    How do I find out how many Vipers were made?

    I have a '01 Sapphire Blue ACR. I heard that '01 was the only year for Sapphire Blue, and that there were only about 28 Sapphire Blue ACR's made for that year. How can I confirm this? Thanks

    Clear Bra Film

    To those who have it, for dark colored cars, how well can you tell that it's there? How much shine and gloss come through the film?

    How much is reasonable for this ACR

    Gary at Defratus says the damage was minor and no suspension or damage underneath. I was fortunate. I sent you a PM.

    How much is reasonable for this ACR

    Jason, I did a little hydroplaning on I-20. The front of my car hit the car beside me. Defratus assures me they will repair good as new. One headlight needs to be replaces as well as the bumper cover. All I'm waiting on is the bumper cover to come in. I hoping to get $53k for it. We'll see.

    How much is reasonable for this ACR

    ViperJohn, these are before, but Defratus assures me that when they are done it will look exactly the same. From the recommendations I've had from them, I believe them. They work on a lot of the local celebrities' cars, like the Cowboys players. They have a great rep.

    Unfortunately yes, someone will fall for it. They do this because people want to believe it. :(

    How much value did I lose?

    Thanks for the input, this is what I'd like to think is true. People just have an aversion to buying a vehicle that has been in an accident, regardless of how minor the damage before repair. Its just a stigma, regardless if the car is repaired to as new condition.

    How much value did I lose?

    Just received a call from the shop with a better estimate. Probably about $12k. That's not as bad as I was thinking it would be. :D He said the only thing slowing the process is waiting on the front bumper cover.

    How much value did I lose?

    Well, I have not heard back yet, but initially he said maybe $20k. This is along the same lines as what some others on this forum had with similar damage.

    Got in an accident..your estimate on damage by photos

    I read some took as much as 2 months or more to get the car back :shocked: I really wasn't expecting it to take that long. This is depressing. The shop got the car Tuesday afternoon. I'm waiting on pins and needles to hear what the estimate will be.

    Got in an accident..your estimate on damage by photos

    Russ, I appreciate your concern. I had the same concern, regarding who works on my car, when looking a place to repair. I called the dealership I bought my car through and the dealer was adamant on the same issue. He recommended a local shop that he sends all his Vipers to. Oddly enough a...

    Got in an accident..your estimate on damage by photos

    Thanks to all for the support and good will. $25-28k in damage! :shocked: If the vehicle is worth $55, do you think Insurance will want to total it? Now that it has been wrecked, is it best that they do? Your opinions on this matter are appreciated.
