Glad to hear you are ok. Your car looks like it may be totaled... but I've been wrong before.

That paint doesn't match anyways so atleast you'll get a fresh coat of paint or a new ride. That's what happened to me when I wrecked mine... fresh respray across the whole car. GL and keep us up to date.

to you not being dead.

Nah... It can be fixed easily... Your frame looks straight to me. Just the core support and hood. Engine valve cover maybe...

Make sure insurance dosn't screw you. If they total it out, buy it back and put a new front end on it! At least your alive though.

good to hear you are ok!

whatever you do, buy it back and then part it out - you'll come out better that way.

I think you guys are reffering to the one I picked up, the one wrecked on the way to expo. After dealing with that mess, I can say this about your car. It looks as if whatever you hit was higher than your car and made a mess of things higher than the frame rails. The worst part about a fix for that car is going to be the inner fender area. If it got into the shock tower I would suggest a front half from another car. I'm sure Rene could tell you about that one. But I can say this too, it doesn't look like the impact was low enough to damage your frame rails. That's pretty important too.

FWIW here's a pic of mine right after the wreck on the way to Expo. I don't think it's as bad as yours though.



You can check out the rest of the pics of under hood shots here.

If you have any questions, LMK.

Edit: Damn, sorry for the huge pic. I can post just a link if you'd like.
