Thumbs up

so i was sitting in traffic in melborn fl and some dumb girl decides she dosent want to stop, so in short terms she hits the car behind me and then i get smashed into the car in front of me. but the reason im posting is im pretty sure the insurance company will total my car because its got a low blue book. alls thats wrong is both bumpers are damaged and cracked both tail lights are chiped, the licsence plate holder is broke and the hood buckeled up about 3/4 of an inch, aslo it moved my exhaust. im pissed because i was planning on selling the car later this year and its probly still going to get sold but my friend said to post to ask to sell it the way it is or fix it then sell it. its a 1990 RX-7 GXL with 171,000 miles, straight pipe exhaust to a monza catback, tein he coil overs, all emissions removed, rev type 11 gold rims, alpine cd player and infinity kappa 3 way 6 1/2 speakers in the rear, rear camber links from awr and new stainless oil cooler lines, drive shaft and tranny mounts. im just wondering if its worth fixing or just selling as is for like 2500-2000$ im not sure, imput would be nice

thanks

tommy

Take the money & get a nice body kit.



With a DIY install & some forum & e-bay parts, you should have enough left for a paint job.

parts are worth **** unless theyre sold as.... parts.



once on a car their value deteriorates rapidly, and it generally barely helps the value of a vehicle, if it doesnt hurt the value completely.
