A little update on Abmerop18's car from the accident
As some of you may remember, on March 1 Abmerop18 had a pretty bad accident in which some guy hit him at 40 mph on the freeway when it was snowing really bad. The other guy is completely at fault and his insurance is covering all of it. Originally it was thought that the car would be totaled, but it is not, so he is doing his best to make the best out of the situation.
Here are the pics of the accident:
As of right now, 3 weeks later, they have all the parts ordered and began cutting out the body panels to weld new ones it. Needless to say, the car looks naked in its current state.
Here is what it looks like as of yesterday:
Abmerop18 using this accident to upgrade his car as well
Insurance bought him a CF trunk because the stock one was completely damaged and it cost just as much as a new OEM one plus paint. It is the Vis CF trunk. Insurance is also getting him the 04 civic tails. He also got a very nice radar from insurance since the Cobra one broke in the accident. They got him the Escort Passport 7500S Radar detector.
Here is a quick pic of the CF trunk:
The latest word is that it will be finished in hopefully 1.5-2.5 weeks.
Well, just wanted to give you guys an update. Enjoy.

Rep Power: 277 man i don't think i'd want the car after so much damage. i'd fix it then sell it. just my opinion. BTW didn't someone Abmerop18 knew make an 04-05 grill? did that turn out? he just got banned before the production was finished.
