It's a pain in the ass to do it the right way, this is the second one I've done and I hate doing s2000s. Done tons of civics, my old k swapped hatch, etc, and those are cake compared to this lol. I have almost 30 hours in it, soldering and making sure I never have a problem and wiring is one of my specialties. The way the fenders are set up and liners make it a weird setup and I've tried a few different ways of doing it and I think this job is the best way I've figured out.

yeh i'm new here so Hello.

I'm might be a little late with this info but figured i would post anyway for anyone else that finds themselves in similar situation. My cousin was rear ended about a month ago and we learned a few things, since the accident was not his fault technicaly his insurance should not go up.... But.... If you go through your insurance and they help with paper work and kind of become the middle man to help settle with the at fault parties insurance then they will raise your rate a little. Best to leave them out of it, just let them know. And another thing that is interesting, since the accident will show up on car's history report it will decrese the carfax and autocheck score which also affects the cars value, even though it is not a salvage it still shows accident. You can ask for decreased value difference as part of settlement, so if your car in pristine condition with good history is worth say $15,000, the accident will decrease value to say $13,000 after all repairs, they would have to give you that $2,000 on top of what ever the repairs cost. I dont know if is the case in other states but i do know it is florida law.

Just to clarify, you feel his rates went up for filing a claim with his company eventhough he was not at fault ?
