Re: What a way to start the day

the officer told us theres a change in the law that we have two options i can pay for it keep the receipts and it wont go on my record or his, or raise our insurance, our we could go to court
i want to do it the civil way and pay for the repair and get keep the receipts, its not much damage it broke his left tail light and pushed in the left side of the outer bed skin
I honestly think that they can cut the old skin off buy a new one or a junk yard one and weld it over, maybe buy him a light and bumper and good as new
but yall know how that can go, if he goes with someone he knows, ill probably here something like you messed up the alignment or bent the pistons in the engine, to get more cash so lets see
its a 04 dodge ram 1500
i got a bunch of work done tonight do, took off all the damaged parts off, just waiting to get replacement parts
its sad cus i just fixed my front end, yall know all the threads about swapping front ends i cried a little inside.
