the truck scratch rant

so i get out of work a few weeks ago in a hurry because i had to go somewhere and i start the truck and look out my windsheild and theres a note on it. i assumed its one of my friends writing a stupid note for fun so i go out and read it and its by some woman who hit my truck so now im like wtf! i go check out the damage and its a foot long black streak, a scuff on my tow hook and cracked ezpass(the one that mounts to the liscence plate). im like great and drive off to where i gotta go. after i finished up and got home i tried buffing it out with compound and i got most of it out except for about 3" of scattered spots. so i call the woman and she was nice about it and says get a quote and give me a call. so a week or so goes by and i finally go to the body shop and get the estimate. the guy says he could try and buff it out but thinks its gunna need a repaint for about $350 so i call the woman back and suddenly she wasnt so sweet. i tell her the quote and shes like thats way too high its only a scratch and she wants her husband to see the damage. so more time goes by and i got a second opinion from another shop who wants $500 to do it. so today the husband comes by looks at it and tries to downplay it and say its only a scratch. now i dont know about you guys but i really do enjoy my vehicles and try to take the best care i can on them so any scratch nick or dent really pisses me off. so he leaves and says i dont know what im gunna do & he will call me in two days. so here i am now waiting for this idiot to " see what he's going to do". (Oh and on a side note my truck is a solar yellow dodge ram 1500 which you can see from a mile away!!!) ill keep you guys posted on how this plays out.
