Has anyone had any repairs done by a body shop on their CL? My car was backed into on Sat. night, and it is scraped up pretty bad. I am taking it tomorow to get an estimate. However, I know it going to be a couple hundred dollars. Valet parking bastard's got me!

That's why I never let anybody drive my baby especially those valet b@$t@rds! Where's the damage, the front or the back?

My entire CL is being rebuilt (well the entire front end and part of the rear). It was involved in a serious 360 spinning accident and banged into the guard rail.

Parts are NOT cheep on these cars.

There are two solution to your problem:
1. The Cheap way - Screw back your front license plate and hopefully this will cover the scratches.

2. The Expensive way - Take it to a local body shop and have them fix it and then repaint it and make sure go to a reputable shop. Trust me, pay a little more is worth it!

Hope this helps you a bit. By the way, did you ever stop by cops for not having the front license plate since it's the law in the Garden State?

 

I am getting it fixed. This car is my baby, so I couldn't stand just covering it up.
I got stopped once for tints & no front plate. However, I have 15 PBA/FOP cards & a huge metal FOP shield in my front window.
