Crashed :( Options

[SamuraiGuy]

tonight my brakes locked up or something like that. Cause i remember being unable to stop my car traveling at about 35mph and i crashed the front of my car, the airbags didn't depoly but i think its done some serious damage now i need to replace the front bump drive side fender. I hit a stop sign but its perfectly alright, and a curb too which flattened my tire. I am so depressed about that. It all happen so fast and my celi started smoking and i was hoping i woke up...so my bumper and alot on the driverside like the light hinge and fog light . And a list of other things including the radiator. I feel like a wreck....

its gonna be really tough i will try and have pictures soon. i really could use help with what i need done. My dad says that i just need make a list of parts so we can see if i can save my car. I am so sad , I finally had my dream car and now.....its sitting in the drive way with the drive side smashed up. I just couldn't stop crying...

don't worry about it...it is a pain in the ass, but just keep saving...good idea to start thinking about getting a kit instead of a OEM bumper...work on it slowly...you'll be okay...

[SamuraiGuy]

here's two pictures so far of the damage

[hitcachi]

Hell.....that'll take nothing to fix up! No frame damage or anything. Just start sourcing parts and you will be back on the road before summer even starts.

Fender, Bumper, Headlights, core support(looks like it at least)

Mabey 500$ total if you do it yourself.

while i was taking pictures my dad was checking the suspension. which is ok but i am trying find out if everything else is ok. We think my power steering cut out...

[axelrduvirage]

hope you are OK physically. i know it can take a few days and then...WHAM!! you are sore in places you didn't even know existed. looks like you weren't going too fast and the stop sign peeled your fender back. let's hope for no frame/suspension damage. chin up Cameron. i think we're all pulling for you and hope you can keep it on the road. nobody likes to hear of another Celi hitting the boneyard.

i'm sorry to hear about your celi, and i hope you are okay!

thanks. We called insurance and we're gonna try to get it back together. I guess i shouldn't feel too bad about it cause things happen i am told. My buddies and my brother think this could be an excuse to completely restyle my car. After i replace the control arm ^^; i was surprised i did that much damage. thank goodness the airbags didn't deploy

i'm sorry to hear about your celi, and i hope you are okay!

thanks. and i am 100% ok, though i won't be taking my car to prom my dad says i can drive his accord. so things are already looking up

[j0e_p3t]

sorry to hear about that. doesn't look too bad. maybe now you can uprgrade to a body kit and some projectors. but that would cost a grip more than stock parts.

[silverspyder]

you're lucky it didn't damage your headlights! I mean, dang they're expensive.

[devilsden97]

looks worse then it probally is

Well i was just quoted $6600 i think my poor celi may be finished

Fix it. You can do most of it yourself.

I was quoted almost 10,000. Turns out, it's going to be half that.

Rely on your 6gc community for parts and advice.

Don't give up! I hate it everytime a 6gc dies. there are so few of them it seems.

owie

[BBoYRuGGeD]

$6600 my a$$...if its all just cosmetic damage w/ no frame/suspension damage u can fix that right up cheaper with a kit, aftermarket fenders, maybe new rims. i'd say $2k maybe a lil' over to fix ur ride right up. i got into an accident once with my old car back in the day and the insurance company quoted the damage at $5k and i had it fixed at a local shop, nice owner for 1 grand.

They say i bent the u-frame (or whatever it called.) They also told me the control arms are bent too. I forget what else but the guy told us, but its quite a bit

don't give up man, take the wheel off and take good picts, i'm sure we should be able to analyze the damage. We're all here for you
