    Advice for dealing w/ adjusters?

    Fredric @ Kenny H's said they can find the OEM rims, which will be good. I think the windshield may need to be replaced, the biggest chip is almost though the winsheild (small, but deep). James

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    There is a deep chip in the windhield. Will they replace glass for multiple deep chips, or do they try and "fill" them? I also have several nicks on the drivers quarter. MM

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    Any tips on how to deal with the apraisal people? After playing the accident over in my mind several times, I think his quarter/bumper and wheel hit me. Wheel to wheel, bumper enough to chip paint. What could have been damaged by an impact at that speed? James

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    Sonoovabitch! Comming back to work on the highway, i'm in the left lane. Black SUV cuts me off (i'm half way to his drivers door by this point). As he starts to come over, I nail the brakes and hold on. He hits my nose a bit with his bumper, sending me into the concrete divider rails. I slide...

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    It's hard to get good pics on the white car.. white inherently hides body damage. But if you run your hand across the areas, you can feel the clear is completely gone in most place, some down to bare resin. Not any one major damage place, just lots of small areas. Would they have to paint the...

    How much of a hood can be fixed?

    How much damage to a hood will they consider "fixable" and what type of bodyshop does this? I will not settle for a bondo job! If the hood was hit, can hit spider web? James

    Viper wreck UPDATE

    Ok.... he'res what i've found so far: Passenger side hood has 1/4" paint removed, scraped. I now belive he hit my wheel and his bumper also hit my hood. Hood alignment looks a bit off to me. Light scrapes on the tire, which backup my theory. Front facia, drivers side. heavy paint chipping...

    WRECKED MY VIPER! HIT AND RUN! GRR!

    As I am now calm, now i'm worrying. I hit that wall HARD and pretty fast... I think it's got more damage than what I saw on the outside. On the short drive home, it wouldn't stay strait and was thumping like mad. Can anyone recomend a viper tech in SC??? James
