i dropped it off at one of the "approved" collision centers that their insurance recommended. since i am not paying anything for this, i wasn't going to go looking around. it is going to be an interesting decision to make if they total it out and offer to give me what they think it is worth, because we have taken really good care of this thing and my intention was to run it into the ground before getting something else.
It didn't look like you had any frame damage. At least it's not as bad as it could have been. 13 years old though.
Honda's keep their values really well, but when I was smacked from behind back in 08, the dude's insurance was only willing to give me $4800 for my Civic. They wouldn't even talk about a repair. My entire back end was destroyed though. Frame damage and all. The trunk was full of itself. Mine was 11 years old and I took really good care of it, plus I had some aftermarket parts on it. I guess I was lucky to get what I did.
But still, it was a pain in the ass I didn't want to deal with at the time.

Shit, I wouldn't have recommended using their "approved" shop. Depending on the insurance company that could be bad news. Certain insurance companies force the shops to do sub-par work and use inferior parts in exchange for being on their referral program.Originally Posted by deebakes
The insurance company writes a crappy estimate and if the shop supplements additional damage that was missed or poorly written they get a black mark on their record. Enough black marks and the shop can get thrown off the program. The InsCo's use this as a threat to keep repairs cheap, not necessarily proper.
In other words if it's a Progressive or Geico claim, pray they total it or that the shop values quality over money.

apparently the cost for repairs is now down to around $3100, which i guess they are going to cover (american family insurance) and go ahead with the repair. i think this repair place is by far the most reputable of the three they recommended. sounds like it might be 2-3 weeks before my car is back though
As long as they're paying for the rental, then fuck them. Let the kid's parents take the hit to their insurance as hard as it can hit them.
I don't know if this is good advice or not, but after what Pony said about them doing a shit job on repairs to cut costs, you might want to take your car to your own mechanic when you get it back and see if he can tell you what they short changed you on, if they did at all. I'm not sure what it would prove, but if it were me, I'd want to know.

after reading this from imdb
i will be downloading this film to watch this weekendThere is a seven-minute lesbian sex scene which is graphic and shows intimate close-ups of two lesbian lovers engaged in passionate and energetic sex. Cunnilingus is shown with the mouth on the vulva. Buttocks and rimming are shown realistically. The two women engage in lengthy sixty-nine. Scissoring is also shown. One woman orally pleasures another for a long time. Lots of saliva is shown. Women are shown sucking and kissing each other's breasts. Orgasms are shown. Explicit shots of the female vulva are shown later in the scene.
Today definitely feels like Monday

Considering the entire movie is about a lesbian love affair, and done rather explicitly, that can be expected, yes.
