Default SHXX happened....

man, I am feeling so upset now...
In was driving the S on my way home, getting off from I-94 at about 50mph, after I merged to the right side, suddently some A$$ hole threw a beer bottle from side road into the street, and that damn bottle hit my right hand side fender and headlight ..... there is a dent like a egg size on top of my fender, the diffuser inside my right side head was broken, and there is also some minor damages on the right corner of my front bumper ....

So I saved up couple months for a set of exhaust, now i think i have to use the money for repairing my car now.....

Is there any suggestions on a good body shop inside Chicago? Please, help me ?? Also, for the headlight, I am trying to know if there is anyone can help me Clear the Diffuser please?

Vandilism.
File it under comp with your insurance, file a police report.

Your comp deductable should be low, and its really no strike against you with your insurance.

Body shops in Chicago, cant help there,

Urmil, Pete and Lee are the headlamp mod masters, I am sure they can arrange a bake and clear for you.

Sorry to hear Lee

There is a great body shop called metro auto tech united on Western. The owner is friends with my dad and he also is great friends with my neighbor Danny (blue 350z).

PM me if you want to head up and get a price quote

Did the paint chip on the dent? If not, you may be able to get it fixed through paintless dent repair.

There will be a meet soon and the paintless dent guy will be there to fix as many cars as possible. He offers his wholesale rate at that time.

Li -

I will gladly help out with your diffusers. As pete said if you havent cracked the paint on the dent, you should let our dent guy have a go at removing it. he really can work wonders, and will be even cheaper than your insurance deductable. just a thought.

watch the forum - pete will organize it when he returns from europe.
