this was just over 2g's to fix. and i didnt get a new bumper. i think his car is toast. atleast 4-5g's to repair... the whole front lower frame is bent in..luckly it just bolts on. but the radiator support is done, radiator, condensor, hood, fenders, lt and rt frame is prolly bent in and needs to be streatched, headlights (like 600$ from acura) bumper, bumper cover front motor mounts prolly broken, plus all the shit we cant see inside... he'd be better off if they totalled it out. car will never be the same after its repaired from that.

Sorry about your car man, that bitch will likely get hers for treating you that way.

I can only wait and see at this point I'll be happy to get my CL back like new or to get another nice car, as long as I have a car by late June (my next trip to FL to see my gf and hopefully bring her back this time )

wow man that sucks
hey are you selling the headlights?
have them take them off before they come look at the car and tell them you dont know what they are at and then sell them to me
just an idea

PS, clever about the commercial. It didn't dawn on me you were doing it on purpose. DUH. Oh, you should prolly total it. It will sqeak and grown and rattle if you try to fix it. Parts will never line up right again if the frame box is bent.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I am with State Farm as well. They are real good about taking care of shit like this. In fact, you could buy it back for pennies on the dolar and make bank parting the old girl out. Just a though.

It's Divine....and the avatar is from the movie "Predator". If you
haven't seen it, go rent it or buy it. It's one of the best movie's ever made.

Damn, sorry about that, I knew it was an "i" I must be an "e"diot. I thought it was from a movie that had some jungle scenes. And yes, I've seen both of them, as well as Preditor Vs. Alien. Now that was cool.

It's all good..."e"diot.
I actually enjoyed watching Predator VS Alien's...except for that
STUPID scene where the girl and the Predator are walking along side each
other, sort of like partners.
Other than that, it was cool.

Well, my car has a cloth interior, so no heated seat switches
I got the call today, they think it's totalled, the guy estimated about $4600 in damage just from looking at it. He never even asked about the bumper or where it was. Good to know I can buy it back so cheap, I may end up doing that, cause little do they know I already bought all the bumper parts. All that's needed now is the radiator, headlights, rad support, and hood, and I work for transpro radiators so I can get one cheap (I actually just replaced the radiator like 4 months ago )

Thanks for the optimism Blue. The only thing that'll suck is my insurance rates.....
I'm thinking I'm definately gonna get an S14 240sx to replace it with. I would get an s13 hatch, but they're so hard to come by these days, and I'd need to pay out of my pocket cause I can only get a loan on a 94+. if I can't find anything, I might see if I can buy back the CL.....I feel bad for it....just when I started to appreciate the thing I ruin it's life, or it ruins me, however you look at it.

Dude, how am i gonna be able to see how to take the bumper off when you got it all messed up. Cant see the holes for the bolts or anything...GEEZ...The nerve of some people....hah aha...Sorry about your luck dude...Hope everthing works out.
#68
lol. It really pains me because I should have had a bumper on it weeks ago. The guy doing my body work (his shop is right next to the warehouse I work at and he does stuff for my bro all the time and was giving me a great price) was doing projects as favors instead of doing my bumper that I already had paid for.
Use search, there's gotta be a FAQ about removing the bumper somewhere.
Everything worked out for the best.....my CL was on its way out anyways.....162k miles, had alot of dings/paint chips and was starting to rust in the rear wheel area. I was predicting tranny trouble in the near future cause it seemed to be making noises in 2nd and 3rd, and the accident was probably the only way possible to get all my money back on it. I got an 01 stratus 5spd coupe for about the same price (and is a very nice car despite what most people here seemed to have to say about it), and my insurance is actually lower on that than the CL even AFTER my accident.

Yes, insurance does suck, especially when you get a 6 point ticket (aka my current status). Hopefully everything'll turn out in the end, and just remember: that bitch'll get what's coming to her someday...

No I don't. I watch too much Initial D
Nah, but it's not really my dreamcar, of course if I could have anything I wanted I wouldn't get something so slow and cheap, but I'm just saying it's what I'd want in my price range if I had more time to shop or if there was more on the market.
