Welcome, I'm in the Lower Pottsgrove area.

bill6639 05-24-2009 09:22 AM

thanks for the replies all.

i usually hit up the tuesday night oaks meet and plan on goin to the saturday petsmart meets too possibly the ocasional meet farther away

ill be commin out this tuesday but...lastnight at 2am I hit a buck doin ~65mph... my airbags didnt go off but the front of my car is Fu*cked up
the radiator is snapped in half and shoved into my motor my bumpercover is pretty mangled
the custom grille that took me a month to make is in peices (such a small thing but that really topped it off)

idk if it'll be totaled just bc the airbags didnt go off
if it is totaled...im glad I got GAP coverage
if its repairable...im happy i have a $100 comprehensive deductable (way better than $500 collision)

UGH now I gotta drive a sh!tty rental turd for a goddamn month

but hey at least i wasnt hurt at all and i did a really good job of mutilating the bastard deer...every bone...DONE!! haha

ill get some pics up of the car once harners autobody is open on tuesday... does anyone know a really good autobody shop that can get my car in before ~2weeks (harners is backed up really far)

Welcome. I used to live near that area, in fact I went to Boyertown High School.

Sorry to hear about your car. I honestly think it would be worth it to wait on Harners, they do very good work in my opinion. I'm sure some others know of some good places too though. Good luck.
