I had the bumper replaced by Honda of hollywood through the other partys insurance, however it took almost 2months to have done because they were giving me the run around. I had the bumper replaced 9/11/00 and richard in the hollywood Honda autobody shop tells me that there should be an opening where the bumper and body of the car meet. I told him when I purchased the car it was like that the two met closely and now he is trying to convince me that its was never like that and to look at all the other Honda they are not close together. At this point 2 months of being dumped on, the farmers insurance adjuster from the guilty party made a deal with richard from my initial precise estimate of $895 to Honda's $413 and the bumper is worse off. I need a lawyer can someone help me out?
