Sorry bout your luck there bro, but hey at least it's gettin all fixed for ya. Read those papers extremely carefully, cuz there might be something in there to completely save there asses that might screw you over somehow
yah i dont know if they would go with letting me get a whole new bumper its just popped in and all gouged and scratched to fuck from the pony all the way to the corner of the car i will need to be filled and painted thats for sure. id want the saleen or the roush tho

filled and painted?

um no.

don't do that.
they broke it ,
make them pay for a new one. if anything has to be filled that alone should constitute a full replacement.

You have the right to choose how your car is fixed and by whom not them.

If you want to go with a "patch" job that is your choice but you should definitely go with a replacement. The replacement will look better and not be an indicator of an accident should you ever go to trade it in or sell it.

dont be a dick but dont be a pussy about it
go to a mechanic, tell them what happend.(if you have a friend thats a mechanic thats also good) ask them how much it'll cost to get fixed. then asked them if they can raise that price about $200 more. then complain to the company or hotel w/e and tell them you want money for the pain and headache that its all been. a new bumper is like $200 and paint maybe another $200. ask them for about $1000 and call it done.

THATS IF its just the bumper. if anything else is even dented or scratched that is not YOUR problems thats theres.

look and inspect everythin, under the car, inside the engine bay etc..

anything else thats broken get a top of the line of it. then when everythin is done send them the bill.

if you go to court it'll be worse for them. they'll end up paying your car, problems, time, work missed, court fees.

trust me they're not gonna wana go to court. you just gotta stand tall dont settle for anything less. if its a 1inch scratch. it needs to be fixed! cuz you didnt do that...their idiot valet did

I wonder if that means the price of Mustangs will go down. I'm still interested in a GT, but I've seen no indication of this happening so far.

cruzin concepts.com you can get a whole kit for 300 juat the front bumper will give you funny lines. But it is fiber-urethane ( a mix of the two) it is light and strong what I have and I love it. It also fit great.
