How much would this cost to fix? I havent had any time to get an estimate. There is no frame damage.







Here's a list of what needs replacement:

- passenger side fender
- passenger side jdm one-piece headlight
- hood
- bumper
- radiator support
- misc stuff (bumper lenses, vents, etc.)\


Also, can anyone point me to a CHEAP body shop in the San Fernando Valley? I dont really care about quality since my only objective is to get rid of this thing. T.I.A.

ouch. $700? just a guess.

 

damn your in luck b/c i just took a friends car in to my uncles bodyshop...same car and sme exact damage...her total was roughly 1800 HTH!

 

samething happen to my dc2, mine was 500buck only, new headlights, paint and fixed bumper. but it was a hook up tho.

 

jeez i had to double check just to make sure the picture wasnt brought up from an old post... that blows ***.

 

my bro had similar damage to his 5th gen accrd and he paid about $950; bumper, front grill, hood, bumper reinforment, radiator support, paint, one headlights, misc. lenses

 

oh! your car was so sweet...thats a sad sight

 

$1000+ at professional body shop
$300-500 if u go DIY with taiwanese parts and if u didnt bend your frame.

 

Theres a lot more damage parts then what you listed.... from the pics it looks like it will cost 1200 easy...

Edit: how did you damage it.. did you look at the crash zones to see if theres any kind of frame damage?

 

1 million dollars.

 

When did this happen? Love the lude....

 

you are seriously lookin at about $2000 easy if you are havin it done professionally. it doesnt look like they did a very good job prepping the hood for paint the last time it was painted. you can see how the paint just flaked off where the bondo is.

I do believe it was last month or so when a 350z was doing doughnuts in the street out of no where while making a uturn in a no uturn zone and he slid a good number of feet and hit him.. correct me if I'm wrong.. I have all your pics of your car next to that big truck and **** my all time favorite 4th gen prelude too..

Correct. Thanks man.

Well that guy ended up not having liability and I <u>only[/b] had liability so I gotta fork out the money to fix my own car. I dont know if I should go through the hassle of taking him to small claims court. What should I do? Should I..

..take him to small claims court?
..sell the car as is?
..part the car out?
..fix it and sell it for more?

 

Take his *** to court if you ask me. Don't respend your precious money rebuilding that car for something some crackhead did. I love that car so I wouldn't be able to do any of the other 3 choices. Good luck.

 

wait a minute, ur sayin that a guy that owns a 350Z doesnt have sufficient insurance? explain to me why u are in this situation....this should be an open and shut case, you hit an expensive 35,000 dollar car while the driver of that car was doing something stupid and its totally his fault, ur car should get taken care of pronto.

So what do you suggest?

I dont know what it's called but he only had the insurance that covers his own car if he were to get in an accident. He said he was gonna get full coverage the day after the accident but it was too late.

 

Make him pay for that ****. Court couldn't hurt could it? I'd be ******' pissed if I had to pay for that myself. Judge Judy y0!
