FWIW, if you report an accident and a police report is filed, even if you don't file an insurance claim, it still shows up on carfax. Found that out the hard way this past weekend......

Thats not what I heard. I was told by a bodyshop the insurance company once a claim is made reports / sells that information to Carfax. They randomly get that information from the insurance firm. My wife's previous car had 2 accidents, only one showed on the Carfax. The same bodyshop was used for both incidents.

To OP, you finished car looks amazing, well done.
