before i tell you guys this...

plzz... its is a sad day... very sad day for me...

no teasing about... driving reckless, v-tec reving, or anyother thing..

cuz it is a total accident this time... and i was driving carefully...

My third and hopefully final accident...

my 6th gen is involved... and now I am crying...

I was two cars behind him in the hwy and out of no where... he stopped infront of me... his tires start making smokes... he turn a lil to the left to avoid hitting the guy infront of him... it was too late for me... my car was slideding and sliding... and bang i hit himm... I look to my back... and two other cars has hit each other harder than I hit him...

The guy I hit told me is everthing ok... and he ditch the crime scene...

i was left with the other two cars that hit each other but didn't hit me...

I got a ticket... once again... ugh... (i gotta check if my license is suspended)

and here are the pics of the car at my house...

oh by the way... the insurance can't cover this... because we got kick out of geico... so everything i have to pay my self (with parents help) ugh... and out of job tooo... (very bad day for me...)


look at my intake showing...
and from the look of it... it looks easy to fix...

i was thinking of doing it my self until i see the support thingi..

My diy blackhousing is ruined... :( need new headlight and black house it again...

and now... I am in complete depression...

need to fix the support thingi (which is a big problem)

need to buy headlight, front bumper, hood, radiator bottle container thingi...

doesn't look much... but everything need to come out of my pocket... no insurance...

good thing radiator is is still ok... other wise it'll be extra couple hundreds of dollar...

went to shop... they estimate $3400 i was like :eekwtf: ...

and check price online and junk shop to do self... estimate less than $1000

that guy tries to rip me off man... ugh...

hard to find good and truefull mechanics these day...

The PARTS will cost you about a G. Then to paint the front of the car + blending you're probably looking at about another G.

Replace the radiator support.

well thats not so bad... when i had to re do my front end i tried to salvage as much parts as possible... and ur frame is not as bad as mines was so u can easily bang that back in to place no problem... it was just the radiator support that was bent which is lighter metal and can be bent back..

yours is probably not as bad as mines is and mines hides very well...
this was my 4th gens radiator frame

Sounds like you need to take a break from driving for a while.

Fate is saying it's just not for you. Dropped by an insurance company, wow.

Work on your judgement, not on modifying the car. If you get into accidents that often I don't know why you would think you have extra money to throw around on painting valve covers and HID's.

Sorry bud.

$3400?? dude i was charged $3200 to replace hood, bumper, DOOR, fender, headlights, pull frame out cuz it was bent in (the post where the door is hooked onto), and undent the backseat door on driver side. PLUS paint everything.

but things like this take time so hang in there. i took my car to the shop on august 28th, and i didn't get her back till october 11th. It was living hell but man when i got her back this weekend i was like living in a dream.

Sorry to hear about your accident.. Stop driving please.

Take a break, take a defensive driving course for FK's sake!!

For the record, isn't this your 4th one? :thinking:

The radiator support shouldn't be that hard to replace. You can do everything yourself, just buy used parts and have color mismatched for a while.

Don't drive.

I wish you luck, and this ain't the end of the world - don't get too down/depressed - it can get bad.

hm... i dont know how this is happening to u but things arent going so great for u. I think u should drive like 3-5 cars behind the car in front of u and dont speed so u can be safer and more responsive. hope everything goes well for u.
