and I come back to this 5 mins later...



now my bumpers fucked and i gotta get a new hood.

 

ouch, howd you manage that one?

 

I'm guessing someone with a hitch backed into him. That sucks. Hope everything works out for you.

I really don't think you need a new hood. I think you're making an excuse for a carbon fiber one.

You're going to like the Honda Tuning though, DIY Throttle Bodies for a D-Series.

 

That sucks man. Somebody did the same to my front bumper, but they just scraped the paint off of it.

 

Target has insurance for that reason. Same as Walmart etc. March ur *** back in the store and ask to speak to the manager then tell him your story and approximate time, they can check security cameras etc and somtimes get plate#'s from who ever did it. But they are liable since its private property ( Target's Parking lot)

 

go back to target and ask them if they have camera out there!!

 

Your covered no matter where you are. Its thier parking lot, no matter if your in the front or rear, unless the rear of the building says somthing along the lines of access to emplyees or close to that, because then you would be trespassing.

 

that's ******* bullshit. people have no ******* respect. It makes me angry to see **** like that, I can't imagine how you feel. I hate always having to worry about my car being parked in parking lots because I know people will pull **** like this, back into it and not leave a note. Some jackass sat on my motorcycle when I was at the mall and DROPPED it. They picked it up and walked away like nothing happened, and when I came out there were scratches all over the right side. NO RESPECT!! It got stolen anyway, so I guess I don't have to worry about that anymore. ********, sorry about your luck.

 

haha wtf $1000???

get a certifit bumper ($50 at most?) and 96-98 headlights sell for dirt cheap.. and you can align the hood, even though it doesn't look much outta place anyway.

just get someone to do the paint.. shouldn't be more than $200 or so. You could get it down to $300 max.

 

same thing with my bumper........oh yeah wait, only i was driving and drove it up under a Ford Escape after someone cut me off

 

well insurance is covering it so i cant install it myself.

 

I had the same problem... but with a new corrolla.

 

It's still going to cost you more money to pay the deductible then a DIY repair job probably.

 

your probably right but my dad is taking care of this. thanks for that though i didn't even think of it. maybe we can just do that.

the norm on a used bumper seems like what?? $100?.......and whats you deductable, $250, $500......or even $1k......yup its a DIY and yup sucks to lose hte $

 

somebody should die for that...

 

Looks like someone smeared your liscence plate pretty bad too.

Sorry, just trying to cheer you up. Sue Target, it was on there property, and you have a reasonable expectation to return to a non smashed car.

Yea, it's only gonna cost us $300 but the total cost ends up being 1400... My dad doesn't want to deal with target or anything.

Is it a magazine or what? Haven't heard of it yet, and they have articles on making throttle bodies? wtfc

 

well hope insurance doesn't go up to high, and hope it works out for you. but i would still go and talk to target and try to get them to pay for it.

 

WTF!

 

Damn that hella sucks ! soRRy dude !

 

Sounds like time to do a 99-00 conversion! bump for a better outcome!

 

Paprika!!! what the hell!!! you are a member of Honda-tech and you have never heard of Honda Tuning!!! Some things never cease to amaze me...
Go pick up a copy it'll be a worthwhile investment. And the article on building individual throttle bodies was sweet. I wish i had the cash to do that.
Hope everything gets worked out... I personally think you should get Target involved it happened on their property and if your insurance covers it your cost per year will go up. Overall having Target pay will save you a lot of money in the end.
