Rep Power: 0 My Civic Accident! (Pics, Not 56K friendly!)
(Hey guys! Continue posting on this link:
https://www.civicforums.com/forums/4...-friendly.html)
Well it happened on the March 21st... Basically what happened was there was the Blue Mazda truck in front of me, and he was stopping for someone that was making a right turn into the apartments. (BTW, this was on the right lane) The Mazda was was fully stopped, and I came up behind him. I fully stopped. Seconds after, there was Black Civic coming up behind me. The driver of the Black Civic, she did a lane change into the left lane, but at the same time gets rear-ended by a women in a Red Subaru. After, the Black Civic rear-ends me, and I rear-ended the Mazda Truck. So I basically got sandwiched! After I rear-ended the Truck, the Black Civic ended up beside me! I'm pretty sure that's what happened... Either that, or the Black Civic rear-ended me first and the Red Subaru rear-ended the Black Civic. I actually don't know exactly.
Well here's the result: (Good thing I had my camera phone!)
I was able to get some pics of my car at the collision shop... So sad to see it!:

I need to wait until later to find out the estimate in damage.
From what I can tell, the damage to my front includes:
Cracked front Bumper
Black Grill
Driver's side headlight with HID bulb
Carbon Fiber Hood with Hood Hinges
Radiator Support got bent
Radiator got pushed back, but doesn't look cracked and leaking...
Driver's Side Fender
The damage to the rear from what I can tell:
Crushed Trunk Door
Crushed Trunk and the Hinge got pushed back
Cracked Rear Bumper
Crushed Quarter Panel
Damage Left Tailight
I'm not sure if the frames bent...
What do you guys think? Is it going to be a write off? I'm actually wanting it to be seeing how bad it is... Looks so bad that I don't want it bad anymore!

bad things happen to good people...

my civic went through a similar ordeal. i had to replace the whole front end. bumper,radiator core support, re-bar, ac condensor, radiator, headlights, ac lines, radiator hoses, and what killed me was the frame and body pull. you also have rear end damage. That is gonna be a killer. i spent 1300 out of pocket on my front end without paint. good luck to you my friend.

That sucks man.
I got hit by a pick up truck to my passenger side, back corner. kinda like how you got hit are near your gas tank. My damage was 4000 just on one corner( new bumper,side and few other things) so it might be write off.

Thanks for the support guys!
BTW, I started the same forum in a different section, and it looks like it picked up faster... So I guess continue posting on this link:
