I t-boned an f150 in my little coupe today (i hate slippery streets) and instead of him stopping he decided to can it after i hit him and ran the front bumper and ****. I also hit him at like 5-10 mph. I need to know how to post pics so i can show you how bad it is. I need to know if its worth the money to fix. i will be doing all the work but paint the car. I know for sure i need a hood, front bumper cover, hood hinges, both fenders, radiator support assembly, inner fender skirts, fender brackets, upper bumper stiffener, and a power steering pump(pulley bent). the hood shifted to the passenger side about an inch or so, along with the front of the fenders and the bumper cover.

All i did to the f150 is dent the bottom of the box.

 

Slippery streets? Is it snowin over there? None over here yet

To post pics, you need an image host, http://www.photobucket.com or http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com

 

ok thanks, its not snowing, its just a little icy/wet.

Pics will be up by tomorrow.

I estimated it out to be about $2000 with out paint.

 

$2000 going 5-10 mph!?!?!

 

the truck ran over the front of my car thats what caused all the dammage, it ran over the bumper.

 

was it like a monster truck or something? or raised?

 

nope, stock height, but my car is lowered 3 inches. thats also with all brand new parts basically replacing the whole front end, at the most parts will be about 2000, prolly end up being more like 1500. thats also with a CF hood.

 

 

at 2 grand, you may as well buy a whole new front clip from one of those jdm suppliers. go rhd, get a better engine, etc.

 

but with a new front clip i have to have a body shop install it. all my damage occured to bolt on peices.

im just fixing it and selling it to a friend than im getting a 93 HB with a b16, turbo, hondata s200, the b16 is fully built with about 3000 miles on it.

also, my car is the perfect doner for a jdm itr front end conversion.

riiiiiight....


moron

 

i think im screwed. the aprons are bent and all that stupid crap. this sucks so much. i basically need a new front clip. everything forward of the strut towers is bent to the passenger side a little less than an inch.

 

any one know where i can get a complete USDM or JDM front clip including all the body panels? i would perfer a USDM clip.

 

here are the pics of my car. I am getting a rolling chasis that has a dented door, rear 1/4, and needs the mount for the rear control arm to be bent back into place.

 

that doesnt look too bad.

btw: your car is not dropped 3".

 

oh, but it is droped 3 inches, tires constantly rub, cant go over any speed bumps without scraping, there wasnt a gap in between the fenders and tires until this happened which the people also thaught that my car became lowwer after the acident and said it wasnt drivable. but i had to tell them it was lowered.

oh and the ground clearence is about 3-4 inches

 

Doesn't look like 2 grand in damages at all. I cant even see any creases in either fender. Id sad rad support, fenders, bumper lights, radiator...

the hood doesn't even look that bad..

Ricky

 

it really doesnt look that bad

 

looks like really easy fix

 

it would be an easy fix if the inner fenders/aprons werent bent over an inch starting about 6 inches in front of the strut towers.

here are some pics of a shell i found that needs some work(door, rear 1/4, motor, and the passenger rear control arm mount needs to get rebent. it comes with every thing but the rims and CF hood.

 

He wants a show car so "It doesnt look that bad" does not cut it. He need it to be perfect. Dont buy that shell.

 

why would anybody want to purchase that big piece of poo...fix your car punk..

I bet you really care too seeing as how you invested so much into his car.

Looking at the car, it doesn't look as if you really have a lot of work to get done on this. The corner light, the hood, and bumper, not sure how much damange you have on the inside that others like myself may not be able to see, but it really doesn't seem like you have a lot to fix.

 

Get some engine bay pics!
