I bet the rear one is slightly bent, that is a pretty hard impact.

That sucks man, hopefully you have no internal injuries although you should get that checked out. I hope you had some kinda insurance especially fully covered.

Bah, if you look at the pic, all that seems to be bent is the UCA. Yes the rear shock "may" be bent, but I highly doubt it.

Body shop will need to cut out that 3/4 panel, and weld in new sheet metal.

Good luck with getting her back on the road.

if u had full coverage on that then this is what id do. use the money that the insurance company gives you to buy like a cheap hatch or something. swap the motor from that integra in it and part the rest of that integra out and make money. thats what i would do, i wouldnt bother tryin to fix that even if its possible.

Insurance company will total that =/ Costs way too much to cut out that panel and weld in new metal and paint it. Friend of mine got hit almost exactly like that but it didn't even damage the LCA as this accident did, was just a good size dent in the quarter panel. Insurance totalled it...

That doesn't look like enough damage to total that car out. That Integra's worth is probably around $7500, that would mean that the damage would need to be about $4500 for the insurance company to total it. Let's say it is, so then they give him the difference of that, which would be $3000, take away the deductible, $2500 is the check he would get for his Integra. Then he would have to buy his car back, at least $800. That leaves him $1700 to buy a hatch...

...do I really need to continue? He would lose his *** if they totaled the Integra.

Anyways, I don't think that it will get that far. If he has insurance coverage for this accident, I think this Integra will be back up in a month at most (depending on body shop's schedule).

I had an accident almost identical to that, only none of my suspension components were affected. Mine came out to around 3300-3500, at one of the most expensive body/paint shops around town. This was on a 97 GSR, and insurance did not total it. So there's hope! Good luck with it.

Hopefully only the control arm is bent. You should check the frame as well. If the frame is damaged, get the ITR wheel-well, rear frame, and rear cross member.

don't you wish it was your front fender/bumper instead???? I always think that "IF" i do get in a car accident, i hope its the front so insurance could pay for my 98+ conversion or my jdm front end

but as for your situation... and what the others have said already OUCH!
