MD, You're breaking me up (I looked at Geico's estimate, and they're paying $22/hr for paint labor. Who the hell is painting for $22 an hour? Chimps with Sharpies?)
Maybe the lizard/Gecko will be doing the work.....

jeremym,
Not at all...you were correct and I was simply embarrassed to have confused the two companies. It pizzes me off, as I made a 30+ yr career out of remembering
a lot of 'stuff'; now, I find that ability to be eroding. Right on, man!

I see. Thanks for the clarification. I had thought my comment came off rude after I saw your reply, but I didn't believe it was rude. So thus, I had to point the finger at you.

..back to your regularly scheduled thread. Cravin?

Hindsight is always 20/20, but I always walk around the car before leaving the lot. I also park at the same garage in NYC everytime and they take good care of me.

Sorry about your situation Cravin, people just suck.

Believe you me, lesson learned. I have purchased an LED flashlight for my car and now plan to have it handy for nighttime walk arounds if the lighting is poor.

Having to turn your car over to others in NYC is an almost unavoidable situation, so now I will just not "trust" as easily. Expensive lesson, but lesson learned none the less.

Got a call from the Geico adjuster today that they have issued a check for another $1,000 for parts and labor from damage found inside the door once they took the shell off. Total to date is around $6,500.
