25k, that's such a bummer man. I hate how careless/irresponsible some people are. I got my front bumper scraped by some uninsured a-hole a few weeks ago. It was nothing compared to you what happened to you but I can empathize.

Karma will pay this low-life back, I can assure you.
Good luck!

***
The only item that I see with any mention of used or recycled parts is line 135 REMOVE/REPLACE - BUMPER FLEX MATERIALS - Quality Recycled Part.
The rest are oem parts with oem part numbers. Im going to call DC tomorrow to confirm this.
Completion date is 07/11/17, almost 2 more months without my car....

Yea definitely. I leased this car without even once sitting in it to see how it felt or driving it. This time, (If they total my car) I think I will test drive the 8spd to see how it compares to the MT. It obviously is faster and gets higher MPG than the MT, but is it as fun![Icon Question](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_question.gif)

On a side note, I saw a red Alfa 4C yesterday and damn it looked good! Its so impractical and just a fun weekend car, but, if those lease well, I might have to drive one....

It also said no LKQ parts which I interpreted to mean no recycled parts. LKQ is a major player in the recycled parts biz. But I agree, a Jag approved shop with only Jag parts.

I noted the same point about the end of the estimate. YES, they list P/Ns, however that's so they know how to price each part. I believe their qualifier applies to everything since that is now SOP at insurance companies. It's all about profit now, not taking care of you unfortunately.
I just got off the phone with the shop. They confirmed that ALL parts being replaced are with brand new OEM parts. No recycled, no lkq, no used parts of any kind. The last paragraph is a blanket CYA statement by the shop which can apply in certain situations but does not in my case. The only items which are not OEM is the tire (which they confirmed will be a new ContiSportC2) and the sealant for the liftgate glass as well as the bumper caulking, sanding additive, paint flex additive. Since those items are not manufactured by JLR they have to be aftermarket.
Only 55 days left now.......

If I were you, I'd have them strike the line from the estimate, sign it and then give it to you. This then makes it a contact with you. I have learned to trust no one's word about squat. Inspect their invoices when they come in - in other words - not "trust, but verify" - instead "don't trust - AND verify"! Good luck.

I received that email, but still, I will keep a close eye on things to make sure all is as promised!

I actually asked them to send me what they told me in an email stating that no used/recycled or aftermarket parts will be used (with the exception of what I mentioned earlier).

Yessir! I called the dealer and they recommended this shop (DC Autocraft), I also checked Jaguar Authorized Aluminum Repair Network Overview | Jaguar USA and confirmed that they are listed as a certified Jag repair shop.
