Default Major damage to jdm front end...not for the faint hearted.

NEW PICS ADDED 9/12, SCROLL DOWN: To make a long story short, I was rear ended when I was at a stop sign , completely stopped behind two vehicles. Some girl who just got her license came plowing into me at about 30mph and I went straight into the vehicle in front of me, which was a dodge van. I don't know if the car will be considered salvaged yet,(due to frame damage) but the insurance adjuster is coming on monday. As you can see, today has been a pretty shitty day.




UPDATE: sep. 12, 2003.
I ordered another front end (this time chrome sir-g headlights)from password jdm and cwest front bumper, side skirts, and rear lip from turboevo. I also ordered a fluidyne radiator and dual flex n lite slim fans from turboevo. My shop is waiting on the cwest parts and the radiator and fans.

pics of the front:

box the front end came in:

more pics to come next week.

Ouch, that hurts... are you going to tow it all the way back to Wally's if it's going to get fixed?

btw, when you were stopped, were you on or off the brakes? I got rear ended by a bigass GMC truck going about the same speed a little while back, and ended up getting sandwiched... had my brakes on, but only a little scratch occurred on my front bumper. What happened to the car in front?

Well in most accident cases, aches and pain don't show up until a few days after. And yes, good luck with all the insurance BS... what company is the girl insured by?

Stupid teenage kids cannot drive! Everytime you see one driving they are more concerned with ******* with the radio or talking to their stupid friends in the backseat instead of stopping at the redlight in front of them. If I offended any teenagers, tough!

Shity break man. I hope you milk this for all its worth.
