I'm so sad to see another Acura suffering like that. Save your money, buy a front clip, and have a front clip party with a few close friends to get that car back in shape. It's cheaper than taking it to an auto body shop and you feel more love for you woman (car).

OP - Do you know how lucky you are? If a cop stopped to help, he would have made a report. Which means he would have asked for insurance. No insurance? In VA you lose your license and registration, then you'd have to pay the fine ($500 here), then to get your license back (another $500 statutory fine), a reinstatement fee ($500), and you have to file an SR-22 for three years which raises your insurance, that is if you can find a company willing to insure you.
I know the past is in the past, but thats seriously a very risky and expensive thing to do, and now you're out a car.

I Did call my Insurance company and they gave me a 6 day grace period to pay the bill, but would nt extend coverage to beyond such date.

A true one, people crash from speeding, they make mistakes, it's part of learning how to drive or at least racing properly. Kids total their cars and it happens alot. The second time, now that would be unacceptable....
I did wreck my first CL, that's not why i said it. Refer to what i was just explaining ^
If you guys want to discuss it let's do it in PM's so we don't take this thread off topic

Racing properly is done on a track. Not public roads. Theres a huge difference between driving off into the sandtrap and driving into somebodies door.

Gotta love an Acura that doesn't leak. I have almost 200,000 miles on my 2.2CL and not one drop of oil has come out yet. I'm very satisfied with my girl (car). I'm shifting her manually but have an automatic and I am very hard on the gas, brakes, and cornering. That's another thing. Dispite the sway bar being a little to week to keep her level in corners, she holds tough.
