If any of you don't know. I don't drive a rotary powered car, but I am a big fan of this website and plan on buying an FD next year. This is a little off topic, but somewhat relevant considering how pissed I am.
I was driving home the other night.. Crusin' in the right lane.. Adjusted the volume on my stereo, and some fag came right into my lane, no signal or anything... Crushing the front end of my 94 stang.. Pulled into a parking lot (saw a cop on the other side of the parking lot earlier in the day) and he was like "it was your fault".. I was like "dude, you came into my lane, no signal" and he started bitchin.. So i pulled out my phone to call the cops, and he was like "nooo noo... don't call the cops.. how much do you want" .. i told him to give me a grand and we'll call it even.. I said follow me to the bank.. Meanwhile, i didn't know what the damage total was, and if he even had insurance. So he followed me, and I pulled around right to where the cop was earlier, and sure enough the cop was still there. The cop straightens things out.. no ticket for either of us.. I just wanted the cop to make sure his insurance and stuff was in check so I wouldn't get screwed.. Anyways, not tryin to whine, but you all know what its like to have somethin shitty happen to the one of the things you care about.. damn.. maybe an FD might be comin sooner.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png anyways, the stang is down for a while |

u mean something like this happening.... yeah dude.. mines not quite as bad.. but its just overall sucks, cuz then you gotta drive it around damaged, or suck up not havin a car for a while... |
Damn that sucks. I have an 86 GT Conv. I had a turning light one night a while back, when this prick in an XR4Ti turns right on red and jumps on into the left lane(where I am supposed to be). He clips my right fender and buckles my hood. Mine has the four headlight cluster, so all that stuff is cracked and broken. Dude keeps on rollin! I caught up with him at the next light and jumped out and snatched him out of the car. He gets all nervous and starts shaking and stuff. I didn't want to kick his ass, I just wondered if he noticed he cracked-up my ****. A cop sees us out in the road and comes over and gets dude to give it all up. I'm still waiting for a check from his insurance company.
|
yeah.. this is great now.. now i gotta deal with the god damn insurance companys.... who knows .. maybe i can take the check and get a little more outta it then i should if i get a small shop to do the work cheaper .... any suggestions ? the hoods clipped, the fender is completely done.. bumper .. done... headlight and marker lamp... done... the only cool thing i could think of getting is like a cool hood... booh. not on a 6 cylinder stang... or keep the money and put it down on an FD !!
|
dude buy an FD or an rx8 and come hang out with us already!
|
off the topic but if......
1st gen are fb's 2nd gen are fc 3rd gen are fd what is the rx-8 |
fe
|
It cant be FE, what would the new rx-7 be then??
|
well, it is FE. it's in the VIN
|
i dunno what the new rx7 will be.....if it has a FF in it, then you guessed it...but who knows
Fx doesnt HAVE to mean its rx7, its just the chassis code....early rx7s were SA |
dude buy an FD or an rx8 and come hang out with us already! ha ha.. yeah man. I just don't know if i can afford to jump into a 300+ month car payment. I think im gonna get the 7, cuz the 8 needs turbo's. I got a job this year for Elkton Parks and Rec making 10 bucks an hour just playin kickball with 7th and 8th graders.. how much better does it get? only prob is that its only 10 hours a week. BTW, will find out this week when the car goes in the shop. Prolly thurs, or fri. Wraith is comin up Friday, so i'll probably call you. |

Here's a suggestion. Just put on a used fender, hood, nose, and lights. Go to the junk yard and find a car with a good front end and the same paint color(shouldn't be to hard, mustangs are easy to find) and buy them. Then just go home and slap them on your car. You'll probably save a few hundred in parts and all the money for paint and labor. Then you can put the saved money towards a 7 or an 8.

ne one know if it would be cheaper finding the parts online or at a junkyard ?
hey FreestyleFC, you know anything about taking apart and putting domestics back together.. hehe |
$1800 dollars in damage.. just for a ****** fender, bumper, minor hood repair, and headlight... sounds kinda high.. wahhada you think?
|
Body shops rape you nowadays. Highway robbery. Makes me want to build a damn paint booth in the backyard.
|
im thinkin about sayin **** it and just drive it fucked up.. try to find a couple used parts online, and keepin the 1800 as a dp for somethin else
