Got Rear Ended *Pics*
 

On my way to school. Traffic was stopped, so I stopped too. Guy behind me looked at a plane (we were next to Bartow County Airport) and looked back forward and saw me stopped. He didn't have enough time to stop so I got hit.

I went to my local collision place where my cousin's fiance works... It's $2300 in damage. But his insurance has to pay oh well. Guess the Civic will be in the shop for a lil while.

time for CF trunk :)

Sorry to hear that bud. At least you're okay!

Where could I possibly get a CF trunk? The collison place says $310 for a trunk lid. Won't a CF trunk cost a lot more then that?

A lil off topic, but do you know its still possible for someone to know what your license plate number is?....you didnt block it that much.....but anyway...sorry about the damage.....

AQ37343 lol, its easy to see the plate number dude...

$2300 in damage? WTF? Thats about how much I paid for my car!

hey N00b.... same thing happend to a freind of mine, the insurance will pay that amount for a trunk and then they have to pay for the prep work and paint on it...and when added up, that equals the cost of a CF trunk...thats how my friend got one. ;)

are they just gonna fix that trunk and repaint it? or replace the whole thing? if they're replacing the whole thing it should cost just as much as getting a new CF trunk.
if they're only paying you $300 for the trunk, why don't you just pay them around 150~200(max) for a CF trunk????

lol owned, now lets do a background check and knock on his door :lol:

I'm 17 with NO job. Mom would buy me stuff, but she just got a $42,000 car so money is tight (Chrysler 300C Hemi).

If I could find a CF Trunk for around $300-400 I could ask my cousin if they could just buy that or something and put it on instead of buying a new factory trunk.

same shit happened to me today.. the same exactly story as you except i don't think there was any planes... the damage of mine looks the same just that my trunk is fine. is there any special things i can milk out of the insurance company? i think the guy hit my muffler too. =(

Sucks doesn't it. I went to the collision place, where my cousin works. And he is going to fix some small dents/scratches that I've had on my car way before the wreck. Also they are replacing the whole bumper, inside and the cover. New emblems, new trunk. And I'm getting a 4-wheel alignment. My muffler is ok though.

ouch...something like that happend to my vic except the guy wasnt going to fast...he screwed up the bumper so its about 650 in damage

I hope you're gonna make money off this cuz that estimate is way too high. Rear bumper painted should be around 500 and a new trunk should also be around 500 painted and installed... so thats 1000.

Around here when people (smart people) get into accidents they go to a body shop which gives them a rediculous quote, get that money from the insurence, the body shop does a quick repair if its something simple (like your damage) and pays the customer part of the insurence claim money.

Since you have a connection at that body shop I hope you're doing the same thing.... if not you're letting a body shop make a ton of money of you. Go there and tell them you want at least pocket 500 dollars for using them.

^^^ true true
I thought $2300 is way too high for just the trunk/bumper/LABOR
Why don't you just get the Money from the insurance company and fix them ur self?
It should be a piece of cake installing CF trunk/ rear bumper
look for a ssm bumper or other colored rear bumper from this site for cheap (100~150ish?) and get a cf trunk for like $450-500
you'll have bunch extra $$$ left :)

i dunno what part of GA ur from but I got my CF trunk at Nopi in Forest Park for $630

that sucks, try and make some money out of it, like others have said.
