hey sparkyz i live in norcal, manteca to be exact. you from cali?

 

As a matter of fact i got a hole in one of the seats, was driving one day when i went to throw my cigarette and the son of a bitch flew back in! I didnt know how much it would cost to fix the cloth since its got the mustang lettering in the seats.

 

And also,

Volcom....holy sh*t lol. I feel so bad for u, now that would definately make me cry. Hope it gets fixed soon its a really nice lookin stang.

 

if its on the actual lower half of the bumper just go out and buy a new one. i got my GT bumper and front one for 300 bucks. but thats only if your bottom half of the bumper took most of the beating.

 

HURRICANE,

You won't get ticketed now for a couple of day old accident. I'm a retired officer and accidents that are this minor (not minor to you, but in the scheme of things minor) don't even require an accident report. Now, as far as the insurance company; that's a different deal.

If you quit smoking, you would probably save enough money in a year to pay for the damage (just teasing, but add up what that habit costs in a month).

 

I had minor rear bumper damage and minor quarter panel damage on my stang. right where the bumper and the quarter meet. Definitely don't take it Ford because they will probably **** rape you! If it's only your quarter panel, my best guess would be $1000. Shouldn't be more especially if it's minor damages. My bumper and my quarter were $1200 and they only had to repaint the bumper and pull out a small dent in the quarter and repaint that. I'd say just pay ur deductible but then ur insurance will go up so I wouldn't even tell me insurance company if I were you, but thats just me. Hope I helped you out

 

djl0657, thats nice to hear that they dont chase you for such a small accident lol ive been worrying about that so its cool to hear i shouldnt be. Unfortunately the damage didnt hit the bumper its were the bumper and quarter meet but its only on the quarter panel. I was hoping it was the bumper cuz then i could get a GT bumper for alittle less the a new v6 bumper. Also i already know im not gonna turn it into insurance because i have a high enough insurance as it is so its just going to come out of my pocket to fix. Well i will pry give an update on this in a couple of days and let you guys know for referance how much it will cost and thanks for the support guys.

 

Well i went and got off of my restrictions for my license and then headed over to the ford dealer today. Took about half an hour (they said 15mns) for me to get an estimate of the damage. They gave a quote for $660. Something like $50 hr for 2 different types of work and they $30 hr for the painter. Total 12hrs. They said an extra $60 to replace the rocker stripes because they have to paint the entire piece including the bottom where the stripe is. I checked out baltimore street mods and can get a pair of new stripes for like $30 so i might do that. Not done getting estimates but it seems like $660 is a tad bit high.

 

$660 will probably be one of the lower estimates you find.

 

Since i know im trading in after this winter i decided not to fix it. Its not bad after i went back and looked at it and the dealer told me the vehicle is still in the excellent condition category so im just going to live with it.
