Default Slow plow hitn my car update

About 8 weeks after the whole thing started.. finally heard back from the city..

They are paying for replacing my entire front bumper cover.. $1417.87 CAD at a body shop...

How ever i opted to do the work myself.. cutting me a cheque for $1200..

Kinda made my day!!

that's awesome!! good for the city for taking responsibility. i know a lot of places probably wouldn't or would give you the runaround for years.

the car needs a few lil things (as some of you might of noticed by me asking a bunch of stuff)

So im just going to fix up all the little anoying things for now, as far as mods go id love to start doing some but me and my girl are planning on building a house next year (there goes $275,000)

The cars front end needs painting, so im going to repaint the whole front for now...

hopefully start working on it by the end of may, ill take some pics for sure, who knows how its gonna turn out.. as far as $$ goes, shouldnt cost that much.. but ill let you know what the grand total will be what was done... (the 1417 quoted include a brand new bumper cover and all the brackets from GM)

I'm glad the city coughed up the money. Alot of the times you have to hire a lawyer and hope for the best.

LOL... probably... They are crying that they have like a 10,000,000 deficit this year...

here's an idea... dont hit peoples cars with your god damn plows! (according to the lady i was dealing, which was great, it happens pretty darn often)

oh, and it doesnt take 5 people to fix a god damn pot hole (which also damaged my car earlier in the year)

-Taz, alot of my friends used to bitch and moan about the road condition in Windsor... come out here and you'll love yours!
