    Peace Officer Discount \u2014 Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n\n
    \n
    \n Who qualifies for the Rippers Peace Officer Discount?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    Active and retired sworn peace officers as defined under California Penal Code \u00a7 830 qualify. This includes CHP, sheriff's deputies, municipal police, district attorney investigators, CDCR correctional officers, parole agents, and federal law enforcement. A valid agency-issued ID is required at intake.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n How much can I save with the discount?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    The discount reduces our standard $120\/hour labor rate to $95\/hour \u2014 a savings of $25 per labor hour, or approximately 21% off labor. On a typical multi-day collision repair, that adds up quickly. Total savings depend on the hours of labor your repair requires.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n Does the discount apply to insurance-paid claims?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    No. The Peace Officer Discount is available on customer-pay repairs only<\/strong>. California law (Penal Code \u00a7 551(b)) restricts how repair shops can structure pricing on insurance-paid work, so this discount cannot be applied when an insurance company is paying the bill. If you're paying out of pocket \u2014 including for work below your deductible \u2014 the discount applies.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n Are retired peace officers eligible?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    Yes. Retired sworn peace officers in good standing qualify for the discount. Bring a valid retirement credential, CCW endorsement issued under your sworn capacity, or an equivalent agency-issued ID.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n Does the discount cover parts and paint?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    The discount applies to labor only. Parts, paint, materials, and sublet work are billed at standard pricing. Your written estimate will itemize labor and non-labor charges separately so you can see exactly where the discount is applied.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n Can I combine this with other Rippers offers?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    The Peace Officer Discount cannot be combined with other promotional offers, coupons, or seasonal bundles. You'll always get the best applicable rate \u2014 let our team know which offers you're aware of when we write your estimate.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n

    \n Do I need to bring my ID every visit?<\/summary>\n
    \n

    Yes, please bring a valid agency-issued ID each time you come in for a new estimate. We keep a record on file once you're a customer, but verification at the time of estimate is part of how we keep the program consistent and compliant.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/details>\n\n
