MINI out of BODYSHOP- fresh paint and hood

Last October some dunce in an infinity SUV backed up into my mini in a the parking lot of a subway. He hit it full force DESTROYING my right front light and crumpling my hood. Yes it was a sad day... luckily he paid me full in cash along with bought me a new hood and light from the local MINI center. I squeezed about 800 out of the guy to pay me to get the hood repainted not including parts.I pushed it off for months but I got the whole car repainted for 1000 even, the guy did it in only 12 days. he charged me about 30 bucks to take the door handles off (which he said he would never do again for anyone else after he saw how much of a pain in the *** it was). He did a really good job, striped the entire car, took off mirror, lights, all the plastic, drip rails... everything. I still have to go back in 2 weeks to get it buffed and put graphics on but just wanted to show every one and ask what do you guys think???
