Yea so when I was pulled over onto the shoulder, a car full of nice kids flys by. This is what I hear:

"YOUR CAR IS ####ING ### YOU ###GOT!"

And someone threw something at me, not sure what it was. I'm surprised I didn't black out and kill everyone.

Can't believe I forgot to add that.
 
Weeeell, I would say that would've been time to forget about the accident, jump in your car and catch them, hit them in the rear quarter panel and pushed them into oncoming traffic for a very delightful violent death, but I wouldnt have done it either.

Could be worse. The factory uicp flex hose slipped off of my throttle body while i was making a left hand turn in white marsh, and an old woman didn't even try to stop. Since I was making a turn on green, they said it was my fault.

Body shop fixed the damage and called and told me it was ready. I shop up and find my bumper all sorts of ####ed up.

Went from being happy to pissed in less than half a second. Walk in the front door, and the woman is all smiles and goes "She's all ready!". My response was "What the hell happened to my front bumper?"

Her response? "What do you mean?"

They are now saying "Oh, it was like that when you brought it in." Which is utter bullshit.

One of two things happened: a) they let some kid who works in the shop drive it, and he tore out of a parking lot and dropped the front end, or b) they put it on a flatbed and didn't put blocks down and just let that ship scrape.

What really cracks me up is that I got a call from the insurance adjuster today talking about the "additional damage that they missed" on the original inspection.

At this point, they've been told they need to fix it on their own dime if they want to see a cent of their money, or they'll be hearing from my lawyer. And according to the adjuster I talked to, they would also be hearing from Allstate's lawyer since they caused the damage and tried to make Allstate pay for it. Insurance fraud is frowned upon, apparently.

:mad:

^ Another reason why no one works on my car but me (unless I really can't help it). I can't believe those tools thought you just wouldn't notice that shit.
 
What sucks about that is the fact that now they hate you...and they are working on your car...

It would be much cooler if they now had to pay for someone else to do it.

Better pic of it in the daytime.

I wish it was just the bumper, they're cheap. I don't know anyone that sells RMDSM style carbon fiber chin spoilers.

Ah, that's classic. Add insult to injury from the safety of a moving vehicle

Give those punks' car a little of this next time:
:beatentodeath:
 
Definitly a messed up story bro. Good luck with getting it fixed man.
 
Get them to pay for a new IC. Any damages to the lines(not the fins) and it'll leak like a bi***.
 
The receipts that I have from my FMIC, lip, and bumper total:

$973.90

I figure that I can just pic up a new core from ETS (where my IC is from) for about $300-400, so giving that kid the benefit of the doubt, and NOT charging him for paint, all I'm asking from the kid is $500. But he can't even cooperate with that.

Some people just don't understand. I work for my car, and that's it. And after I can FINALLY afford to have it painted, this happens. What an ass.
