what ever you do dont take the offer the other insurence offers, they're probably going to offer you 80% your fault and 20% hers, fight with them for awhile and hopefully they'll see it your way

Did the lady have insurance, and a driver license? If she's a FAB, and doesnt have either or, then it's automatically her fault since she was driving illegally. Just a thought to help you out. Oh, and tell the insurance she did an illegal lane change manuever. That's make it her fault to, even though you rear ended you.

Just thought I'd help out a fellow CL member. Hate to see another go. Goodluck man....

By law, you're suppose to signal 100 feet before you make the initial lane change or turn. And on the freeway, if you need to cross over 3 lanes, you must wait 3-5 seconds before every lane change. You can't just cross over 3 lanes with the signal on all at once.

i hate driving in traffic on the PCH, im guessing thats where it happened?

are you okay? Make sure you see if you can pass the buck any way possible.

Insurance should take care of you, this stuff happens.

make sure you salvage as many of your mods that you can.

your TEIN's and HID's should be recoverable.

i guess you can give people tips on how to secure this lip..

All aftermarket parts or valuables in the car they are suppose to let you take out. It's still your car by law. They cant say no to you.

the ballast and wiring for the HIDs has got to be usable.

you'll just need new bulb(s). get the TEINs, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE

do not let the system take advantage of you. YOU put the money into the car

now YOU take it back out of the car... simple as that... get a couple of friends, grab

some tools and get to work... As long as your not hurt in anyway, carry on with salvage.

Sorry to hear about the accident. When I seen the thread title, I thought the lip fell off in the road or something but damn, not this. Good thing you're ok. So what's the long story of the incident?

If you get the lip back, I'll buy it off you.

ok well. im basically goin to be at fault says the insurance company. So my parents are like let them handle it. itll take the company 10 days for the police report and such and such. so i probably not goin to get money till like a month from now.

Right now ive been talking with my mom about bringing the car back to the house. because i still have all the oem parts. The Lip im selling to my frend for 50 bux unless i get another cl, but that seems unlikely becuase insurance will b a bitch. Anyway i will find a way to slavage it becuase i was weighin my options for new used cars for under 10000 and right now the Integra Ls looks like the best bet and if i get that car i could use my hids. however, gettin a new car will probably take months because inusrance needs to settle. so do any of you have suggestions for a used car? i minus well research them now.

yea shit such a shitty day too. First day of school and people was like wheres your whip. Im driving are old minivan and shit i miss the cl.

i say take your parts off the old CL and get you a 99 CL. Insurance will not be crazy, its not considered a sportscar. Trust me, if i can get 6 tickets for racing and my license revoked and reinstated and my insurance still didnt blow up, you'll be just fine. I regretted not getting another CL when mine got totaled. And i still do to this day, which is y im searching for another 1. Dont make the same mistake!!!
