its BACK!
so in late June I got into an accident and my car almost didn't make it out. After never ending delays at work, we finally got it fixed. I started working at a bodyshop this year and my boss was able to convince insurance to not total it out. I just got the car back two weeks ago and just wanted to share. On to the pics!:
The car before the accident:
The damage
Drivers fender, door, front control arm, front lip(bumper was okay):
Pass. qtr panel, trunk lid, rear bumper, bumper support, trunk area:
And how it is today:
I know a lot of people think the red rims are played out but I like em and had to do it, haha. As you can see the pass side is still white, I plan on going all white again. I damaged one 5zigen in the accident so I'm rolling on HXs until I get it replaced. One thing I need opinions on are the spoilers. I like both looks. Should I keep it wingless or put them back on? Comments/Criticism welcome just keep unnecessary flames to a minumum. Thanks for looking.

yeah, I've been trying to get another 5zigen but haven't had the time. Rest assured, they will be back on eventually.

insurance gave me 5500 since I had a 1000 dollar deductible but that didn't even cover everything and the estimate was based on used junkyard parts. So in actuality the rebuild cost a significant amount more than what insurance provided. my boss saved my *** basically cuz he didn't charge me the deductible at all and we even repainted my front bumper.
