GRRRR got into an accident today

Well **** happens, today I was in an accident and did some damage to the car, not enough to write if off I think but enough to really **** me off. I broke the front bumper, front drivers fender, front drivers headlight and that corner of the hood. I was super pissed about it and ended up taking that out on the gym but I am going to be sore tomorrow. I am going to have to wait and see what insurance wants to do this is my 2nd accident in the last 2 mths good luck eh? Anyhow I will keep you guys updated. Long story short I hit black ice going a little to fast and ended up tboning (kinda) a truck, not much damage to his truck thankfully but it sucks the big one because I can guarantee that they are going to be blaming me for it.

Re: GRRRR got into an accident today

a guy in canada who sells front end kits for 330? news to me lol. Not to worried about it at this point, I have to go to the adjuster in a week here and see what they say about it. I unbent the worst of the damage and put the factory headlight back on that side for now, it looks like poo but whatever. Honda metal lol I bend that **** by hand no hammer required. The parts to repair it will probably run me around 150 ish for the fender, bumper and brackets and maybe a hood. The headlight being busted is what gets me the most since you can't just buy 1 black halo projector headlight unless I get lucky and come across one. Might be time for the 99 front end conversion if I can find one in the junkyard here. Gearbox summed it up, once I hit the sheet of ice there was frig all I could do about it, she was sliding and I was along for the ride, I tried gearing down to 1st and everything its just a good thing that I managed to minimize the damage like I did, could have been much worse.
