    Update on the marauder

    Well insurance totaled it at $9,800 in damage. The body shop we deal with took the car and tore it down and got the cost down to $9,200. So its being repaired. They found a marauder front cap with everything we need for $4,000. Outside that they found the windshield cracked and when the fender was removed it ran on up the glass.. so that's a minor add on. Also something to do with the air suspension was damaged but they said that wouldn't cost much. Dad is planning on paying the extra 1k for a full paint job. So she should be back on the road in a couple of weeks they say! Can't wait. We've really missed it. Here's pics I took last time at the shop.

    A guy turned in front of my parents and nailed them in the drivers corner of the front end..slung them across the road and through a small ditch. :/ search my posts the pics of it are there. It's not pretty.

    That hurts just looking at it. I am glad you are able to get it fixed since it is the best color car!!! I sincerely hope they fix it as good or better than new.
