Has anyone had to do a "diminished value claim" on their car before? If so, would you mind sharing the details (online or privately)?
My otherwise mint 1984 Laser XE was rear ended, and while it is quite minor the rear bumper will either need replaced (unlikely) or repaired and painted (likely). The car was accident free until today when it got bumped in a parking lot, and now it will carry and accident on its record.
Any suggestions would be appreciated for those who have gone through the process...I am about to call their insurance company which I dread.
The car's value before the wreck is debatable given its age; however, with 37k original miles, otherwise mint condition, I know what I was expecting to get when I sold it this summer. I know that I won't get that value given the accident report.
