Tick the written estimate. Shoot the finished work. A hold here is play money unless this bay says Stripe test.
No surety bond, no escrow, no shop payout. Missing STRIPE_SECRET_KEY → DEMO stamp. sk_test_ → PaymentIntent, capture_method=manual, not captured. sk_live_ is refused.

Ledger · this bay
Zero users and zero reviews is the honest number. There is no review widget to grow into. A counsel hologram would be a lie — hire outside review. Nobody here signed plate-to-VIN, DPPA, live charges, or a courtroom venue. A checkbox is not a lawyer.

Written estimate checklist
A bonded-looking estimate is paper you can read. We do not bond the shop. We do not pay them.

Next frame: VIN + RO header. 17 characters readable. Shop name and RO number in the same folder. Photos compress on this phone. They stay here — we do not send them to a shop.

Wall · consented names only
Reply on /contact and tick consent to be named. We print only jsonl rows with that box on. We will not invent a shop, an owner, or a quote. Reviews stay 0 until a real review exists — these notes are not stars.
Named quotes · 0
Counsel · hire outside review
Hire outside counsel for DPPA, plate ToS, live charges, and a courtroom venue. A checkbox on /contact is not a lawyer. That is not “approved by counsel.” There is no hologram and no counsel-signed badge.

RepairPal would have routed this. YourMechanic would have sent a person. You walked in with a script.
How a number is judged
Quote line
A flagged line is judged against a typical independent band for the ZIP you typed, plus a local regex price book. That is not Motor, Mitchell, or ALLDATA hours.
Recalls
SaferCar campaigns are year / make / model — the nameplate. They are not a VIN open/closed file. SaferCar’s VIN check is a link-out, not our API.
Specs
Catalog row first. Heuristic last. Heuristic specs can be wrong. The door jamb and the cap still win.
Rooftops
OpenStreetMap Nominatim plus Overpass. Not a certified network. We do not book, rate, or take a cut.
Confidence · source lanes
Every number on this bay wears one of these. Heuristic is allowed. Heuristic labeled catalog is a lie.
NHTSA
VIN / year-make-model from vPIC. Recalls are SaferCar nameplate, not VIN closeout.
CATALOG
Year / make / model row in our fluids book. Still confirm the cap.
HEURISTIC
No catalog row. Heuristic specs can be wrong. Door jamb wins.
REGEX
Quote line vs a local price book, then a typical independent ZIP band. Not Motor.
