Angry Crashed my P-car last Night =(

hey guys!

i crashed my p-car last night =(

after i crashed and pulled to the side of the road, a taxi crashed in the same exact location 5 minutes later when i was waiting for the police to arrive.

the body of the car seems fine, damage to the front and rear driver side wheels, probably suspension damage, and undercarriage issues, probably replace front bumper too

the question is, where should i get this fixed? i have full coverage from allstate insurance. my choices are Ron (vipertestarossa) or dealer recommended body shop - ossinging auto body (new york), any recommendations? has anybody used ossinging before? the dealer highly recommends them and they say he does perfect work and ron did my suspension and he also does excellent reputation... it just happens that ossinging is also an official allstate repair shop, which i am not sure if that is good or bad since i am afraid they will not replace the broken items with brand new items or they replace everything that needs to be replaced on the car...

most of the items damage are acutally aftermarket, the techart rims and JRZ suspension.. any advice would be helpful! thanks guys!!

Jason

pics are on the bottom

Ossining auto body does insane insane work. They are the ones who installed my Techart Kit which was one of the first in the Country. Judging by the way Ron keeps his cars I am sure you cannot go wrong either way.

how do you think ossining will handle the claim with the aftermarket parts on my car? since they are an authorized body shop for allstate??

Get that car here pal, I just spoke with my bodyshop and Allstate and the aftermarket parts are no problem...and you know I can handle the JRZ's
This bodyshop is less than 1 mile from my shop and they are top notch
I had a Techart kit on my yellow turbo and it turned out flawless!!
These guys are my close friends as well so....

Wow, glad you're ok man. I've never seen a wheel break like that before. I bet the freezing conditions had a lot to do with that. Good luck with the repair!
