Unhappy my 2nd accident

so yea... i was on my way to get all you can eat sushi with a friend when i decided to rear end someone....

i was in downtown riverside at a light looking at all the cool shops when i realized the light turned green... it's funny how i didn't see the explorer in front of me.... BAM!!

the front of my car is seriously gone... it's all bent up... luckily the damage was center on the upper portion of the front end so the only things that were damaged were the hood, fenders, bumper, a/c condensor (new) , radiator, and i think i knocked a motor mount loose... but i can't see all the damage because i can't get the friggin' hood open....
yea...

the turbo is okay for those that wanna know... the motor runs and there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it....

i'm talking to my friends dad whose a lawyer about all the legal business just in case the lady decides to sue me...

looks like i'm screwed... lease:

please pray for me...

Sorry to hear man, but you should have been looking. If the lady was aware, she could have moved up a little too. I almost got rear ended when this guy doesn't see me stopped 200ft up and finally slams his brakes at the last minute. I floored it up about 10 ft and avoided a bad accident. Good luck getting everything fixed, though.

yo, ironic, i did the same exact thing in my car, and it was an explorer too, only difference was, all the damage to my car was a bent licence plate, and the bumper on the explorer got bent and fell off. go figure.

damn that sucks

I here you Urethane, or ABE plastic is the way to go

If you have a friend that works at a body shop or a shop that will work with you yo can get the stuff you want covered under the insurance.

metal m3 fenders, cf hood etc. it cost about the same as new OEM.
