Default Guess how much in damages...
Ok, well as some of you know, about 2 weeks ago, a lady on her cell in an Explorer caused me to wreck. I hit the right curb, then went to the other side of the road and went over THAT curb into the median. Worst part is, she took off... Here are some pics... Try and guess just from what you can see, about how much i have in damages. Just seeing the dirt all over my car is bad enough, let alone this... I'll know how much it's REALLY gonna cost me tomorrow...

fender and rocker panel damage repair= 900$
new set of wheels and tires. your call on that.
front control arm,spindle upper control arm maybe 100$ at a salvage yard
sway bar bracket and rack n pinion 250$
fender liner 25$
so far 1275$ without the wheels. but that can go as high as you willing to spend.

I probably have all the parts you need, minus body parts, sitting in my garage.

Really? Willing to sell them? If so, I'll talk to my dad. He has the car right now at his shop up in Arlington. It's called Ground Zero Customs.

That car is probably going to have to be pulled on to get it back straight.

Well, my dad's the one who's going to be fixing it, and I know he won't go to GM. He knows way too many junk yards for that. Lol.
