Yeah thats about what I figured as well.

Her insuance company called me this morning and told me they were gonna pay :D

Can someone please give me all of Ellwood's info so I can go get a quote from him. Also any other insanely expensive body shops. I'm gonna get them to pay me the cash and get a used bumper and fender flare and do some of the work myself so I can pocket some of the $$$ :wink:

Poor Winnie! Glad you're ok Louie. Couple of more body shops - Scottsdale Paint and Auto Body (expensive), Auto Body World, another really expensive shop is Chaney's but it's in Glendale.

Got her back from Ellwoods yesterday! :D

They did a fantastic job! they even did a full detail job inside and out on her before giving her back to me! Between Elwoods fantastic service, and American Family Insurance's (the insurance company of the lady that hit me) fantastic service, All in all this was a pretty pain free experiance! The insurance company even paid for my rental while Winnie was in the shop.

No boot stripes yet but they are allready paid for. Mike wants to wait 6 weeks or so for the paint to fully cure before applying them.

Here was my rental:
