Holy shit man! I recently got in a light fender bender (not even noticeable) and I freaked the fuck out! Man this really sucks, I feel so bad for you. I would die if this happened to me.

Ouch!! That sucks.. Hope everything with insurance works out for you..
On a side note, I went to San Jose CA today morning. I was on 880 toward San Jose and saw a WDP 3G front bumper on the shoulder. Hoping there isn't another one down..

^Well, I'm not at fault so I don't care how much it is to fix it, I just want it done properly. So far, insurance co. has been great to deal with...I've been presently surprised. We're at $10K CAD and counting...

However, it took almost 2 weeks just to get the parts in. Got a whole new exhaust and 2 new wheels among other things...the old wheels just had a few marks but the insurance co. replaced them straight away....same for the exhaust! I have to say that State Farm have been fantastic to deal with thus far...

Thanks for the well wishes everyone!
Would you believe a fucking VW Beetle?!!
It's actually worse than it looks.....besides the obvious there's also some major trunk floor damage. Have to see if any rear suspension bits have been affected.
Bumper/cover & valance, rear quarter, exhaust, 1 wheel, trunk lid, trunk floor, taillight assembly, possible rear door jamb....and whatever other unseen bits. Still waiting for adjuster. Probably double the dollar amount^. *sigh*
I should've left it dirty...Jesus, looks worse when clean!

Brother, I'm glad you're OK, but I sincerely feel your pain. That's dedication-cleaning it even AFTER the accident!

Fawk!
It was not a good morning...
Got drilled at a red light! My baby is resting at a relative's body shop, gonna go in tomorrow morning and clean her up and snap some more pix. But damage may be more extensive than what is shown...this idiot really slammed me hard.

I'm glad to see that you are back up and running again!
My car was only in the shop for 3 days and it felt like eternity

That sucks. Glad you're ok.
This is part of the reason I run around on near race tires, good brakes and a great suspension. Not that it would've helped in this case sitting at a redlight.
