal it's self, but thats my job i guess... yea it was bad but it sounds worse than it realy was, but looking at the car the way it is and being able to see how bent it actualy is i'm wondering if it wasn't actualy worse than i thought it was

te insurance company quoted it at 1700, but the shop that did the work last time is doing it this time aswell andthey did ALOT of work for about 3/4 the price, so i'm hoping that they give me the same deal maybe a little better since i'm a returning customer and i just gave them 4500$ 8 weeks ago or so, maybe they'll be generous and give me a break they're nice guys so maybei'll get lucky
