Well, i was coming back from the mall due to needing some work boots. I was waiting at the light and finally got the "arrow" to turn. I decided to accelerate and out of no where a red acura integra runs the red light and trys to beat me through the light..He ended up hitting my front-end with the side of his car. I felt bad for it happenening but am very upset that i started putting money into my vehicle and now i had to see it on a flatbed tonight. Parts that may be needed:

Hood, front bumper cover, actual fron bumper, radiator, and various stuff..



Summary::

-red Acura Integra ran a red light.
-I had the green arrow to be able to turn.
-he hit my front-end with the passenger side of his car.
-I'm pissed...

I think this is some sort of tiburon initiation. Everyone's front end gets smashed. See if you can get some aftermarket parts out of it with insurance money.

How much do you get for insurance monies? Wrecks are a good time to get rid of a lot of stock parts and get better ones (HID's Carbon Fiber hood, better bumper, clear corners, etc).
Sorry mang!!

i was hit as of 3 hours ago so i have to wait like 2 dyas before USAA claims guy calls. If all wokrs out well i will still have the car just get aftermarket stuff such as KDM headlights (glass Ones), CF Hood, and some type of front bumper...no idea yet. If they total it out, i will cry and will just have to settle for a DSM or something.

Well, i have no rd's in this area so i guess i might have to look into getting a GK, damnit.

so, i thought something was weird here tonight. We went up to the dealership where we dropped my car off to get the damage estimate....and it wasn't there. So, i couldn't get any pictures and wondering where the car might be.

find ur car.. sounds like they should be able to fix her up.. depending on how bad the radiator support bar. the metal thing that holds everything on pretty much.. if thats not needing replacement you should be fine..
