Well the best thing you could do financially is buy your friends Bullitts. But the best looking thing to do would be buy Black Chrome FR500's or the Saleens, IMO.

Then lower it.

I just dont care for the Saleens being in Black, I think they look the best in Chrome.

I think the FR500's would be good!

If i may say so you should flat black the bullits as it looks great with red. Im thinking of flat blacking my bullits right now.

That car with the black saleens looks awesome. But I think with your stripes some polished bullits would look pretty sweet.

You need to file it under Uninsured motorist. Should be like a $200 deductible and won't affect your insurance rates...

PS: Flat black Saleens.

If the work has already been done, you're prob. S.O.L. If your insurance Agent didn't advise you to file a police report and claim it as a "hit and run" ie: Uninsured Motorist then I would start looking for a new agent.
