Assuming you will have it repainted- make sure the shop knows you will be a pain in the butt if its not done PERFECT. I had my 2005 Laser Red bumper replaced a month ago and when I picked it up, the color match was perfect, but the paint on the lower trim was not done right, and there were a bunch of defects that looked like dirt or bubbles in the finish and there were two small dents in the 'brand new bumper'. As you'd guess, that didn't go over too well. After talking with the shop manager for a while he commented "we don't rub out the bumper jobs as well as we would a fender- the insurance company doesn't give us enough for these small jobs". A week later, I had a new bumper and a flawless paint job, but it was painful.

Go buy yourself another turban and a Prada bag. It'll make you feel better.
j/k I feel for ya Neft. Hope she'll be back like new soon.
That was a scarf... not a turban, & that was a Louis Vuitton bag... not prada, get your facts straight ho!!
Anyway, i missed my appointment, f*cking allergies almost kill't me... then the whole community lost power until a few hours ago, then just now i had to get someone to come by & look @ the roof which mysteriously started leaking, & that was only after the closet rod thing you hang your clothes on broke & took all the shelves w/ it!!
... if you can't tell i had a bang-up weekend!!
Don't hate me, it's my life & you can't have it...!!
*walks away & looks for battery acid cocktail to drink*
