Insurance estimated the damages at $2200. today. They have to replace the AC coil & the PS cooling coil along with the bumper and lower grills. Dam Turkey.
Wow, that's a bummer..... sorry to hear man.

Are you going to freeze that turkey and bring it to the meet at Vasona on the 23rd so we can have a nice lunch?

Well got my turkey killer out of the shop. The finish & fit are perfect. The final bill was $3500.00 that comes to about $600.00 per lb. Thank god for insurance and that I was not driving the new Z06 that day. I have to wait 30 days to have the clear bra installed on the bumper.
