frown.gif well this was my friend that was suppose to go to the met but didnt. not sure of the whole story but supposedly he didnt stop at a stop sign and rammed into her at "high speed" but to me it doesnt seem like it and she wasnt a very talented driver to be honest so i think it wasnt entirely the guys fault. she didnt really take care of the celi much either (example:really worn out clutch,water in high beam, brake pads with no meat left on it till i changed it for her yesterday then she wrecks it today, and most of all. DOESNT SHIFT CORRECTLY I MEAN WHO STARTS FROM STOPS AND GOES INTO 5TH GEAR mad.gif )

pssshh
i bet you could just get away with a fender
the bumper doesnt even look that bad at all, can prolly just mold it back into place


did the axels get screwed up front the hit, or where they already messed up? cause i hit a tree head on with my celica, and my axel was fine...

*edit*
starts in 5th gear??!?!! no wonder that clutch is worn, haha

Haha, I wouldn't be suprised if she fooled a few of them. But that's too bad of damage, new fender, check ur control arm and brake on that side and get urself a new rim if it's bent or w/e (doesn't seem so) and you should be good. Might need to fix the alignment though but hey, you should totally take it off her hands and make a project car out of your car or that one, atleast you'll have another car to use just incase you're a DD.

this is one those tuff cases to tell how much damage is done. It looks like the suspension took most of the damage. If the a-arm is bent it can be an easy fix. But if the points where the a-arm meets the frame is bent it can be a nightmare to be repair. Take it to a shop and get an estimate, ask them specifically about the suspension.
