Well its been nice knowing all of you guys...
But last night at around 6:30pm, i got into a car accident... Rear ended a Volvo SUV 
at 15mph >_>;
Volvo has like scratcehs on it and stuff, but my car.... yea....
Just got back from the body shop, and the estimate came out to 5300

and as for parts... if the car is considered totaled, ill post em up for sale...

RIP 2.5TL.. 12/21/05

I hope you're alright man, sucks to lose your car. Keep us updated.
If you do part it out, I would definately buy the black housing around the headunit, and the wiring from the stock radio (just the connector and a couple feet of wire chopped off), maybe even a piece of carpet.

5300?? thats ridiculous. i had a similar accident, replaced basically all those parts(fender, front bumper, new headlight, new hood.etc) on my car and it sum up to 3000ish. maybe you should check out another body shop. theres a good one in el monte, not That far from DB
