Rear-ended =/ (PICS)

So.. I get rear-ended by another civic (92-95) while on my way to get my license (I just realized I had lost it).

Rear bumper is totally finished and my left tail-light is crooked.
I'll post up pics tomorrow...


I went straight to the scrap yard...

got an 03 rear bumper with the OEM lip for 150$ CAD =D =D

well.. let's hope my bodyshop guy can make everything look like new for under 350...

The whiplash was horrible right after the accident (I really thought my airbags were gonna pop on me).

The guy that rear-ended me was going easily at 90km/h in a 50 zone. I was sooo pissed... when I saw he couldn't slow down.. I floored the car.. redlining first and second practically to speed up.. but yeah.. BOOOOOM


I'm going outside to take pictures now...

wash it to see if any more damage appears if you have the bumper and can get a good place to install it and paint it to match and fix or replace the taillight probably it will all be arround 500 - 600

I've been rearended 4/5 times in my Civic, seems like these cars just ask for it.

Congratulations on saving a bit of cash on the fix, sorry to hear about your accident.

350 can buy a new bumper installed so i can see 350 not being too much for that. all he needs is a new bumper and maybe some of the trunk to be bent back to shape. doesnt look too bad but still sucks alot!

ehh, I don't like how the trunk fits like that, it could be just the tail, however, i would guess that there is some frame damage.

I lost it cuz I put it back in my pocket instead of my wallet after I got carded. (yeah.. I'm 22 but look 16)

Finally.. fix cost was 400$ (150$ for bumper/lip and 250$ for bodywork/paint)

no frame damage, just new bumper/paint and tailight readjusted.
I'll take pix of the car tomorrow....
