...and i hit a goddamn concrete divider while going onto an onramp. the snow and rain that was going to 'clear up this afternoon!' kept going all day and froze b/c the temperature went below 30 instead of 40 like was predicted. Of course there was no salt laid down, and I hit a patch of ice and nailed my front bumper at 20-25mph. My ****ty tires and the poorly surfaced/under-construction ramp didn't help.
My left headlight shattered, and my left foglight popped right out (headlight works, foglight doesn't). my left fender looks ok, except for where it meets the bumper, and my hood is displaced to the left at the bottom by an inch, but otherwise looks perfect. The bumper is cracked right between the 2 left headlights, from top to bottom. insurance will charge a $500 deductable and will pay for all repairs. they want me to go to the dealer and get an estimate, and they'll cover whatever the estimate is. I don't know what their policy is on parts, because I'm wondering if I can get the TRD bumper if they're going to replace the damn thing instead of repair it. Don't know how much more it'll cost or if the insurance will not cover that part. Should I worry about anything the dealer will do? like, replacing the hood and fender (which look easily repairable, hood probably just needs to be repositioned) but not using the exact shade of paint and leaving it off-color (or using poor quality paint that chips easily)? |
