SO I pay $82 a month for the house to save $30 a month on cars...hmmm...
My math sucks hehehe
State Farm is the cheapest and they treat you good but I am still trying to get the taste of that raise out of my *** from last year

I don't pay all that much right now just about $100 per month. I have a clean record and good credit (thanks to buying the Trans Am). But I also have bare minimum plus a hundred dollar deductible comprehensive (because it IS a convertible).
If not I would turn it in and take the loan they offer

Not wanting to dig too deep here I would just file the claim and get it fixed. That way, since it already has crept up from the $1300 already spent you are covered. Also since you did not damage anyone's property but your own your insurance should not go up. No ticket, no others involved, clean record, no problem.
Now for all the guys getting ready to jump my *** on this lets just say you pay $100 a month. Lets say your insurance goes to $150 a month. That will take you 70 months to pay it back. A whole lot can change for you in 70 months like buy and pay off a new car. The $3500 out of pocket up front over worrying about you insurance going up is not good financial sense unless we don't have the whole story. Plus your car is fixed NOW instead of when you can afford to.
