oh i hear ya John insurance is nut and they don't cover special things you are very lucky that that was the only damage and a bra all the time isn't too bad considering that you don't drive it that much anymore so you wont get too much of the rub affect on the paint that the bras usually do.

i was just saying that if i owned an insurance company i would cover that stuff cause it is what makes a vehicle custom however that would also have limitations such as wheels most aftermarket wheels are not as strong as the factory wheels so those would not be covered aalso because of the availability of them also they change them all the time and very rarely unless the wheel is extremely popular can you ever get another one later on down the road

ok enough of the long windedness from me back to the topic of conversation

I think we both go lucky. My damage I can fix. Johns can be covered easy.

I have no flex agent! And I have a 5yr warranty. Please don't go this route, though.

Hopefully you can get some money out of this and then get it fixed yourself, leaving yourself a nice Christmas bonus : ) Charge him emotional distress for everyone on the forum?

Use flex agent.

If your to bummed out every time you see your car and can't wait to fix it until summer throw a bumper bra on until then

I'll be doing it right. I figure about $100 or so to fix and paint. The rest is going in my transmission.
