Sad Day for my NBP 05 TL
#41
I have car ADD
iTrader: (6)
Headlights + HIDs = $1500
All those Airbags =$3000
Hood, Bumper & Kit = $1000
2 Side doors = $1000
Not sure if you need a radiator, but that'll be almost $1000
if the airbags cracked the windsheild.... $800
Plus they're gonna have to put it on the frame machine.. new fenders, mirrors, painting...
thats alot of work....

daym, that is like the 3rd NBP that has been in an accident these last few days. What is going on here? Sorry to see such a nice car go
I couldn't help but noticed in the pic above, you have one stock TL rim on the driver side...did you change your rims out or were you always driving with one stock rim, lol.

Mine was just about complete also. Then on Memorial day, this dumb kid made the worst left ever and almost killed my sister and me. I lost my baby but she kept me safe
she didn't even have a scratch before this happened. 1/17/06 - 5/26/08
Not getting back all that I put in just adds insult to injury but the memories are priceless

BTW I'm still in pain, that's y I can't sleep and post after 5am.also,I can't work and my sister still can't walk on her own yet.so it all sucks in many ways besides the car.and the market kinda sucks now for 35-45 grand, not a good time to buy.

Wow, sorry to see such a nice ride get ruined that way . Regardless the NBP curse that Blackura said, I don't understand why our rides are always the target of destruction. Seems to me they're jealous (at least). Glad you're ok. Hope that dumb ass gets more than what he/she deserves.
That's the reason I really hate stupid red light crossers. Mine was almost got hit this way back in Dec 07 on Westpark Dr. and Briarpark Dr. Stupid 4dr Pontiac kept moving at quite high speed when his side was already red a long time.

Radiator for 1000????
The front would need a radiator support, 385 at the Dealer
Radiator you can get 100 used, trust me I know...Im fixing a TL at the moment..
Head lamps are pricey, even on ebay, your looking to spend at least 700 on those for the pair...New they run for 1200...
Insurance will total it due to OEM parts...but if you do this your self , you can get these parts at wrecked yards for less money and can always get after market as well...Always go with the best aftermarket company that is certified to get best fitment....Its going to need to be pulled by a frame machine which isnt too difficult...Trust the hit looks scary but in reality its not that bad....
Just my
Depending on the miles this car is going to go for at least 9k at auction

I'm not sure what to get next. I wasn't able to pull the audio and video out due to a stupid policy they had there, if it takes more then 5 mins to take out they don't allow it. I had a full custom setup screens and all.

You should be able to take everythng out..When my civic was totalled, I strip that car and left it completely stock with the excemption of the coilovers...
I would call your insurance company because they are not paying for the extras in the car....

Smokin blunts w/ Tupac in
damn.. Just saw this post.. Thats terrible.. Your TL was so clean!! Especially that crzy TV/Audio system you had... You know how I felt about the new wheels....
Since car is totaled, time to upgrade.. GS 430??? Dont go back to an Acura..
I cant wait until I get enough equity in my TL to upgrade..

I hate it for the guy. I know exactly what it feels like to put your heart and soul into a car, and then BAM, all gone.

to the OP, you car is def. totalled. The structure of the unibody has been compromised greatly. That entire rear fender is mashed up and so is the front. Straighting out the front subframe, which is aluminum will cost a bunch of money, about twice what a steel subframe would cost. As well, you have over 6+K in damaged parts.
It's good to see that the TL kept both posters safe. It's sad to see such nice TL's go out. I wish you the best in your recoveries and also wish you the best in the future on getting new cars and getting them back to the glory that these cars had.

Also find out how much is the buy back from the insurance...
These cars go for at least 7k at the auction....if the buy back from the insurance company is less than that, then maybe u could buy it and take all the stuff out of the car and then u ur self place it back into the auction to get some money back...Just a thought....
Im a new TL owner in Houston....Gessnar is always a cazy street

my wrecked 06 TL w/ 25k sold for $6700 at an auction
but i gotta say. thats BULLSHIT that you cant get your stuff... When i wrecked my car, insurance let me tow it... wait.. THEY TOWED it for free to my mechanic, where we stripped it down over 3 days time frame and got all my shit back... they said the only rule was, i had to put the stock parts back in place, or at least in the trunk of the car...

I guess depending on the actual hit of your car but it went cheap compared to what I've seen lately..
For example, and non-repairable meaning its only for parts, went for 4k on Monday....Thats a lot...usually part cars go for no more then 2k...
