i flipped out on the insurance company when they said they could fix my bed. it had a chunk missing out of it and a big crack where a guy backed into me. they wanted to plastic weld it together and i wasnt up for it. it wasnt like that before their guy hit me.

long story short, i got my way

ya i was going cheap as possible... im 20 and in college(aka broke) and my accident was my own stupidity and i really didnt want to put it on the insurance.. so i paid $900 out of pocket opposed to $1300+ to replace the entire driver side bed skin... but ya i totally agree you deserved new and not repaired.
