Thanks Welsh, I don't want anything to further fuck up my possiblity of getting my money. Whenever that is.
I just got a text from the bodyshop (yeah, dude started texting me as he knows I work evenings) that the tailgate is getting fixed. My conversation obviously went well, it went from no, to maybe, to no, to "I believe you 100%, and I am going to look into the matter. 4 agents so far, and the last one made moves in less than 24hours, this new lady isn't fucking around. She seems adamant on getting my shit fixed, and getting their money.
