Clean

A couple of weeks ago, I was pulling out from a parking spot that was near a concrete island. I don't know the real name of it, but the island is an area for plants and a light pole. I thought I pulled out enough to get around it. How wrong I was. I hear a loud noise and then heard something fall to the ground. I parked my car and got out. I saw the damage. The concrete lip of the island ripped off trim that ran along the bottom of the passenger side of my car. I was not happy. I picked up the trim, put it in my car and drove home.

I wasn't going to fix it. That was until I opened my passenger side door. When the trim was pulled off the car by the concrete, it pulled up my right front fender. When I opened the door, the door rubbed on my fender. Not good.

I waited until I received our tax return before making an appointment at the body shop. I took my car there last week and had it looked at. The body shop guy gave me an estimate. I wasn't surprised at the price. It was what I was expecting. My tax refund paid for it. He asked me if insurance was paying for it. I told him I was. He was surprised. I said it was my fault because of my stupidity and I would pay for it. He asked if I was sure. Yes. I was. I later found out from my husband that our insurance wouldn't even covered it.

I dropped off my car earlier this week and received a loaner car. The loaner car was the same car as mine just four years newer. I loved that car. It had great pickup and different options then what I have in my car. I really liked the radio buttons that were on the steering wheel.

A day later, I dropped off the loaner and picked up my car. The body shop did a fabulous job with my car. When I sat in the drivers seat, it was all the way back. My feet didn't even touch the pedals. The seat was also really low. It took about five minutes to change all the mirrors and get my seat back to where I had it. I noticed something else was different about my car. It took a couple of seconds, but I figured out what it was. The body shop guys dusted the inside of my car. I've owned my car for six years and never dusted. It looks like a brand new car. It was awesome. They also vacuumed my car out too. I need to go to the body shop more often. (Not really). They really know how to clean. This morning on my way to work I noticed something else. They cleaned the inside of my windshield! I was blown away. I've been wanted to clean it forever. Now it is done and it is crystal clean.

As you can tell, I'm very satisfied with the job that they did on my car.
