And everything seemed to be going so well....., Sadness Options

So about 3 months ago my car was finally finished being painted after a much hated waiting period of indecisiveness and searching for booths to paint in. So here's my car after being painted (Note I haven't put the spoiler or side skirts on)




So this Sunday I got into a car accident, totally my fault (Although I blame a Cop... I'll explain). So I was on my way home from grabbing food when a motorcycle cop starred me down from the opposite lane and busted a sick U-Turn to pull up behind me. I had pulled up to a left hand turn lane when I kept starring at the cop in my rear view mirror when I happened to notice the light turn green, so not thinking I took the turn when a guy in a old Toyota pick up hit me....again my fault . well to had insult to injury the other driver didn't have a drivers license...in fact all he had was an ID from Mexico and the Insurance he gave me was canceled since September of last year.... so naturally the cop took his car away and gave me all his info and let me go.... so now I feel like I ruined his life along with my car






on the good side nothing mechanical was damaged so the car runs fine but still its hideous damage.... but my quarter panel is totally shot to S*&t and im contemplating if it's even worth fixing my Celica...

That sucks... right after getting painted too. The timing couldn't be any worse. Is there any frame damage? I'd say it's worth fixing.

Thanks, there doesnt seem to be any frame damage, its pretty much all sheet metal but Im still unsure about the cost of fixing it..

lol thanks and yeah everytime I see a cop pull behind me I feel like he's running my plates, especially since I have a red car lol

if you have insurance, dont worry about the cops. the only thing i worry are the tints on my cars. they'll mark certain cars to go after.

yeah thats true I remember with my old CRX it had pitch black tints and a fart can and I'd get pulled over for the stupidest things, I guess its just a fear carried over from when I owned that car, but i'm always insured just wish I had opted for that uninsured motorist coverage now.....

ha ha lol cops are douches sometimes, lately i just give them the finger when they look at me. reason being they pull me over they have no probable cause to pull me over, and i video tape everything... because i just like being a douche as well

congradulations, you took an illegal alien off the streets for a day. he should have been arrested and deported. it effing BS that they are taking over and destroying this state. on enough of my political rant.

[RavenAegis45]

Ok so if I decide to repair the car just by looking at the damage does it look possible to repair the quarter panel or would the only way to fix it be to replace the quarter panel?

[Smaay]

usually when its quarter panels, they cut them off and replace them
