Came back from a bike ride yesterday to find my car like this.

Anybody have experience with getting a loss of value claim done after repairs?

That SUCKS. Can't help you on the claim question but I hope everything works out for you... looks almost entirely cosmetic so hopefully just a new bumper required. If that's the case maybe just look at paying out of pocket for the replacement to avoid it being recorded as a claim/collision?

In most states that have that in the insurance code it is done automatically as part of the claim, with a right to appeal. There is also usually an upper mileage limit (in Georgia it's 100,000 miles).

I had this happen when my car was "front ended" when someone pulled out in front of me. The damage was relatively minor (it's in my owner's journal) but cost about $4,000 to fix. Since the car had 98,000 miles or so on it, I got a diminished value check of $3.54. I did have to complete a form but the insurance company prompted me to do it.

If you search for your state and "diminished value" you'll see way more than you could possibly want on the subject as every injury attorney in your state will have it on their webpage.

Just starting the process with the other guys insurance. He wasn't paying attention pulling out and turned into my car. Mostly just damage to the bumper cover, liners, headlight, foglight harness and sidemarker.

Rekt, totaled I know. Just over 6 months on the car.

The alignment of your hood looks OK in the photo but make sure they check the fender support. The front of it is pretty thin and gets tweaked easily. Mine was bent under slightly causing a slightly wider gap and a pushed up hood.

Photos here.

The shop didn't notice it during the estimate and had to go back to get an addendum to fix it.

Ahem... COL ... I didn't appreciate that such things existed.. I suppose the truck decoration matches the Burberry baseball cap, T shirt and underwear.

I just hope that Burberry has totally different and better branding management than they do in the UK.
