Default DO NOT GO TO JAFBROS!!!!

God I made that mistake and I had the exact same thing happen, going up 395 from carson and oh crap!!!! the cop in front of me put his lights on and stoped traffic cuz no one could see anything mean while my car sounded like it was in a blender.

then jafbros did the body work.... and they did the %#@iest job i didnt even think was possible, my windshield wipers were backwards, they put the wrong windshield on my car and the wrong bracket for my rear mirror so it was laying on the seat when i picked up the car... and the list goes on.... dont go there.!!!!

So, I met with Stan the adjuster this morning...He said the damage to my windshield and Radiator/Condenser was the worst he's EVER seen.

Anyway, cut me a check for $4000, I'm gonna take it to Lithia. They are also going to cover new clearbra and the body shop gets to decide on the intercooler.

Nah, not unless I swap the turbo...I'm very happy and content with my power right now, in fact, at Auto-x, there are times when I have to be careful to not overuse the power. Right now my focus is on suspension and handling, the car will be unstoppable with an upgrade in suspension.

Yes, I may take you up on that. I think they told me I should wait like 3 weeks before sticking anything to the new paint., So, I'll probably do it in June.

Let's hope your Unstoppable Force doesn't meet an Immovable Object. The universe could end by a giant sucking rift in the space-time continuum forming around your car.

Yea I remember that song. Very old and overplayed song indeed. The last time I heard it was from a DDR machine.

Yes, it goes hand-in-hand with the nKoan theme song...

Daft Punk "One more time"

I wish there was a way I could queue that song to play whenever Nick walks into a room..

So I got an update today...the car is no where near being ready to go For the amount of time their taking, it had better turn out good!..


I recieved word that the Intercooler is going to be replaced, which I'm happy about. Originally, they were going to have A1 radiator repair it, but it was too heavily damaged.

Anyway, I'll see it next week sometime I guess.

I think it depends more on the insurance company than anything...Allstate didn't care about who I was with or where it even happened, he pretty much inspected Scott's car and Mine back-to-back, and treated them as entirely seperate cases.
