Talked to James at Weldcraft today about repairing the wheel. About a $100 he said, so thats fine. I got a price on the bumper cover from ford it retails for $1300. Reinhart has one for $1200 & a aftermarket new one is $550. But i got the hookup thru the dealer i work at and im getting a OEM bumper from ford for .........$530.38 which is dead cost:banana2:. Its still going to be down for a couple of weeks so Im stuck in the Lightning

That's an amazing deal on the bumper cover. I've been looking for something like that for an OEM rear cover for awhile.

Im not actually going to file a claim. My insurance is high enough right now so i'll fixing it myself. It looks like the tally will be

1. Bumper cover- $590 w tax
2. $Fix wheel - $100
3. Shipping both ways for the wheel $55
4. Alignment- free at work
5. Mount 1 tire & road force balance 2- free at work
6. Paint bumper cover- $217

Total $962

I have a 500 deduct so i wont even bother w/ insurance plus I'll know the work was done right:D

You are doing the right thing by fixing it yourself.
The Ins. company will surcharge you for three years and get their money back +.
Good luck with the repairs.:D
