Well it looks like just about everybody that had major problems is back on the road now. We got our S back from John Eagle Honda yesterday. They still had 2 other S2000 in for repairs when we picked ours up and a black that was totaled. Hope that was no one on here. What started out as $3500 first estimate came out to be $9600+ after the wife parked under that SUV.

I lost my Ram-air setup since it wasn't stock, and 2 of my Ricks emblems, but other than that she looks great. The STB and the Digrappa X brace held up fine and kept the front suspension from getting damage. They were able to pull the alignment in to my specs just fine. Got a new windshield, rag top (nice to have a clear back window again), leather seat on passenger side and a new dash. The paint job looks great, but now we have to claybar the front half of the car all over again............oh well good exercise for that New Year resolution I will only keep for a few months

Hope to see everyone at this months meeting, its been a few months since we came out to one ........ We look forward to meeting all the new members that have joined recently.

Happy New Year all

According to my insurance company, repairs must generally exceed 80% of the value of the car for it to be a total loss.

Unfortunately, I know this from recent experience.
