Well here's my now beater that I've driven and loved since brand new, with 162,000 on it now. Back in April some asshole in front of me driving a new Silverado decided he was going to pull off to the right, into a freeway ramp area, then proceeded to pull a U-turn in front of me without stopping or even looking. It was raining, I would have been fine because he was a little ways ahead of me when he did this, but once he got into the oncoming lane he spun out and came back across my lane. Apparently I wasn't able to stop in time, T-boned him, bounced back to my right straight into a guard rail. Luckily I wasn't moving too fast by the time I hit him.

BTW, I didn't have collision, took it off in '06 because the car was paid for. So that's why it looks like it does now.

So far I have replaced the left control arm, knuckle, bearing, balljoint, headlight, and threw in an AEM short ram just to try to make it feel better, since this was the first money I had to put into it since I bought it, besides oil changes. I also have a hood, and both fenders, but I need to get someone to replace my radiator core support before I can put them on, because the underbody on the left side is bent out of shape.

But hey, the other guy had his truck that mommy and daddy bought for him fixed in less than a week, I got a whole $500 from his ins. co.. And now I see he's gotten some new 20"s on there too, but he said he couldn't afford to help me out when I offered to not file a mini-tort in exchange for some monetary help. Gotta love Michigan's no-fault insurance laws.

Hi, I am new here. Actually this is my first post. I had this accident recently in my 02' Civic EX I bought only 6 months ago, and it set off a buying frenzy. I am in the process of painting now with new coats of R513 with metal flake (3 oz metal flake added to 1 gallon of paint) and just a litlle pearl added to the clear coat.
I got a cf hood and trunk lid, and bullet fiberglass fenders, as well as 17" wheels and tires, and an Injen cold air intake. I also bought a body kit, which is probably considered too flashy, or ricey as some may call it, but it should look ok when completed. I hope it doesnt turn out to look dumb, if so, I can always change it later. After all of the cosmetics are completed, I will get another engine in the shop to build, and eventually replace the stock one. I should have focused on the engine build first, but the accident set this whole thing off.
Oh yea.....ignore the crappy muffler tip, it was on the car when I bought it. Got plans for that too, but I dont know which exhaust system to get yet, I want it quiet, or very mild.
I also plan on changing my interior from beige to black and grey.
I find this project consumes alot of cash, so it will be a slow, but enjoyable build. Btw, this is a great forum with alot of information and tips to learn from. Thanks for the input.
