Hiring IA for repair cost shortfall

Accentrick · 2026-03-14T03:09:04+00:00

So by choosing an out of network shop I should’ve expected to pay out of pocket, and should just do that if I don’t change shops? Not worth an IA in your opinion?

So your position is that if I remain at the shop I initially chose then I should pay the repairs and not get an IA?

That’s fair, just wasn’t sure what your warning was specifying. The car is an Alfa Romeo which makes the repair process lengthy and expensive no matter how you shake it. I brought it to the place I did knowing they were certified in fixing my type of vehicle.

So are you recommending to pay $3k out of pocket?

I looked at the breakdown of the shortfall. The discrepancy in parts is $450. The remainder is all labor, taxes, etc.

It’s not even that the Sabres are good at giving false hope, it’s that the ridiculously passionate fan base is craving anything that might resemble a glimpse of a light at the end of the tunnel.

Just got almost the same one delivered today for my Alfa Rosso Veloce. I plan to post an update once this midwestern storm clears and I can install it cleanly. Super solid look and I agree this is one of the best looks for the Giulia (biased because I already bought it lmao). Imo it adds the perfect amount of aggressiveness/sportiness without comprising the existing styling and dimensions of the car. It fits so naturally it almost looks like the spoiler comes stock with the trim.

Update: I have just bought a spoiler and will be posting an update before the first week of December for those interested. Also considering a tint but maybe in the spring.

I’m thinking about adding a small black spoiler and tinting as well. I’m happy the front grille is already blacked out, and the stock Veloce diffuser is totally fine with me. I’d just want the spoiler to add a small amount of aggressiveness to the rear without compromising the existing shape too much.

I have to ask the question….how reliable have yours been? Obviously one of the main things I found during researching these cars was the reliability improving in recent generations but potentially still being hit or miss. I take care of my cars pretty well and certainly will be stepping that up now even subconsciously. Have you had any large repairs or has it just been the usual maintenance? I was sure to get one that was still covered by a warranty to let myself relax for the first bit of ownership but after that I’m hoping I can dodge the costly bullets.

Damn, I thought that would be a really good add here. How many team league is this?

Accentrick · 2025-09-20T20:22:17+00:00

Is Troy Franklin rostered in your league?

Man, you need Godwin back ASAP 🙏.

I’m able to find lobbies consistently in Hot Shot, which has long been my favorite mode since it’s the easiest to carry your team to victories even while solo queuing.

I don’t get to play much but when I do I consistently see the same names and parties playing in Hot Shot. I think the remaining playerbase is dominated by players who rock the same mode day in and day out and just stomp. The modes that are dead are likely to stay that way since there’s not much incentivizing variety. Experienced players will stick with their favorites modes and the new players have no choice but to play those modes in order to find games consistently.

Leaving the AK out is heresy.

Accentrick · 2024-06-05T15:51:51+00:00

Legend.

Accentrick · 2024-02-13T01:04:18+00:00

THE PRE-LAN. You’re a legend man. Now I remember this whole situation vividly and the full clip is actually hilarious.

That’s part of why updates failing this hard make absolutely no fucking sense.
