At a mates place today, some builders working on the house, i was parked out the front and we were stading in the drive way talking, and this stupid builder (just this one not all) walks past my brand new ute BF XR8 many many extras and more to come (go fast stuff)(5 weeks old) and drags his claw hammer in his tool belt (he's a tool also) along the rear quarter and scatched it down to the under coat, we saw and heard him do it, so i fronted him and he said "
idont think i did that ,we both said we watched you do it and explained that the ute was brand new and didnt have a mark on it, he said it will polish out and i told him it wont and i want it repainted, a which he admitted his guilt, i was very s%1ty and we went inside, i cooled down a bit and came back out and there he was trying to polish it with gumpsion (shower screen polish) i went off and it was all i could do to stop myself killing this guy
ing_sm .
now he said he will pay for the repairs if they arnt to costly if not he wants me to put it through insurance, what i want to know is what is this best way to fix: 1. full quarter respray (how much would this cost) 2. touch up and blend in (how much would this cost) 3. put through insurance (him paying excess)
