Trust me when I tell you Spectrum Auto Painting and Collision Center - Spectrum Auto Painting & Collision Center in Arlington does AMAZING work.

I have pics of the accident and repair in my album here - https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?act=m...bum&album=12789

You won't be disappointed by going to Spectrum.

They also touched up little rock nicks in the paint for free, and also when there was a little hitch with the insurance company and I needed my car for fall colors, they let me have the car back before they got the check from the ins company. Very nice people.

 

Ouch! What happened? Is there a thread that covers it?

 

No, no thread that covers it. But here's the story:

One night in August of 02 I left my office in downtown Baltimore and it started pouring. I mean it was raining in buckets. I was tired and all I could think about was getting home. So I decided to trudge along.

I got onto the JFX (I 83) heading out of town, and around the S-turns are (right by Penn Station), I hit a puddle of water and the rear end swung around, got sideways and the left front fender area hit the Jersey barrier which sent the left rear into the wall. The LR tried to climb the wall, that's what tore the whole LR suspension up, all those parts had to be replaced.

I thought damages would be around $6K-$8K. Spectrum said don't be surprised if it's $12-$15K. That's where it started. By the time the final bill was atllied, the total was $19K

I think the ins co would have totaled the car if they knew in the beginning it would have cost $19K to fix it.

That was 3 yrs ago and the car performs like it did before the accident. I can't tell any difference. Guess I was lucky.
