Well I managed to hit a pole while parking at the airport and taking a call at the same time (not smart). Broke the headlight and bent the front right fender. Will post pictures shortly. Took it to Maserati & Ferrari Collision Center and they told me $10,000 in damage.

Took it to an auto guy I know that does great work on high-end exotics and he told me $2,500. Couldn't even believe the collision center thought I would fall for that. Not even worth turning into insurance to risk any rate change.

It's in with a good friend of mine who has worked on all my cars in the past. $2300 grand total to do what Maserati told me was $10,000 because it's "such a special car and should be worked on by the right people." ALL cars are paint and metal, give me a break.
