They sand the body panels down and repaint them so that the paint on the new body parts will blend in with the old ones. I heard from a couple shops that it's the right way to do on a metallic painted car (mine's designo Mocha Black).

Glad you are OK KEV, on the bright side you will get some NEW parts on your car , and it will look great when you get it back. Glad the insurance co is not playing games.Looks like 10-12k damage?

So sorry to hear what happen. I am glad that everyone is doing good. I've been there a couple of times and it's not fun specially the next day. JJ

You're pretty accurate on the cost of the damage. The initial appraisal came out to around 8K, but with the aftermarket parts that were damaged as well as some other not-so-apparent damage, the total comes out to around 11k for both the front and back.
