I picked car up today. Initial impression, looks like a brand new car. The car was of course 11 years old with 115K mi and had accumulated all the battle scars you get over that time when the car gets used for daily transportation. The previous owner put 108K mi on it as a daily driver with almost all freeway miles. I had them address every bump, dimple, pit or other paint imperfection and they did a very nice job. Whole front got painted/blended, driver door painted/blended, rear bumper repainted/blended, passenger side rear quarter panel scratch repaired painted/blended.

The insurance covered new front bumper and top grille, driver side front fender replacement, new driver side skirt, new driver side front wheel (OEM from dealer), new front shock ( we replaced both sides as I had to buy a whole kit(all 4)), wheel bearing, hub, rotor. And of course they aligned the car, drives perfect.

Now to decide what to do with this.
Pictures will be posted soon
