Better then new...

Alright guys... after two weeks of waiting she's finally done. The body shop did an amazing job I couldnt be more happy with the outcome. To be honest it looks better then before due to the fact that the rear bumper and trunk lid had a few scratches on it before the accident so those obviously dont exist anymore.

The shop replaced the following parts: OEM Tail lights, OEM bumper cover, OEM trunk lid, OEM bumper reinforcement, OEM rear end sheet metal... both 1/4 panels, trunk lid, and bumper cover were painted (the color matches perfectly! )

Total cost parts and labor: $3600

after the accident:



after the repairs:

Nice Work But It Doesn't Look Like It Was That Bad For 3600$ From The Picture But It Looks Good

Looks good. Make sure you inspect everything after the repair.

It looks like they did a pretty good job.

Now I just need to get mine into a good bodyshop...

looks good. I'm glad it came out better than you expected. Sucks getting it wrecked so soon after buying it.

Looks good, but I have to agree with s55lear about the 02-03 tails.
