Unhappy My Girlfriend put my car in the Ditch

So here is the deal. My girlfriend and I stayed over night at the local ski hill. Today she had to go into town to work and I wanted to go snowboarding so I let her take my car to work. It was snowing and she put it into the ditch. She busted the front bumper and a stump scraped down one side of the car.

I am going to get another bumper but I was wondering if you guys think that fixing the rocker panels would cost some serious cash? If it would cost a lot do you think side skirts would cover it for now?

Thanks

OEM bumpers are on Ebay NEW all the time for under 100 bucks, usually like 75 plus shipping. Just need to get it painted. As for the rocker pannel, I'm sure you can buy them pretty cheap. Or just get a body kit.. Good luck

you can cover the damage with a aftermarket side shirt for sure. The rocker panel for our car is weld on so you dont want to replace it unless the damage is really bad.

That sucks

But you could get the rockers fixed it shouldn't be too much and get your girl to buy you a body kit to fix the rest. Looks like you need new Rim's too

Where do you usually go in Freddy to get repairs done?

your rocker panel is fine. general body work will fix it. as long as it didnt bend the seam that is created there. sorry about your luck.

^^ I could calim it but it would cost me $5100 in the long run. The deductable and insurance increase over the next 5 years (the amount of time needed for my insurance to return to the rate it is currently at)

The rocker panels will have to be repaired, the side skirts wont cover it since thats the line for the door. Youll have to have them fixed. Not too much damage tho you prolly could just have them painted when getting side skirts installed.
