Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
If that happened to my 4 door, I would fix it only because I've had it for so long and it was my first car. I'm pretty much in love. /emo
It depends on you man. Idk how much you like your car or how much money you've put into it. Just make a decision you won't regret too much. Good luck!

Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
I'd scrap it, way too much money and downtime without a car. A good shell with engine transfer may be <$1500. When i got rear ended in my teg, body shop without goign through insurance charged $550 for pulling the rear body panel, and installing a used bumper and rear skirt. For the skirt and bumper, it was $200 at a good deal

Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
tis the season for accidents. hell, i've been in 2 accidents since monday. (some guy backed into my car and the other one is still under investigation but will most likely end up as not being my fault)

Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
I would definitely get a new car just because of all the problems that you may face down the road due to hidden damage from the collision.. like everyone else said.. if there isnt an attachment to the body then just grab the motor and swap it else where. Good to hear that no one got hurt

Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
yea as far as the accident goes no one was around me so i was lucky there just walked away with a broken car and still made it to work on time..i know it'll cost me some serious money to fix it so i was leaning towards a eg or a dc2 and swap everything out...

Re: ice+integra+cement median=bad
anything is repairable... for your case it's gonna be expensive like everyone else says... what kind of coverage do you have as far as insurance? if only liability then I would start looking for a shell to swap your motor into...
