Since your windshield broke, I am guessing you have some bad frame damage.......I hope that is not true though.

i know man... those caused more damage than it was suppose to help.. i was going 45 and it popped too.. i think the 6gc airbags are really sensitive... my friend's civic was going 50+ hit a truck and it didn't even pop...

Just think how nice the Celi will look when it is all repaired!
![]() The airbags in the newer cars are made different. They do not go off just depending on speed, like the old cars udes to at around 15mph. That is probably why the Civic's air bags did not go off and yours did. |

doesn't look like the car would start, for the fact you've ripped the fuse box off

its about 100 for a new fender. about 300 for a new oem bumper. 450 for oem hood. and just grab a fuse box from another wrecked celi and go to a local body shop to see if they'll frame repair. thats about how much i got and i was only goin 10 mph but he didnt exactly stop when he hit me. destroyed my bumper, fender, hood, side mirror and the driver side frame for the window. costed me about 1500 dollars after all the paint. shouldnt be tooo bad for u. but i got a deal on all of my stuff because i worke at the body shop so i did most of the sanding and prepping and primer.

Why the heck did they make the passenger airbag cover hard plastic!!!! They could have just made it soft so it wouldnt bust the window out! Its a bad design! Thats why i have a new windsheild also...so everytime you get into a crash and airbags come out plan on spending another 400$ for a windsheild. Shoot, im gonna disconnect the airbags if i ever get anotehr 6gc with them in. ![]() -------------------- ![]() |

http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=21703 , this is how bad my car was after the crash.
$700 for labor $1800 for paint job, i'm painting the whole car. $2300 for parts like reinforcement bar, radiator support top and bottom, headlights both sides etc... $1201.60 for GT4 hood and bumper $400 for MoMo steering wheel and hub adapter $250 for GT4 riser blocks total adds up to be 6651.60.. so i guess your's would be alot cheaper ReMyRaMi. i guess repairs would cost you like $1000++ -------------------- |

Mine was wrecked pretty much like that when i bought it. It didnt damage the fender though.
150$ for Red Bumper (bought from here) 150$ for Red hood (Car-parts.com) 120$ for Highbeam/Lowbeam (bought from here) 0$ Cut airbags out and leave ripped steering wheel and put airbag cover on passenger side ![]() then i was blingin! I just straightened out some stuff under the hood (not perfect but it works fine). I also just picked up a new fender off ebay for 150$ shipped. (School bus just hit me ) This post has been edited by bufferdan: Mar 9, 2005 - 4:08 PM -------------------- ![]() |

the crumple zone was probably crushed.. But the protective frame around the cabin is still good.
air bags cost alot to fix.. some where around 1500-2000.. I'm still trying to gather funds to repair my car.. damn you un-insured motorist.. ![]() |

I'm gonna guess at $7000 for an estimate, mine was around $6300 and yours looks about as bad, maybe worse.

Sorry to hear, & hope the insurance doesn't call it as the incident being your fault. If he had a problem, there are shoulders on the freeway for emergency stops, not on the onramp where there will be cars constantly coming, that's like saying its ok to park on an actual highway & if they cause an accident it’s not their fault. The merc was asking for an accident to occur & sadly it did, glad everyone’s ok I hope.

it was your fault. Whether you like it or not. He could of stopped because of an obstruction in the road or had a heart attack. You hit him, from behind, your fault.
if someone slams on their brakes on a highway or any street and/or stops and you hit them from behind, it's your fault. -------------------- |

Yep. Have to agree that its your fault. I'm not here to make you feel any worse or whatever, but you its most likely that you are to blame. Batman pretty much said it. You hit him from behind.
And you're not the only one on the site without a working Celica. There's plenty of guys with swaps/turbo projects/accidents that are in progress as well. Its just life buddy. -------------------- ![]() A Jaws4God Creation... |

i dont think everyone should take this so seriously...$20 is a joke but $1 is just a kind hand out to the celica community to help him get his car going again. be nice to the noobs and all the 6gc's.

a friend summed it up to me pretty good once..... if you hit someone from behind, 99% of the time its your fault. i'm sorry to hear it man, it really sucks... i smashed my celica about a year ago this time... cost me about $1000 to fix, and thats without airbags or paint lol...

You know what... just go to autozone and get some good wax. It should just buff right out
![]() And yes most of the time when you hit someone from behind its your fault, but it is also breaking a law to be "parked" in the middle of a road or freeway, and also going too slow is also an offense, this is why there are emergency or breakdown lanes, and you will most likely always have enough power to pull to the side if something go's wrong with your car, especially on a freeway. Moral of the story is to have full coverage, its a bit more per year but worth it when this stuff hapens. Also, one thread on the same topis is plenty. You are also posting the same thing in both threads... that is a no no. This post has been edited by Chrobis: Mar 11, 2005 - 1:05 PM |

Just 2 days ago, someone at a red light was waiting. It turned green- she started going in REVERSE! I couldnt believe it. I was like 6 cars behind and nobody was moving. I switched lanes and saw this a** was going reverse in a major 4 lane highway..I dont know if she/he ended up backing into someone..ridiculous how people drive.
And I do agree with you that if you park your car on a major highway- that person should deserve to get hit and be responsible for others hitting them. Unfortanetly, the law aint like that.. |
