[CH33V5]

Only had time to snap one. I'll keep you guys updated. Might get a 99 black Ej8 mint with 88k miles...for just 200 dollars, no title though.

but by the angle it does look fixable

 

[Ed[K*]]

ouch

glw her bro, sad to see it go. is it truly totaled??

 

[act440]

oh f**k you werent kidding, i feel like s**t now. it looks fixable as long as there is no frame damage i would fix it. just replace the deck lid and the the bumper and it looks like it could be rollable, atleast your back glass didnt get ruined. but it looks pretty fixable bro. keep your chin up, were all here for you :]

 

[dj_hallucn8]

Omg! Damn sorry bro, I know you have put a lot of time in it, hope it can be fixed, doesn't look too bad from that angle though.

Found these on my grandma's camera. She was tweaking the whole time, these are the only ones that came out clear. (she's usually nasty with the photography)







But the quick quote I recieved for body work and paint would be over a grand it looks like. The exhaust is f**ked, bumpers f**ked, trunk obviously f**ked, it was driveable to get me home but made some weird noises, and the its kinda hard to see in the pics but the body lines over the rear passenger side are dented and mishapen. The body itself seems to be okay, she seems to sit straight. But my stepdad and I haven't really had a chance to fully inspect. I been to upset to deal with her since I got home.

as long as there isnt nay frame damage i say that its definitely worth fixing. just find a parts car or search your scrap yards and take the parts and you can get it paint matched and get everything else straightened out either by the body shop, or yourself and itll be good. thne get a megan cat back for relatively cheap and bam you got a freshly refurbished dope ass car

Removed the trunk and bumper covers today. Ordered new mirrors and then tomorrow I'll order the covers with a lip too haha.

I'm glad to see it's mostly cosmetic damage. Plus, this gives you an excuse to buy new parts.

 

[Osiris19]

There you go! Bring her back to life man!

 

[95coupeWI]

ouch mother fu*k that sucks dude!

So this is what it's looking like. Tomorrow I might trade my car as it is, plus a grand for a black EJ8, mint with only 88k miles. Only catch is no trading parts. :/ But that EJ is worth a good 5 grand with the condition its in.
