Default (Pics Up)Well I Guess **** Happened

Before you start yelling screaming and bitching this was straight up my fault and nothing can change anything.

Today around 1115PST Time i was going down the road. Posted speed limit 40MPH me going 40. Saw Green light was in 4th brother couldnt turn on radio so i turned my head for 1 second came back and saw someone entering the intersection. I wondered wtf was he doing then i saw i had a red light i slammed on my brake ans tried to downshift to 2nd to slow down faster didnt work for some reason it seemed like the brakes didnt even work. I jsut replaced them all brand new pads and rotors bleed properly. I hit a S10 onthe side i hit was a small dent but my whole front end was moved 1 1/2 inches to passenger side. 2 estimates both came to 4739 and 5181 highest one go figure was honda.

Call me stupid i know i was i even broke 400 dollar glasses cause i was pissed what i did to my car screw the other ones. So i have decided to go with a JDM Front end since i can get it for about the same price painted and installed the proper way through my mechanic. With HID fog/low/highs.

PS Will post pictures later im on slow *** connection and cant get anything fast.

I swear bad lucks on my side

2006 Get hit by a car
Late 2006 get car stolen
2007 get blown up
early 2007 get in car wreck

anyone seeing where this is going. maybe i should fix it and take a bus where i need to go.

That always sucks. Atleast you're ok. Just don't get a jdm front end conversion now, kind of tired of seeing those.

That damage doesn't look like five grand to me. Is is just bolt on damage (fenders, hood, lights, bumper cover, etc.)? If so you should be able to get away much cheaper... Anyway, it sucks to have it happen. Good luck on the fix

Get me pics under the hood. Specifically Rad support and crash bar and frame rails.

I'll take a look at it for ya, and see what I think. I fixed mine for around 2k when I went through this... It's not to bad though.

LKM if you have any questions.

Bad things happen man, it was an honest mistake, don't let it eat you up.

Just get the JDM front end on her, and you'll feel all better.
