If you ask for the diminished value, they have to give it to you, if you don't mention it, they won't offer it.

Good luck.
This was the best advice i got when i was rear ended (and subsequently pushed into the car in front of me).

Got a check somewhere between 3-4k. Repairs were to the tune of 2K at least, so thankful i didnt have to pay a dime.

On topic: Deleted the sound tube today. Noticeable difference for sure.

Finally took the car out for a drive in the Burlington/Dundas area (the Ontario boys and girls will know where I'm talking about). Snake Road did not disappoint one bit - wow. So unfortunate that so many of Ontario's roads are just straight and flat.

White dipped rims

Hey everyone!

First post here, figured I'd start with something I did recently to my FR-S.

Spent the better part of a whole day cleaning and dipping my rims.

4 cans of base white plastidip, 2 cans of pearlizer.

They almost perfectly match the halo white.

I've never seen the stockers in white. Definitely makes them look better. Welcome to FT86Club

Looks good! I've been contemplating doing my daily stock wheels in white. Might just do it this weekend now.

Thanks for the welcome.

I'd seen white dips on the stocks before, but not with the pearl. Without the pearl it makes them look plastic and they are a stark white in contrast to the car, doesn't look very good at all. $30 for 2 cans of pearl changes the game though. I honestly didn't know what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised. They'll do until I can get some aftermarkets.
