someone backed into me..., i was...uh eh... not in the best mood...? Options

[Griff]

so im leaving school, someone was like 'dude kelly hit your car'
so i go to look at it sure enough...she hit it, and left.
you could say...i was pissed, i know this girl so i go over to her house...blah blah, hopefully i can get it sorted that they pay for ALL damages and i can...not ruin the relationship..(that prolly aint gunna happen, why? well cause its probbally gunna be a pretty penny for a very 'minor' thing in there eyes)

here are pics:







the damage isnt very much, but if someone ever sees waht time and effort i spend on the little things on my car, they know this is going to kill me to look at, even if i clean it up.

it looks at least a new tail light (the taillight is also pushed out somewhat on the outside making it stick out), maybe upgrade to some JDM's or afterburners...

and one thing i dont really know what or how big it is, the middle piece,(that the lisence plate is on) its pushed in, i need to find a part number for it, i have no clue what $$ thats going to cost. and my wing (even though hard to see) has a few good chunks missing, and is now loose...along with the paint scratches with the whole deal, they wont understand when this turns out to be expensive, for a little eye sore.

by the way, does anyone know what part exactly in the middle (where the lisence plate is) cost $ or the #?

and heck, if anyone has some psychology tips to make this go smoother...i wouldent mind that.

Tell them you had jdm tails to begin with

Sorry about the accident though and I hope it can all get sorted out.

doesn't look too bad. looks like a good opportunity to upgrade tails.

[azian_advanced]

the center rear license plate panel costs from $200... part number: 75082-20280-XX. C0 is the color code for black.

thanks for the part number and code.


ive thought about somehow upgrading tails, well see, they will probbally only replace one though...so i dunno if i could.

[hitcachi]

if you need factory tails i cant sell for really cheap. Let me know. Thanks.

Pay her back with 2X the damage. That will teach her not to hit and run.

[Griff]

im thinking about taking my wing off, anyone got any wingless celica pics?

[devilsden97]

if ur looking for a new tail light, thres on in the b/s forum

tell them to give you $50 for the tail light and 300 for the body work to fix panel. put the $50 towards JDM tails and get the minor body work done and take the spoiler off and have them seal the holes while theyre at it. It would look sweet afterwards. Then you can sell the spoiler on here. I had minor body work done like that for about 300. Can never tell it got backed into. It was a very small hit like yours.

I just so happen to have that center license plate peice your talking about needing...in the factory black color your looking for. How ironic. Ill sell it to you for 85 dollars shipped.

[joehernandez]

you should be grateful to her, time to new updates

[Griff]

haha, well, i may take these two offers these guys have put out, with the estimate at 943$ i can save by buying off of these guys, and who knows. im still trying to decide.
