Ok so I wrecked my civic... into the back of a mazda which only had a few scratches on it btw. Anyways my car decided to just crumble and I know for sure that I am never buying an 01-05 civic ever again. Anyways my car was a total loss at 25 mph.

I hit a 06 mazda 6. My front bumper actually had to be pulled off of the mazdas exhaust. I think my car being lowered saved thier car and messed mine up bad, cause my car basically went under theirs.

damn, it does look like it hit high on your car. what structural parts are bent?? if it's not bad, this could be a good time to do an 04/05 front end conversion.

it was stopped-stopping.. My car is a total loss, and since I have no where to put it I am not gonna be able to buy it back and fix it. And the damage was just over 10,000 dollars. I know for sure that the right lower control arm is broken, but I dont think there is any frame damage to it.

Damn bro.. but by the way, i'm sure it had more then a couple scratches on it. Most likely it'll need about 3k of work done to it- for the floor pan and bumper. I only know this kuz my car happen to be the mazda during last winter. File your accident report? I didnt.. still thinking it might come back to bite me in the end. At least your allright. At least were both all right. Was the guy pissed at you?

Who ever is quoting you 10k for an estimate is an idiot. Cause thats a new hood, fenders, radiator support, LCA, Halfshaft probably, radiator, headlights, paint, labor probably more like 5k
