[Winkychevelle]

Hi all, I don't believe I've ever posted on this forum to date. Mostly I just read and gather info from this site. Anyway I haven't seen this subject come to light yet and I apologize if this is duplicating a topic.

Here recently my girlfriend happened to hit a small animal, presumably a hog, in texas. In doing this she happened to damage the def injector, def feed line, and injector wiring harness.

I didn't really think the damage would surpass 500 bucks but, the local chevy dealership says otherwise. The total damage not including the new front bumper was estimated to be 1700-1800bucks.

Now I know I can get the parts online for around 400 but I work 13 twelve hour days before having one day off so doing the work is out of the question.

I've chalked it up to an insurance claim and should have my car back by the end of the week.

I'm curious have any one of you guys had similar experiences?

I haven't been able to personally look at the quote breakdown. I know alot is labor being a wiring harness and a 20ft hose that has to be routed. When I finally get the receipt I'll break it down further.

It's was 1780 for just the def parts the bumper is being left out due to previous damage which it doesn't look damaged because of the hog anyway so I don't have any body damage to be repaired just mechanical.
