thanks everyone.

I'm gonna be too scared to take my car out on the road once I have my gho bumper installed!

I explained to the offending party's insurance agent that I had imported the bumper myself, it was out of production and he asked me to pull up the receipt (which is actually very convent on Buyee). He said they must return the car as it was, before being hit. So I was compensated the price of the bumper, shipping from Japan and paint! Not so bad. This all happened in about 15 minutes.

I should have pulled up the Zoom Engineering website instead of Buyee, I could have had more money!

If they paid you that fast you could have haggled for more, just my opinion though. At least the car will get fixed.

shit its a score if they just cover the shipping haha...you gonna take that extra loot and get your entire car resprayed?

I figured that out after, Phat.

I agree Nam! I asked Buddha how much a full spray would be. $3500+ "since its a small car" so nope. Not that I'm trash talking the shop, I'm sure it's worth every penny! I just can't swing it right now. I think I'll have just enough to get the bumper fixed, sprayed, my GV panel sprayed and maybe the Trap spoiler sprayed too.

That's about right for a legit paint job.. not sure I would spend that either.. that's why I'm going to wrap mine

What colors are you considering?

Got a huge screw in my freshly installed spare wheels today, the bad luck streak continues. But I got it plugged shortly after. Should be driving Grange kart track in a couple weeks, it's a nice little .8 mile track perfect for miatas, reminiscent of a short Japanese track.

I posted some colors on Instagram but you are not on there.... Yet

So far I'm leaning towards the light grey, dark green or yellow

GREEN!

[theothersawyer]

That blue is beautiful!

[Tkblazer]

I know I really like all the colors.. looks like it's about $450 for enough vinyl to wrap an entire miata so it's not that bad to change colors up

[etikoner]

So good.
Damn didn't see all the reply after the pic with SSR's.

Glad the insurance company compensated you relatively fairly.. $3500 bucks is actually not that much for a paint job.. Just have to make sure the body shop doesn't half ass everything and go crazy with bondo (like they did with mine)...
