wreck >:l - ouch Figured it was going to happen someday, and shucks...it did...my first wreck too 
Anyways, I was stopped in my car (02 lx coupe) and my friend was with me in my car. We stopped at the light and I think three cars were ahead of me. Finally the light turned green, so the 02 Explorer in front of me started to go then I proceeded to press on my gas pedal.
Then, last thing I saw, the Explorer just slammed on the brakes and I didn't even have time to hit my brakes. It happened so quickly that before I realized I was about to slam into them.. I therefore had no time to really react and hit my brakes.
But of courseeee... my car gets f*cked up and NOT EVEN a scratch on the Explorer because I slid basically underneath their back bumper. I guess I was following too close, even though we weren't even going that fast. So "failure to stop" was put on the police report 
uhhh..
OKAYYYY now... if any of you have the time... look at the wreck pictures in my gallery. Although my car just got put in the shop on Wednesday, the insurance man hasnt come out yet for them to start. Anybody know maybe an estimate of how much it would be? I'm not too informed on how much the car parts would cost. I'll defintely need a new hood. My grill is messed up, the left light is busted... but my front bumper is sort of loose on the sides. Any thoughts guys? Thanks

Rep Power: 374 there is prolly some frame damage since the hood is moved up like that itll prolly run you a few thousand to get that fixed. Sorry to hear about your wreak but at least you alive
