Default Got my car out of the body shop today.

Couple weeks back my wife was at the mall and a guy backed in to the side of our TI... Hit between the door and rear wheel well. dent about 1" deep and about 1' in diameter, knocked the molding off...

Well he took responsibility for it which was cool, but his insurance company was Progressive. What a pain they were to deal with ,,, they
pissed me off within the first 5 minutes of the first phonecall.

After messing with me over shop choice, (they told my wife to bring the car by for an estimate then tried to strongarm her into leaving it taking a rental and "don't worry we only use good shops..." I told the adjuster that I wouldn't accept any shop that wasn't certified by BMW for repairs. <evil grin> and took it in to Kuni BMW in Beaverton Oregon (Suburb of Portland) Took about 2 weeks because of the weather but they did very nice work, the car looks great. Ended up painting the whole quarter panel to make the clear coat look right. Car is black and you can't see a ripple in it... almost 2000 to fix it, glad it was their money!!

Oh well thought I share...

Dave
