what you are doing is ok in my book but the way you said it makes it sound bad/fraudulent. if i understand correctly you are going to take your truck to the body shop that you work at and write up the estimate yourself. then you are going to fix the body and do the work yourself after hours, right? and use the money left over buy the cowl hood and two tone paint if there is enough?

if you do this and wrote up an honest and fair estimate, nothing wrong with that

 

exactly.....maybe It sounded bad or whatever....but i'm doing what any other body man would do if their truck got hit. Whats the diff. in when someone hits a deer and they go to ANY shop and they want to get a cowl hood instead of a normal hood? The shop will adjust the rates on something else to make the customer happy. You might get a cowl hood for 100 bucks extra than what the insurance company is paying for.

 

 

thank you! I really like how they did the lightning the best, I wonder how it would look on a chevy tho....can someone photoshop it?

 

let me tell you insurance rates are going higher over people who get hit buy some one or hurt at work and think i deserve 50 thow for suffering the truth is if he was saying im jacking the qoute up to pay for a hood and paintjob then that would be wrong to me but he is simply getting a qoute and doing it for cost minus labor if his qoute was 2500 with a thowsand labor and he is doing the labor tthen i consider that a thowsand dollars to play with dont take what i said wrong About take what you can because im not a sue happy bastard.....I just get pissed when you get hit and its not your fault and they say well we will pay for aftermaket not original or that scratch isnt serious it dont need fixed so dont take me wrong it just pisses me off cause its not your fault but its like why should i get punished i just want my truck fixed how it was or better.. not cheaper and in worse condition

 

haha funny thread

 

 

You made it sound bad!! After all ur just charging them by the book!! No need for everyone to be mad now after u said that

 

Don't see anything wrong with upgrading as long as you're not doing it fradulantly. My Z-71 got wrecked in the front and instead of putting the LS grille and hood back on, I went with a chrome Tahoe grille and HD hood. It cost me like $50 extra.

 

What an ***...
