premium going up regardless, I would demand OEM only. a headlight is like 300 the grille is about 400.
Bumper, fender, do a elbow on the hood, paint.
alignment,

you got 2000 minimum for an estimate at a dealer. probably closer to 3000.


good luck.

$500 deductibles suck for fender benders like this. I changed mine to $50 a while back and pay a couple dollars more a month.

Hope you get everything sorted out alright.

Damn, didn't you just make an intro thread? The TSX is a dying breed, we have to keep them alive! Good luck, don't let the Vtec hit so hard next time.

Good luck OP. Since you're writing here, I assume you're safe and not really injured which is good news. Hope you get her back up and running soon.

I'd look at this as an opportunity.




An opportunity to get sport bumper, 09-10 grille, and fishcake black housings which are about the price of 1 OEM headlight.






I've messed up an oem regular bumper and sport bumper, so don't feel bummed out. I'm on my second sport bumper.

your parents chose that deductible.

i have $1000. deductabile on all my vehicles, i don t want to pay the thieving ins. co. any more than i have to. brings the premium down considerably.

wow. just called my ins. co. all my vehicles, if i bump them back to 500 ded, cost me 40 a year on 3 vehicles, somewhere i was misled yrs ago, believing i was saving a few hundred. think i will be reducing.

I know that they chose it and am fine with it, but what I mean is if he thinks his $495 deductible is bad, mine was 2X that lol The other guy was fliying way past 35 with his headlights off.. Since I had yellow flashing yield, he had the right of way, even though there's no way in hell I could've seen him. It ended up being my fault aswell even though I stopped and checked twice before going.

Yeah... insurance companies will argue that you can't prove it was off and the lights might have been damaged in the accident. I wonder if that information is in the car's black box? A dash cam would have helped your case.

Lol. You typed that out while driving, I'm guessing? Its probably also a good guess that you were looking at your phone before rear ending the person in the accident.
