Default Ouch!!!!!

dont you hate it when people are stupid? i was at a stop sign, i waited till it was my turn and then i go . i'm halfway across the intersection when this lady decides its her turn to go and starts driving into the intersection. i slammed on my brakes to try to stop but she hit mehard in my front right corner. she ended up ushing the front end of my car enough that i was at like a 45 degree angel to where i had been pointed. we pull off and go through the whole police report process and turns out she doesn't even have a drivers license. now my front umper is thrashed. like 4 mounting points are just torn through. both fenders are paushed over almost an inch. the passenger side fender is underneath my hood and by the door is sticking out too far so the mirror hits it, and the drivers side has a big gap. its getting an estimate done as soon as the shop can get it in. i'll have pics up tomarrow. with the fenders and everything moved that much but thw hood stayed strigh is it possible that the frame rails were damaged?

Sorry to hear about your car. I hope it isn't too expensive to repair it. Since the person didn't have a driver's license, I assume they didn't have insurance either?

Sounds pretty fucked up... when the gaps in other panels change their is usually frame damage... Just get it fixed right and you'll be fine. Maybe get some clear corners or something out of it...
Good luck

i dont know about you guys, but if there is even a REMOTE POSSIBILITY that someone might come to a stop NEAR the same time as me, i always take an extra long roll so that they will know its their turn.

At least it's insured and will be fixed. If anyone without insurance ever hit me and I found out about it before the police got there, they might be cleaning a blood puddle up when they did.....

ok i finally decided to pop my hood and it open and closes ok. but i noticed my maf was not hooked nto my arbox anymore and after looking i realized my airbox is about an inch over towards to drivers side. look at the core support and the box hasn't moved. turns out my whole core support and every has been shifted about an inch towards the drivers side. how likely is it that they will total it when it goes in the shop wednesday??? how much is that going t ocost to get fixed if they don't total it?

>>>>>>>>>>>

Amen to that!!!
That's a good policy for the Dumba$$es that don't know how a 4-way stop works, Geez, it's pretty sad when you have to "outdrive" the idiots in advance LOL!

You should have punched the gas and put her stupid a$$ in the hospital

You should see some of the idiots we have here driving in Texas on the Hwy.
With their slow turd cars but hey, THEY ARE IN A HURRY, right, that's why they bought such a fast turd car. CHEEZUS!

and the next dumb F!CK that tries to run me off the Hwy again at 80 MPH , I'm just gonna say, screw the paint! I'm putting that dumba$$ in the DITCH!
People that are always in such a damn hurry, drive the F!CKING slowest cars , CHEEZUS! ( scratching head ???)
Sorry about the rant lol.
I guess you guys can tell I was ran of the road the other day and I was in the fast lane! lol!
I just love it when people see two inches of daylight and think they can just squeeze their car in there, what the hell it'll fit right? (putting my life in danger at this point)
After I got back into the fast lane the guy had the nerve to flip his lit cig out the window right at my car. A$$HOLE!

Sorry to hear about your ride man, good luck getting it repaired!!!
If it was mine, (Maroon) I'm 100% sure the paint would never match again...no matter who painted it.
