Yea, I guess I will have insurance cover it and have the rates go up even more. I need to get a beater car that I can just drive down here and save the 8 for all the nice roads in STL.

I looked! nothing but straight boring roads that all go to the same place. My friend even showed me some roads and I still wasn't impressed.

I haven't had any experience with them though.

they used to be located by where i work and i have seen some nice results. but they do very a little some were totally unnoticeable and a few were very hard to spot but if you have a dent in an aluminum panel they can't get that out from what i have been told

I'm probably out for friday night. My car doesn't have a head unit right now, I went in to tighten some screws because it had been losing power and found that the right half of the faceplate wasn't connected at all and the screws were broken.

Aluminum has pretty much no "memory", which makes it difficult to repair; i.e. the dent cant just be "popped" out. They can try, but it probably won't be perfect.

^ We meant the Andy's in Columbia haha, would be cool if you did cause its close to where I live.

It was cool to get a close look at your 8 James, for the short moment I was there. Just seemed weird being there without my own car lol.
