	It's a real pain when this sort of thing happens... I take it that it's 100% her fault, and that you can prove it? If so, then it's also 100% her problem - I'd be very wary about not going through the insurers - if you don't, then make sure that you get the cash in advance asap! Above all, make sure that the bodyshop is capable of doing a proper (and preferably undetectable) repair, & don't just go with the cheapest quote because it's the cheapest etc (it's her problem if it costs more to be fixed properly)!

	Cheers for the reply Paul, its 100% her fault and i'm only getting quotes from insurance approved bodyshops that are local to me as i'm not going out my way foor something thats not my fault. She lives a good 30 minutes away and is suggesting a bodyshop her partner uses for damage to company cars.......but i'm not going to somewhere that may do a less than perfect job...... If she starts being funny i'll just go through the insurance, thats if she's got any as she very keen to not to go through it!! So my plan is to get 2 more quotes and she will have to pay whatever the cheapest quote is out of the 3 and i would get the cash in advance. Will keep this updated on how i get on, will try and get a piccy sorted aswell, its not to bad at all its just where it is thats a pain, as the rear bumper need to come off as does the light which bumps up the labour costs.
