Sooner you settle the faster you get another one

Good luck. Hope you come up with the parts and can get the insurance company to pony up some more $$$.

They will probably only pay for the parts (no labor) at a depreciated rate. No way will they consider taxes, doc fees, etc from the original purchase.
This is the key. Each time I put on an aftermarket part, I tell my insurance agent & he includes it as part of the agreed value of the vehicle. Yea, it makes the premium go up a few dollars each time, but its worth it. I have my headers, HRE wheels & even my Halltech intake listed as of now.

Omar, I hope you will start this practice now that you've had a taste of insurance company policies. Good luck with the claim & live & learn my Corvette brother.
