tysn Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 so i was going to a girls house that invited me over for dinner. i was going through a parkinglot and a toyota paseo had its nose poking out. so i stopped to let her out. the female driver was watching for the traffic to her right but didn't look to her left. she pulled out and got the front passenger fender of my car. damage didn't look too bad so i just let it go. well i was going down the road a little bit later and i feel a weird vibration coming from my front end along with squeeling noise coming from my rear. so i hunt the girl down and we exchange info. what do you guys think will happen, she claimed fault.

SakoTGrimes Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 I say let her pay for it if she's claiming fault, which sounds like it is. I got damage today too! (backing up, didn't see a pole) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tysn Posted July 11, 2005 Author Share Posted July 11, 2005 well just to update you on the situation. the suspect called her insurance company and i filled out my police report. i got a call from her insurance telling me the girls father may pay it out of pocket. from the quotes i have cv joint, suspension and body damage. total estimate comes to around 1000 bucks, so should i just have the man pay for it or get the ajuster out here and let him see it for himself?

baccaruda Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 personally, i'd take the $1000, fix it myself, and pocket at least $600. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballitch Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 i agree with the two above, you have people here that can answer any questions you have regarding suspension. its taking time out of your life, why shouldnt you come out ahead? ~Josh~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodsWagon Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Or you could be nice to the guy and drop the price to 800 bucks. He would feel less used and you would still make a tidy profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
