5 car pile up = slightly wrecked sedan....i hate ricers
yeah thats right ladies and gents. i was involved in a 5 car pile up last night around midnight. a group of about 80-90 cars were going cruising (yeah it was a huge huge meet last night) well someone got cut off then someone slammed on the breakes then bam bam bam 4 cars hit each other and all i saw was my buddy slam into the back of a crx no break lights or anything i slam on the breaks at about 30-35 mph and bump his eg hatch. so shitty, but it can be fixed im pulling some strings at school and getting my old auto body teacher to get his car in. my car on the other hand i think im gonna get it professionally done. i can do it my self but honestly i just dont wanna dick with it.
the damage to my car
what i know for sure as of now.
core support has been pushed back about an inch on one side and an inch on the other
bumper support is most likely screwed
hid's are done for. i had my ballasts mounted behind the support after the impack they wouldnt turn on.
cheap *** altezza grille...free so no lose to me
bumper needs to be repainted
lips needs to be repainted
onto the pics i have so far, im about to take off the front bumper remove my hid stuff and put some stock bulbs in so i can drive at night. ill take more once shes dismantled
doesnt look terrible but nothing lines up at all and all the damage is structural so yeah this sucks.
more pics to come very soon after i get it torn down.

Re: 5 car pile up = slightly wrecked sedan....i hate ricers
Holy **** Jon, that absolutely blows. I'm sure you would have mentioned it already if it was an option, but what about your insurance? You have full coverage on your baby, right? Why not just file a claim and let them pay for it, that way you're just out a deductible?

You could pimp yourself out. Might raise a few bucks. The take home pay is better if you're your own pimp.
