I had a lady pull oout in front of me, stop in my lane, I swerved to miss her, and then she accel right as I was about to get past her, clipped my rear bumper sent me spinning up on a hill. All the body shops said it would be 6k to fix my car right, bc not just the back was damaged the front was too from the curb it hit, as well as two wheels being bent to hell. Needless to say its still messed up and needs paint.

awesome time to state that urethane rocks.
sorry for your loss, thats gonna be a decently pricey repair, the corners of the front have metal that bends ridiculously easy and then will **** up how the body pieces align, mucho labor.

Geico is my car insurance company. Since i am at no-fault for this crash, the woman that hit me, her insurance is accomidating me nicely. Her's is Nationwide insurance. Geico gave me the option of doing the claim through nationwide, or through Geico. I desided to start with Nationwide and see where i could go from there. So currently as of now they are going to send an inspector to my house to look at it on Monday or Tuesday. To accomidate my driving needs, they afforded a rental car, at no cost to me at all. Nationwide is going to pay for the rental. A 2005 Pontiac Grand Prix (sporty edition, i might add). So i thought that was cool.
Well, guys, we shall see what happens on monday or tuesday. And thanks for the support, the non-support, and the crash stories. I feel as though i'm taking this really well, considering that i really liked this car. But i might have to accept the fact that this might result to a "totaled" situation, and i'll accept a big check $$$$ ( i hope)

I was sitting parked at a stoplight, left lane, front of the line. A girl in a hyundai decided that she would go through the left turn lane and cut back across in front of me to run the red light. she came back to the right too soon and ended up getting the front of my drivers door, my drivers side mirror and crumpling the fender from the back. her car caught the gap between my door and fender. I was pretty pissed. she was only 15 and wasn't supposed to be driving after 10pm anyway. it was 12:30am.

[quote name='the_shadow10000' date='Sep 10 2005, 04:39 AM']the one thing that sucks is part of the frame is bent. its mainly at the nose of the car, as you can see in the picture. But none of the damage even touches or goes past the radiator.
