Most important thing is that your exhaust is okay.

The drunk guy pulled out in front of my buddy which caused us both to slam on our brakes and with the wet floor and loose grave on Henderson I slide right into him .

And yes Greg it is safe and in good shape I will soon be reaching out to you again to get a tune up on the tune you provided me just for maintenance purposes.

Try New Concepts in Plano, if they aren't too busy they would be an excellent option.

Well depressing updating news took my car last week Tuesday to the progressive center in Lewisville got a rental had to pay 30 bucks a day for that stupid thing.... The damage total cost with labor came out to 3,500.00 bucks front bumper hood some minor work and paint. I get the call today a week and 2 days later its ready for pick i go over before work and there a 1/4in gap on the left size between the bumper and fender the headlight is pushing out a little and the hood to fender there a 1/4 gap taller where you can see the engine bay.

Now I'm not an ass by any means but the insurance adjusters are suppose to do a walk though of the work before they call you and check off on the work before you get your car. They did and didnt see that and tried to says its because its a Honda... After spending 790.00 bucks deductible and rental fees im going to picky I want my car the way it was before I got hit. After 30 minutes of arguing my case they took it to the back for there guys to try and fix it with no success so now they sent it back to the shop to be fixed and gave me a free rental... It never ends.... I wouldn't mind as much now but I start my new job in Granbury,TX July 14th i have 1 week for them to fix it.... Gay......... sorry for the rant its a longgggg day....

At least it's moving, its been the same time, a week and two days for me, and statefarm hasn't even let me know whether mines going to be totalled or if its fixable. I'm just in total limbo right now.

The shop that is doing the work from Progressive is COLLISION CENTRAL of LEWISVILLE, I will say the work is really good the paint is spot on and matches looks like it came from Honda themselves, I dont know why they didnt catch this or thought it wouldn't matter but here are some pictures of the damage and the work that has been done and why its going back til god knows when...
