i like the car the way it is fellas. no need for changes. and I got a body guy that will do a better job than them and he'll do it for virtually nothing since we're related. so i'm good for now

Sucks man. You're very close to the write-off line with that one. I got my front end clipped a year ago and the bill came to 5.5k and the insurance guy said pretty much was $200 or so under the line. Glad your OK. And yes, people from Massachusetts have issues with driving I can speak from experience.

You should talk to the body shop about having aftermarket parts installed too (such as Moog ball joints, front camber kit in place of stock upper joints etc. since you'll be needing suspension parts). I got a CF hood, 03 headlights and grill for free!

yea naw it's all good. I'm just worried about my ct front sway bar hope it's not toast..

and I got moog front and rear sway links which prolly got bent thus they will be replaced with oem crappy ones... so i will need to tent to that but thats it.

suspension i will change later. It doesn't bother me ALOT.. like it does most.

Not sure how it works in the great north, but I basically told my body shop guy to "order part number XXXX, XXXXX, and XXXXX from www.xxxxxx.com instead of the ones from acura" and he did it with no problem from the insurance company since the costs were more or less the same"

or like me where the insurance gave me money for a new aftermarket fender, but with my discount and such, i went and bought a brand new OEM fender from Acura for like $20 more, then what they had given me for it, i don't think most people would complain about that (ike i got 220, and it was 240 or something)

anyways progression, does it need a new subframe in it also?

CL-S progression 01

iTrader: (2)

soo... now it's going to be july 26th before ANYONE in north america/planet has my friggin rim! this is straight buloni

the distributor got konig on the phone and they said they are barely producing the rim and mine has to be "custom" made...

SO i still don't have a car and won't till the 28th or something.

apparently my rims are rare to the max... not a very good thing now that I think about it

Can't you just get the car back and ride on a donut until you get it?

CL-S progression 01

iTrader: (2)

yea but my allignment will be off and the tires are all virtually new so I don't want the camber to wear anything out.. etc. who knows how bad it is.. they're doing it after I get the other rim so everything will be mint

damn shoulda pushed to total it. My car will be going in for body work and paint next month too 2nd time this year

friesm2000

iTrader: (4)

insurance probably would have already, but since so much is already invested into it (not like you can just take out the parts and make all your money back, still gotta pay labour too), they probably won't

Nersh7

thats pretty lame man, at least they are getting everything done and your not having to come back complaining. My dad had to go back to this one shop like 3 times because they kept missing things and did a shit job on his MDX.
