Yea... I felt sorry for the kid, he's only 16, working at Sonic's, trying to save up for his own car. But he's the one that ran into me afterall.
I had told him that it's up to him if he wants to claim it on insurance or pay for it out of pocket. Well, the first estimate was $947 (at my friend's dad shop) and $1270 at a national chain.
Well, I told him that, and he said he would get back to me. And today, he's like "yea, well I talked it over with my dad and he knows some people with body shops and wanted to pay for it out of pocket."
I want it done right, the first time, and don't want a half-ass job. Pretty much, I am going to tell them unless they want to pay for the $950 job, plus pay for my rental car in the mean time, they will have to claim it. Otherwise, I'm the one getting screwed when he ran into my parked car.

Edit: Sorry if I'm rambling, I'm tired...
