Well I think you will be better off since it will be under his insurance and not yours. Some companies will try and screw you over and not cover aftermarket stuff. But since it was clearly his fault then you should be in a little better shape to try and recoup everything to get your car back.
It would have been even worse if that grill was discontinued or something like that and not even available anymore...Best of luck to you though-

Sorry to hear about that. I lived in the Detroit area (Utica; bought the car at Buff Whelan) for a year, and wrecked the front end in the wintertime on Hwy 59 near Rochester Hills. Rear end broke loose on black ice, and went head-on into the cement divider.

Wow, M59 and Utica area is right by my house. 
So my Uncle called, he owns the collision shop that we had it towed to. He said no worries that he'll hook me up good, all he wants in return is for people to know that it was Troy Collision that fixed it. :thumbsup: But yeah, it sucks but at the same time it's nice because his insurance will be paying for everything and I don't have to pay a dime.
Oh, and DEFINITELY will not be down-grading my car's appearance to the catfish style. Had a bunch of people telling me to do it, and no way no how would I down-grade to the 98+ appearance
No offense to anyone with 98+ but if I had a 98+ Camaro, the first mod I'd do is throw on the better looking 93-97 frontend.

I only think the 93-97 front end looks good with a front lip, other wise it looks eck...

Yeah, now she'll be on the road faster than before. I couldn't pay for the $900-$1200 that it would've cost to get her fixed. Now that I got hit and his insurance is paying for it, yep gonna get 'er done.
