hey man, i know this prolly isnt the time to ask, but you still have the ls6 intake for sale? As far as your dilemma goes, its a pretty big deal, id bring it to a lawyer and see what they think

if you file with your insurance they should go after the tow company, the tow company should have insurance as well, that would take care of it. i had mine picked up after it was stolen, saw plastic from the grill on the ground in front of it at the impound yard, they claimed they diddnt do it, and my battery was stolen, they claimed someone climbed an smooth iron 8 ft. fence with a 40 lb. battery. just be curtiuos to the owner and you will have better luck i got pissed off and yelled at the guy so i got jacked good luck

You may be able to bring up pictures of the exhaust from w/e GMMG dealer you got it from and then match it w/ the pictures of it all bent up on your car. Also if you paid for it with credit card they should have it on file somewhere, but who knows how that will pan out. Best bet would be to bring pictures.
