yeah the pics cant even begin to compare with how it looks in person.

The rear badge was left alone. Ive never been a fan of the debadged look.

From what i know insurance would pay for his damages but since he picked a color other than the original he probably had to pay a lil bit more too. But i could be wrong.

if the body shop said that it would be cheaper (or same) to repaint the car than repair all the panels and they proved it to the insurance company i see no reason why they wouldn't be ok with it.

True but i didnt say it wasnt ok i just sed that if he decided to change the color he would probably pay a lil extra. He would probaby pay the deductible plus a lil bit more on the side.

Sorry guys. I got the call about an hour ago that its ready for pickup!

Couple things happened while putting the car back together to cause the wait. Window installer broke 2 of my windows, the new headlights took forever to come in. Just little things like that. Its done now and looks amazing. I'm picking it up on tuesday cause thats my only day off work.

As for the price.....insurance paid for most. I had to pay for the door jams, and paint. Ended up costing me about 1,000 for everything which isnt bad for a 5,000 dollar paint job.

I ordered new rims as well and may order a c/f lip kit. I'll post pics as soon as I have them.
