The side of your car looks wrinkled like an old ziplock bag. Damn. i bet the guy who hit you was drunk. Good luck fixing your ride. I am sure it will look like new when they are all done. They are so amazing at fixing cars these days. Not enough damage for a total i bet. My insurance company said that the damage has to equal 75% of the value of the car for it to be a total. Of course their idea of the value of the car is a lot higher than what you could actually sell the car for.

well the car is an 02 with 74k miles on it. KBB at most like $10-11k so i dont know what theyre going to do with it. personally i dont want the car back after someone messed it up so bad.

sorry to see what happened to your car bro.
i would say it would cost 3.5-4k for repairs at a decent/good shop. thats about how much they quoted me when somebody hit my passenger door and rear quarter panel. what body shop did you take your car to?

so just talked to the claims guy and its going to cost ~$4300 to fix but the insurance wont cover the whole thing and is only willing to pay $3300 !@#$ gieco in their stupid asses. what the hell is the point of insurance if im still going to have to pay for shit that happened to my car, that i didnt even do! aoj'lkjdsa'khj'ksljadsa

on a somewhat related note, anyone want to buy a JDM kitted EP3 with slight cosmetic damage. :mangel:

well they figured everything out with insurance so i just have to pay the deducible which is like $500. but im probably going to end up selling the car after they fix it.

soon to have a forsale thread with almost all the stuff off my car minus the bodykit and tein suspension
