Default $2948.43

I let my GF take my car to work 1st day of the new year and BAM, she gets hit and ran into a firehydrant. She is ok! I've only had it 4 months.

So for 2 new fenders, headlights and bumper cover, paint, labor..... it will be $2948.43. BUT! I keep telling them the radiator was leaking bad, I forgot to mention she ran over a street sign, so there is some "hidden" internal damage they keep saying.

When I was looking at the estimate it states 2008, 2.0... I was under the impression that I got a 1.8. How do I check this out? When I google the VIN, carfax web states 2.0 also. If that true it's all good cause I get great gas milage!

It should say on the emissions sticker under the hood. Here is mine on my 09 with a 2.0

Just above the 980AA on the right bottom is the 2.0 engine size.

Bummer about the crash!!! Glad she's ok though.

It has been a week and the insurance co is giving me the run around. I still dont have a rental car and they have not started on my car. The estimate said it would take about 5 days. URGH!

Did you figure out if it was a 1.8 or 2.0?

Default It's about time!

I just got my car back after 1 month and a day. Well now I have to take it back to get an alignment, they forgot to do that. On the plus side whild it was at the body shop I got the windows tinted and that looks awesome! I looked under the hood and comfirmed that I got the 2.0! I hope to throw in a header and catback this month!
