Doesn't look too bad. I've seen worse hits bounce back....

On the plus side, if her insurance fixes it....get the whole car painted with the fenders and front bumper fing02.gif

pics are blocked by my work firewall.

Explain where damage is? I'm assuming front impact (90% of tib wrecks)

Is radiator fine? Anything in engine bay messed up? One or both fenders? Hood and bumper I'm assuming... Any unibody damage?

The damage is the driver quarterpanel; one inch above my wheel.

I'm sorry! I got hit a few years back, don't have any pics to show you, but i think they can fix you up.

I know it breaks your heart because it's you car, but it really doesn't look too bad.

This is the EXACT reason I want to have our new WideBody kit include an entire 1/4 panel overlay on each side that covers up all of that damage. So if we wreck or something, we can doctor it up on the outside, and not have to pay unGodly expensive body work ti get the metal smooth again. That is the only part of the car beside the roof that we have to really worry about since there are no replacement panels we can slap on there. The 240 guys do just this, and cut out big sections of their 1/4 panels to install WB kits with super wide rear wheels, and fill up the space between the FG and the metal with expanding foam.

I think that'd at least help in this situation.

Why did it have to be towed? Looks drivable.
