Rate ACTION HONDA! Need help ASAP by end of 05/28/03

I got in to an accident and my whole front end is ****ed. On the verge of a write off.

I went to ACTION HONDA b/c it was recommended by the tow guy.

When i called my insurance they said that ACTION HONDA doesnt lifetime warranty the work/parts they do/use.

The insurance company said we should go through one of their independant body shops and they will lifetime warranty their stuff.

WHAT shoud i do?

1. GO to action honda (certified dealership/bodyshop that'll use OEM parts) w/ limited warranty

2. Go to an independant bodyshop where my insurance company liftime warranties ( but may not get new OEM parts)

3. JUST write the car off and get a new toy (not of my choosing)?

NEED any input guys, on my sit. and on ACTION HONDA.

THANKS

Oh man never go to an independent recommended bodyshop from the insurance, most of them are crooks, like CarStar, many aftermarket stuff yet charged OE prices, terrible job.

smokedcivic has a little shameless behaviour in the past

yeah i say go to Action Honda even if they don't have the lifetime warranty, your still getting your service and parts done by Honda. Real parts and hopefully new(usually) but thats what i think

If you don't mind me asking Max, what happened?

Go to Formula Honda if your getting it done by a dealership. Action Honda sucks!

Make sure your not my cousins, because they signed the papers before rolling out, and there were suspension problems, and the rear glass is AFTERMARKET hence no Honda Temperlite stamp. Or better yet, goto a private bodyshop, and mod your car with the cash the adjuster gives.
