Check out my new exterior mods!

A dumb 17 year old driver with NO LICENSE installed these COOL exterior mods for me yesterday on a wet road!

I was completely stopped with a car in front of me, when the impact from the rear (from a 2g DSM) sent me skidding into a lexus es300 in front of me.....she had no license, and NO INSURANCE (luckily i have uninsured drivers protection).....the good thing is that nobody was badly injured, just cuts and bruises....







here's what she looked like before:




i JUST GOT THIS CAR last month after 5 YEARS of waiting till i could officially afford one.....this upsets me the most....

i proposed to some people a long time ago that if you hit someone and you have either no license, or no insurance you should have a mandatory jail sentence of maybe a month or two. people would think twice. it's sad to say i know alot of people who got hit by drivers with no insurance.

Cool

Yo, That is really upsetting and depressing to hear. look, all of us on this forum can understand the pain your feeling for your car. Those pics are not pretty at all. We put so much time and money into our TL's and then to have it get fucked up on accident is just depressing as fuck if u ask me. Good thing is your ok. Car can be fixed or replaced but you only have one life that cannot be replaced. Get me. Anyways, hope you get the whip back to normal. Later.

Wow! Little fucking bitches that can't drive piss me off to no end! Please get another 99 TL I just looked on autotrader and there is one in spring TX w/74k miles states they have all service records, scratch and dent free, DEG(best color IMHO) for 10,200.00 its private sale so I bet you could score it for less than 10k maybe 9000-9500. Then get type-S rims, lip kit and spoiler and you are back in business. How much is your insurance co. going to give you man?

...or a mandatory beatdown.... jail is just a slap on the wrist cuz they'll just get out and do it again later.

I feel for you and your car. It's an inconvenience for sure but as my Dad once told me, "If you can walk away, be thankful." His best friend was killed in an Auto accident many years ago and he was just putting things in perspective for me. I havn't ever forgot what he told me. Now passing that onto you. You walked away didn't you???
