so I was leaving the mall today after my interview at GNC, when this guy in a damn MINIVAN decided that he was gonna pull out right in front of me. Heres the end result.
    the people that saw it happen said my car came up off the ground. The guys minivan(oh yeah did i mention that he had no insurance) had my white paint all over his hood. and to boot I dont even know if I got the job. This post has been edited by massbrandon: Jul 13, 2006 - 3:51 PM |

I dont know yet. I have to wait and see what the insurance company says in the morning. My cars only worth 6000. I dont know how much the damage is so I am gonna have to wait it out. If its totaled then I might try to part it out. Im not too sure yet. |

if they say its totalled and you want to fix it yourself hit me up ill come out and help you anytime you want
in a way its good we live in mass when its the other guys fault, stuff is pretty strict here and since he had no insurance he is most likely going to get into quite a mess from this, did the cops come to check out the scene? Edit: which mall were you at lol maybe ill know it This post has been edited by jcbass7: Jun 20, 2006 - 5:01 PM |

glad to hear your ok man. A car can be replaced, your physical well-being cant. But as bad as it looks...to me, it doesnt really look that bad.
i can help you out with a new door, and a quarter panel if a quarter panel off of a convertible would work on a hatch. --------------------  Cuz Thats How Us Country Boyz Roll Growing up racing motocross, i learned one thing..."Always wear clean underwear, you never know when the Paramedics are gonna have to cut your pants off of you" |

doesn't look too bad. mostly just some body damage. make him buy new projectors, including the clear highs. and you're door looks pretty bad so you should upgrade those too. maybe some lambo conversions. maybe not. i hope you don't end up getting rid of the car.

whoa! another 99!! The door and fender shouldnt be hard to fix.. the quarter panel seems to be the only hard part to fix. This also happened to my cousin.. his TRD Solara was rear ended by a Cox truck.. the driver was not insured and Cox wont do anything about it!
