$$Loss of value after being wrecked??

[CountySoldier]

Anyone know the amount of value that is lost for a car that has been wrecked?

well what do you mean by wrecked? Do you mean like a salvage title? Either way a car's value goes down no matter the accident, though if its a minor one and repaired flawless it is minor.

He has a crack in the front bumber cover and bent inercooler.

CountySoldier- Let them bolt on the new parts and no value will be lost. I know your upset but it`s almost like your not the same person I talked to when I put on your catback.
Tonight I`am getting to know the real you:??:

Man that's a tough call in this case. It can't help the value when it has been damaged, that's for sure. If the repairs can be done correctly and competently without reporting it it would have to help. But the first & foremost concern is getting the car repaired correctly and competently instead of concerns of a paper trail of this incident, at least if you plan on keeping the car. But I know from experience that one day you plann on keeping the car forever, then the next maybe not, time to sell or trade. I guess you have to make the call if you want Hensler Racing to try to fix it right or not.

SVT TO NV: Cut CountySoldier some slack. How pissed would you be if you were in his shoes? I know I'd be :cuss: also.

Ronnie-
I understand you and James are close. I know about alot of stuff that goes on there at that shop from reliable sources. Maybe no value will be lost to you but my car was wrecked, plain and simple. I think I handled it very good. If you two would stop playing games and be straight up with me we could get through this. I hate to be lied to. I think I deserve the truth. James has changed his stories so many times I don't know whats going on. I thank you for your help with the cat-back, you were very cool. However, this is between me and James.

MystiChrome Coupe- I would be very upset if it were my car, but I think he is getting a little carried away.

CountySoldier- You have a very , very nice car and I would just like to see it fixed and you be happy.Give them a chance to make it right.

I know I wouldnt even be close to handling it as well as CountySoldier.

i read the other thread about the situation, and its not just a matter of the parts or damage, but mostly about principal. There is obviously something going on...

of course i can't assume that someone was trying to have fun with his car, but if that is what happened, then as a friend, the shop owner or whoever did it should just come clean.

Scott- Everything I said on the other post about how it happened
is true.Your right , this is between you and James but I want you to know I have not lied about anything. I just don`t want Hensler Racing to have a bad name after this is all over.
