How'd he NOT see that....it's RED for heaven's sake! I think this was more than a mere accident....this was calculated pre-meditated vandalism.

Make him fix it and buy you some new wheels.

eh...i could but what's the use. It sucks when family does it to you. Ironically my sister hit my S14 the same way with the same van last year. The S14 was red as well, guess it's a sign not to park in their driveway...or own a red car.

I'm bringing the car in for a couple estimates tomorrow. My bro already filed a claim with Allstate so hopefully they don't try to screw me and give a lower estimate when I bring it to their claims adjuster.

Drive 2:30 round trip to do 4 hrs of work. What an f'ing waste of time. Especially since there was work being done in two datacenters, and I had to drive PAST one (20 mins into my drive) to get to the other one.
