Hit from the back
The other day i got rear ended:
Yeah it sucks, as my boy but it...DAAAAAAAMN!
Here are some more pics:
But oh well i took this as an opportunity to do a little mod (HINT):
Yup I ordered a carbon trunk:
I can't wait to put it on. There were a couple of other things wrong with the car then just the trunk lid, so the car is at the shop. I also ordered tein ss so as soon as I get the car I am going to drop it. I will post pics as soon as I am done with it.

now Im just waiting to hit a deer so that i can do the same to the front....
I think that a carbon fiber hood and trunk lid will look good on a NHBP TSX....., what does everybody think.....????
I eventually want to get some rims that match the carbon color in the carbon fiber.... and change the crome finish to a carbon color....., what about that?????......., comments????

Nice trunk lid.
Sorry to hear of the woes - currently there myself.
Now if only there were a replica ducktail in Carbon Fiber, I'd be seriously getting the body shop to declare the bootlid unrepairable.
Mind you, with Indigo Blue, I'd be between two minds as to go generic or silver carbon.
Good luck with the repairs - hope you find a good repairer that'll do the job right, from the off.
