Well, I am not even sure Diminished Value is an issue in my case. The total damage is somewhere around $3500. I did not file a claim on my insurance; instead I let Enterprise's insurer handle it. I specifically asked them if this claim would be reported and they said they aren't authorized to do so unless I ask them. The body shop said the same thing too. So I am not really sure how this would affect the car's resale value.

It's taking a while as the insurance was dragging ass on approving the supplement. Work started in earnest on Tuesday. I got pictures today showing some progress on the paintwork. I've been told I might possibly be able to take delivery of it tomorrow (Friday). Fingers crossed.
