Everything happens for a reason... yeah... Now your anger is peaked and you can plot for years and years until that kid is old enough to get a car... He will hopefully be into cars as well and like to take really good care of his stuff... and at the right moment you can sneak to his house, get your bat out... and smash every single square inch of it.

Maybe that little kid will grow up to invent a cure for some kind of disease.
Maybe that little kid is going to be a future war hero.

Or, maybe you'll get an LS1!!!

Keep your head up buddy.
or maybe that kid will grow up to be a MUSTANG owner. but i agree on the LS1 part.

man i hate to break it to you but it WILL be totaled. but theres still hope. You CAN buy it back and it CAN be fixed. it wouldnt be to hard, but it will be some work. but if you really want to keep it you have the option of fixing it. That bumper cover and hood wrinkled up is maknig the car look 2x bad as it actually is.

**EDIT** Didnt read the whole thing, jsut looked at the pics. if the struts are clsoer than theres some pulling tob e done but it can still be fixed, its just nmight not be worth it in the end unless you really love this car

What about the insurance?

Part it out, you are gonna spend more money fixing it than buying another one.

Should have nailed the little f@cker... survival of the fittest

The dumb f@ck is going to meet his end sooner or later... he's probably licking electrical outlets as you read this




































Sadly people are probably stupid enough to wonder if I am serious so here's the disclaimer... I AM
































NOT SERIOUS
