    Ah, Thanks Nathan

    That must me the "lower spoiler" he was talking about. Not a big deal, he said that was $70 so if he can work the JCW into the quote and if its still under the insurance quote then I guess it'll be free lol. If not, then oh darn, ill pay $70 for a JCW bumper. lol

    Well heard from the insurance guy today, Looks like from his estimate its a nice $2453.13.

    Taking it to the Dealer after payday to get fixed, Looks like a rental for a few days.

    $1200 in parts
    $450 in Body labor
    $407 in Paint labor
    $270 in Paint supplies.

    He was on the premise that I wont need a new bumper and I will be just as happy with bondo and filler to fix the hole that the bumper support punctured... So the estimate will be higher with my new bumper lol.

    Psh, How dare he think Ill be ok with a patch job.

    I have experience with Geico, but it dates back to when it was still the "Government Employee Insurance COmpany", and it wasn't a good experience. That being said, I have a few friends with them now, and they seem to had no complaints...

    My experience (grant a couple decades ago), left me ditching them, swearing to never be insured by them ever again. USAA for me.
