Cosmos is good, Maranello is alright but you won't see your car for 6 months.

You need to document EVERYTHING. Your gf should be keeping a daily log of how things feel. I used to deal with this stuff every day at one of my past jobs, and I have watched insurance companies (mainly ICBC) screw people big time. If you get asked are you feeling any better, the correct answer is "it still isn't 100%", not yeah it feels better than last time. Insurance companies take the "it feels better than last time" and log it as they are almos tbetter and start cutting funding.

There is all these little in's and out's that insurance companies will try to play with you. If you can remember this one rule when dealing with them you will make the right choices: Insurance companies are in the business of making money. To make money they try and pay out the least amount of money as possible. it doesn't matter if you were at fault or not, theyw ill try and pay out as little as possible. They aren't your friend, they are a business.

Document the hell out of everything, with dates and all. Any issues you start getting with the car take note of. Find a good shop and go from there.

Hope your gf is alright. If you have any more questions post them up.

Yeah we keep a log every day of how her kneck is feeling. My insurance company is also sending her to chiro and physio. So hopefully everything works out in the end.

I might try screamin paint works. Heard good things about them and they can get my car in pretty quick.

Re: Rear Ended :(

SOS is a fantastic shop. They repaired my moms 05 GLI when it was rear ended. Same sort of damage you described to yours. They do a lot of work on German cars. They came recommended to us after a friends BMW 330i was rear ended pretty badly and they fixed that car to a like new condition.

They take that extra time to make sure every detail is complete to your satisfaction. I would recommend them to any VW owner.
