PlastiDip Withstands Accident!!
Scenario dropping my girlfriend off at the train station. Lady waving at her friend to pick her up not paying attention pulls out of her parking space and clips my entire rear quarter panel, damages my back rim, and rear bumper. But hey atleast the dip held up lol not so cheap after all for all the nay sayers. Vinyl wrap would have been toast and stock paint would have been trashed too.
Can yall give me an estimate on this damage. I should be able to get the insurance company to reimburse me for a new dip job since it is a specialty coating right ? Entire car needs to be repaint because its a custom color and cant be color matched. Car needs to be stripped and stock color repainted. I was just about to give my baby a bath for the weekend too smh. Its more an inconvenience then anything.

Insurance won't pay to repaint/re-plasti-dip the car. They'll only pay for what it costs to repair the damaged area.

Damn that sucks! even if I had a custom traditional paint with flames and stuff they wouldnt pay to for the repaint? Insurance only covers taking the vehicle back to stock? because the wheel is damaged as well so their has to be some leeway there.
