Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
Sorry to hear about your accident, but am glad you are OK. Dealing with insurance companies is challenging, even with the better ones. Whatever they want to give you new - go for it!

Re: Wrecked my Hummer yesterday
Thanks Jim. I'm ok. I had the shop put a lot of aftermarket parts on there so my cost that I'm responsible for went up; 1/4" steel winch full bumper w/ 4 PIAA lights. Eliminates the plastic 'upper bumper' that the DRLs go into.
I was hoping to save my deductible by foregoing the new grille but looks like they are hosing me either way.
Atleast with the old grille I get $200 credit, otherwise $590 is added to the balance.

Nothing out of pocket except for a $500 deductible. I had them add an upgraded Road Rhino 1/4" steel winch bumper w/ 4 PIAA lights instead of the stock metal / plastic bumper with OEM DRL. This added about $300 more than what OEM parts were, leaving a balance due by me. If I would've kept it stock, only $500 would be owed by me.
So reusing my scratched grille & having it coated in Line-X was SUPPOSED to save me $590 on my bill, but was only allowed $200 now.
I hope this makes sense as I'm now confused after typing it. :ack:

Better late than never 
Now I need to get me a winch. Mile Marker most likely, as Warn is too rich for my blood. Plus I only plan on using it during snow storms to pull people out of ditches.
