So about three weeks ago I got hit while i was not moving at a stop sign. I took it in two supposidly reputable shops, got an estimate; told the kid. the kid / his parents didnt want to file a claim b/c his rates were already hella high, and i thought i'd be nice and not fiel (it wasnt my fault at all bc i wasnt moving), and he gave me a check for the amount of the estimates. I ordered new bumper and headlights.
so I removed all the pieces tonight, and was starting to put all the new ones on. I get the left headlight on, try to put the right headlight on, but it wont fit, I fist thougth it was a bad light, then i took a closer look and my fucking frame is bent and the only reason the other headlight was still in the correct position was becuase it was all cracked to hell on the bottom. but both the shops that did the estimate didn't even notice the headlight / frame deal, so when he paid me I didnt take that in to accountnow... becuase I settled with him already, and he's not an insurance company he doesnt have to pay me anymore $$$.
Do i have any recourse on this, or do I just get majorly fucked and have to eat the cost of getting my frame fixed etc..?
:-( thanks...
