Default Missing my LS1, Posting up some pics

well a while back a lady hit my car so its not looking real great right now, so i figured id post up some pics not seen here yet then some of how it looks now

Before :



and now:



long story short, I was following my dad to a Harley Davidson dealership, he was getting his bike tuned up, on the way a lady pulls out, almost hits him on his bike which would most likely have seriously injured or killed him, and ended up hitting me. Most visible stuff is the front right fender has a dent, and shoved back onto the pass door, front right rim and tire are all torn up, pass door has a crack in it, rear right fender has a dent in it, my E-brake light and ABS malfunction light stay on now. Ive been fighting with her insurance for weeks now. At first it seemed to be only appearance damage, but on the way home from a body shop where i got an estimate, the SES light started flashing and now it runs like utter ****

I know how you feel man. I had an old lady run a red light right in front of me a couple of weeks ago, and I ended up eating the right rear quarter panel of her cadillac. Link for pics: http://www.gmhightechrides.com/cgi-b...?m-1154920641/
