Amanda is Shauns gf.. he has a turbo S.. she works at the shop, and can give you an estimate.

Just tell her you're from S2ki and she'll know.

xbigsexy23x,
I'm sure your insurance covers vandalism under the "comprensive" portion of your policy. You'll just have to pay the deductable.


My S got damaged by kids throwing rocks over a fence, little rock dents and scratches all over it. Whatever you do, DON'T GO TO MAACO! They so a shitty job, all of them.

Take it to Spectrum Painting & Collision Center on S. Four Mile Run Drive in Arlington. They do amazing work. Talk to Mark, he owns the place. I can't remember the # right now, but do a search on this site under their name and you'll see a lot of satisfied people who have had great service there.

Good luck with it.

Warren

The key word used by Warren was "insurance!" Besides, I wouldn't want to some hack spraying my car. I'm of the mindset that if it costs more(when it comes to labor-type stuff), it usually is better.

I don't see why it should cost you or your girlfriend any moire than the insurance deductable. That is, assuming you have comprensive and a reasonable deductable. Mine is $100.
