the bumper frame is touching the rear wheel.

Insureance is fully covering

Body shop said the frame is fine, the hatch took most of the force. Its going to take 28 days to fix!!:confused:

Glad to hear you're okay Pax. You're definatly one of the more beneficial members on the board. Hope everything works out for ya bud!

Pax - any chance of benefiting from the accident via aftermarket (read: cooler yet less expensive than OEM) parts? Carbon hatch, better wing, etc.?

Any frame/suspension damage? Looks like you were hit by an SUV from the impact height...

Glad you're alright... treat yourself to a good blonde masseuse! :)

Jpax

Yea, They replaced the suspension parts they needed to, I got new rear struts, and a front left strut, they also replaced the rear driverside control arm. They replaced one rim, and repaired one rim, and i got 2 NEW SO-3s on, they were damaged in the slide and when hitting the curb sideways. They have removed the hatch and wing. looks like its still about anthor 2 weeks out maybe more. :o

I stoped by and snaped a couple of pics. I'll take better ones later.

This is what they replaced

hey PAX, hang in there. when i wrecked my si it took 3 months to fix and it was as good as new when I got it back. seems that these cars are built very well. basically my whole front end was replaced and it tracked as good as the day i bought it.
