I know exactly when the damage happened... The ironic part is where it happened.
The damage I'm dealing with happened at the Anderson Hummer Happening last June. It was my first time offroading the truck, we were in a stream, and I drive off a rock. The sudden drop-off jammed the UCP into the exhaust and opened the exhaust flange.
There are numerous other nits and picks under there that the shop guys are oo-ing and ahhh-ing about. Theres a bunch of stuff I could probably get away with not replacing... but once you start taking things apart to get in there... it doesn't really make lot of sense to strap mangled parts back in place.
Mike is working on it. He seems to understand what I want done. The biggest surprice really is that I will have to replace the Y-pipe and since the CAT's are built in... it pretty expensive. Almost $500 for the part....
Most of the rest isn't that bad. I think the cross members are a couple hundred bucks each... new skid plate... UCP... I might have them leave off the skid plate and UPC since I was going to run the truck up to HGW... I'll be calling up there in a few minutes anyway... 
Fun Fun Fun...

What is a GMID#? A secret password for a secret discount?

Sorry John,
Ken's price is clearly lower.
Be there in an hour Ken. Be ready.
Glad I got this in writing.

I can't remember where exactly I got the address from. It was either here, edmunds.com, or on a Corvette forum. Doing a google search on 'get GMID number" brought his address up as the first hit.
I did not know this guy at all when I asked for a GMID #, and he sent a valid one within a few hours. Saved me big bucks.
I get the feeling that this "person" is a special account in some marketing department created just to issue these numbers. Otherwise "he" would have been shut down long, long ago.
