Rep Power: 0 Guess I get too join the accident club
Well, the whole rear bumper on my car is gone... and my front bumper is kinda messed up.
Anyways,
I was just out too get some breakfest and too drop my car off too have the SPC camber kit installed and too then get an alignment.
After I was done eating, I made a right out of the parking lot, then continued down the road too make another right.
I was sitting at the light waiting too make another right (get it?), and I can see this guy in my rear view mirror coming down the road really really fast. Anways, the light turns green so I go, next thing I feel is a big push and all of a sudden im sliding into on coming traffic.
The ****ing guy was most likley trying too take the turn at a high speed.. and of course there was a bank/spot of snow on the side (****ing idiot), anyways
rear bumper is kinda hangin and has a nice dent The guy front bumper is way off, and I saw a nice crack in his headlight. We didnt go through insurance because ive had a problem like this before (but too my left fender/bumper) and my parents told me too not go through that **** plus, he didnt seem too give a **** about his **** car.
Anyways, I also just dropped the car off too get the dumb camber kit installed and too have it Re-Aligned. I made this appointment yesterday, and they are always busy, so, without a rear, im still gettin it done
My front bumper is messed up a little cause I lowered my car lower than before and hit a nice pothole Its not that noticeable though.
Camber kit + alignment = $150-200 ( i dont know the price yet )
Rear bumper + paint = dont know
Body shop isnt picking up the phone

Rep Power: 0 damn, when I replaced my back bumper and had it painted it was 500 bux to look like new. If I'm not at fault and my baby gets hurt, I'm going through insurance companies. For that accident where my bumper was cracked I got a grand from their insurance company. Unless my car was a beatup old POS, I wouldn't think twice about going through the insurance company if I wasn't at fault.
