Ouch, glad you are ok. And you just did all that work pulling off the front bumper cover and cleaning it out.

My son's old Miata was recently totaled, and it was heartbreaking (luckily just bumps and bruises and scrapes on him and his passenger0. All the work that we had done on it. We got a new used Miata, and I am finding that I don't want to redo the same work again...

You are in SC, I am not sure if they have a diminished value law there, basically it says that even if they fix your vehicle you have taken a loss in value by virtue of the fact that it has been wrecked and repaired. I had an old Chevy Lumina get hit and got an extra $2500 out of it.

If you have done any work on the car make sure you let your adjuster know. I was able to get around an extra $500 on the Miata because we had done some work, had receipts, and we also had just put on 4 new tires.

Best wishes and good luck! Hurry and get a new one so you can get to a Nasa HPDE
