Default Crash my car

Before



After the crash










Car that hit me! Didnt get that much damage compare to my car.




the guy in front of me brake hard so i brake hard too. once i was on full stop the guy at my back rear ended me. so i hit the guy at my front. the guy at the front left the scene (maybe he doesnt have a license or insurance).
my insurance broker said it might not be totalled. i really hope its totalled coz i dont want to drive a "fix" car. anybody wanna recommend me to the best body shop here? thanks!

Hmm.....It may be totaled, the damage is pretty bad on your car. How many miles are on the car?

That's terrible my heart goes out to you... especially because it doesn't sound like you were in any way at fault. Good Luck with everything here on out.

you should have them pay you the cash and then buy the car back from them for cheap and part it out for parts

It hurts man. I'm really sorry cuz it sounds like you put so much time into it and it feels all wasted now. You wont get the same car to go into every morning now but you get the cash to get a new DC5 and think of it as a new project

the body shop guy said the car is not totalled but it will cost $11,000 to get everything fix. the adjuster still needs to see the car this friday or nextweek. i wonder if they expects to spend that much money for that car.
