Ahh lucky bastard! lol...Ive been trying to get someone to hit me in the front so i can get a new bumper and hood...(the place i take it to get it serviced lets me buy my own parts before they work on the car...so i could get a CF hood, new bumper and WW Front lip for about all the same price as the persons insurance company would give me....

(i think i figured that right...woudnt getting a CF hood be A LOT chraper than a new acura one painted and all?? cuz if i saved $ there then i could get the WW lip! )

Im praying everynight that someone will hit me! lol

I know this is horrible to ask, but does anyone know the best way to "plan" on getting hit without haveing it be your fault???

(Ex. when theres a double turn lane, i ALWAYS get into the inside lane because people seem to cross over into my lane, therefor allowing me to hit them (t-bone) and its their fault because they cut me off and came into my lane.) woudnt that be their fault?? lol

I'm in the same situation as you bro.

I do remember seeing a CF hood for our car on ebay a couple months back but nothing recently.

I did however email every single seller on ebay selling any CF hoods and asked if they make one for the CL.

I have a post about this not too many days old since I got into my fender bender saturday the 4th.

Check out my post about a CF hood. In it, there is info about a company that has fake CF hoods(fiberglass underlayment) for $290 plus shipping.

I'd rather just get an OEM hood since I can't find a real carbon fiber hood w/ the holes pre-drilled.
