They said that they footed the bill for the difference in oem vs third party, not the insurance company.

I found a white "R HONDA Dot" decal built into the bottom side of the front fender (near license plate ) that was replaced. It had a color matched sticker on it, but it looks like a sliver is missing. Is this normal for honda refurbished parts? Go back to body shop for new colored sticker?

One more thing, is it possible to post pics without uploading somewhere else?

Thanks!

You might be able to post pics to "Albums" and link or imbed them in posts using the [img] tags (I've never tried it).

Not sure what you're referring to with the stickers/decals. Body parts from the factory typically have a white tag with a number on it (VIN? PN?) that isn't on replacement or repaired parts.

Thanks Steve!

The whole color matched sticker fell off during driving.

I am not liking it one bit, even though it is on the underside. Is it normal to just cover up something like that and hope it stays on/someone doesn't notice??

Sorry, I'm not following you. I don't know what a color matched sticker is. If it's on part of the bumper cover not normally visible I wouldn't worry about it.
