Celica got hit :(, Pics/Story Options

[tim86]

Well I was on a basic road going home today traveling at about 45 behind a truck (the speed limit) and a 98 green v6 mustang pulls out after the truck turned and he did not see me. I hit him just as he was pulling into my lane at about 45 and instantly his whole front of his car was MESSED up with his radiator in my face and smoke going everywhere pretty much... In the pics you can see the green fluid and actually his tire on the side... the officer said it was about 4k in damage, but im going to go check around for estimates at body shops... For some reason, the car still drives well and does not shake or anything, but im no pro... Also I'm pretty shook up, but im alright, air-bags did not go off and my friend who was in the car is just fine as well... The mustang owner who was a kid like myself (18) got a ticket for failure to give the right away and his insurance will pay for it all... so i guess im not in too bad of shape... anyway, post comments/adivce whatever, id appreciate it.

[shin]

[Blakout16]

yah thats not a bad wreck at all... new hood... new fender... new highbeam. hope the frame isnt bent from that little hit... hmm

[Coomer]

That sucks.

It looks like the frame is probably bent.

yea it might be just called his insurance and they are having a person come out and look at the damage probably in the next couple days... I'm hopeing the celica will get fixed and they dont junk it... but who knows

that looks just like the accident i had when an suv hit my car at slow speeds. i used that as a good reason to upgrede to the gt4 hood and bumper since paint and stuff was going to be paid by insurance anyway.... something to consider!

[mr_dude]

Forget all these ideas to make your car prettier. Cut around the gash and you'll have a perfect place for the intercooler for your new turbo!

awwwwww suck a ____ & two ___'s what is going on!???

that SUCKS!! Is there some kind of curse on our Celicas??? Theres been so many accidents lately...wow!! Its those 7th gens, isn't it? They are after us I tell you....

[TheStreetzKing]

thatttt suxxxxxx

[gtcelica94]

that sucks tho. at least it still drives . and you ok
on the other hand this looks kind of custom,,, just this pic, just think of a headlight being there where that dent is at




lol only my crazy ass

[Cutrara]

That sucks. At least no one was hurt, and your airbags didn't deploy. Maybe you could go for some projectors now.

Yeaa it actually looks kinda custom with a lot of imagination thanks for the joking around, kinda takes my focus off of all the bad

[right][snapback]311337[/snapback][/right]

im thinking projectors would be cool, but I'll def try to get a cf hood or something a little different... This is all depending on what the claims officer or whatever we will call him wants to do with my car

[Batman722]

that should buff right out


j/k, sorry to hear it

[mark_426]

You're lucky, you'll get what it costs to repair/replace.

If its aftermarket, you take it in the butt from insurance...

Don't expect to get a lot back either..

[right][snapback]311358[/snapback][/right]

The only thing im worried about replacing would be the driver's side wheel... its probably slightly bent, not to mention scrapes from where the car was basically into me, so we will see how it all gets handled... hopefully it will go smoothly

[Drunken_Style]

sorry to hear

[Terzin1]

ok yea, i dont know if it was that stang dudes error, if it was at night, if he was drunk or whatever but it is SO gay when cops give the guy who caused it a ticket, that is just f'ed up. no only does he have to pay for his car to get fixed, he has to get yours fixed, his insurance will go up, and he has to nurse a ucking ticket. they should ask him if he wants to pay or if hed rather take a lashing, the lashing would cost less. im sorry to hear about your car tho.

[d-roCk]

man that sucks!! sorry to hear that! hey umm atleast you get a new front end all nice and shiney! but it still sucks with the rim!! hopefully all will be well!!

nah man... like i said it was during the day and totally his fault... he should learn not to pull right into people without yielding... im sorry but i felt sorry for that guy for about 2 seconds

[Kadett]

Always bad to see a Celica in pain!!!!

[dustin15brown]

yeah man that sucks... but goodluck

[JoKeRkId613]

damn, tim, that s h i t sucks. when i first checked out this site, your cars was what i wanted mine to look life. well, yours and harvesters. but yea, that sucks to hear. hope it gets fixed and looking good soon. later!

[ArizonaRed]

kinda off topic but I like those rims on that color of a car, except you need a center peice so the lug nuts dont show.

thanks... many celicas have these rims and im pretty sure on all of them the lug nuts show... doesnt bother me too much... on another note, the damage is about 3k and parts get here in about a week... the shop said itd take about a week or so to fix
