That's it I'm comin' to Tennessee next summer for the meet up...time for some detective work and a little vigilante vengeance!!! :gun:

[VIPER1988]

Well then back to sorry ass FL...for me, LOL.

That person who "dinged" your car needs a sledge to the face! No note? No responsibility? NO RESPECT!!! :rant:

[VIPER1988]

they need more than that. take that hammer to their vehicle too

[VIPER1988]

have to take it tomorrow for estimates. hopefully insurance dont total it.

[Pico]

That Fuckin Sucks.
Hope you get it takin care of

[phrenology]

That just pisses me off, just cause you have an older vehicle, they figure they can get away with it and it doesn't matter...of course cops don't care and unless you have collision/uninsured motorist, you're kinda screwed. Its like here when the bums smash windows on the parked cars looking for change, drugs, or to steal your shit. No respect for other peoples property. :rant:

What part of FL now? I lived there for more than my fair share.

[VIPER1988]

gainesville area. atleast i still have my parts car. i have most of the parts to fix it

[phrenology]

That is one beauty of FL...having time and space for a parts car, no such luck here. I grew up in the Burg...bay area. I never did much in Gainesville...can't say I'm a Gators fan or wanted anything to do with UF. I pretty much stayed around the Bay Area, Sarasota, and Orlando.

if you can pay shipping i have a decent passenger fender and a headlight bucket assembly, you can have them, i only ask you find me some like it later, those are my spares, they will get you going until you can look for some more.

[Civic Accord Honda]

some of them "gangstas" tboned my mom in her new off the lot tundra the day she got it. pointed, laughed, and drove away before the cops get there. pissed the hell off doesnt quite describe it.

got a few quotes today. average is about 1500$ so it will most likely get totaled

[charliekuney]

If you have the parts, why not just replaced them and skip dealing with insurance and a salvage title?

[lostforawhile]

just fix it or negotiate to see what they will pay without total, it's mostly cosmetic

[VIPER1988]

the guy that did it came by again today and left a paper in my window with his name phone # and insurance info. if his insurance company is gonna give me money to fix it im gonna take it. even if it does mean a salvage title. im never gonna sell it.

[lostforawhile]

be completely sure they let you keep it

[VIPER1988]

if they total it, i will buy it back. it still drives and its all i have thats drivable right now

[Ichiban]

Sucks dude. I totaled my 83 twice in four months, cost me a total of 135 $CDN to fix it. First time I smoked a deer, second time someone fired a beer bottle through the windshield. Luckily, the public insurance here likes writing cheques and telling people to get lost. Good thing my windshield was already broken, and insurance denied the original claim because it was snow weight damage, without evidence of "flying missile" damage. WTF. Guy with the beer bottle did me a favour.

[A18A]

these cars look so beat when they've been damaged with their lights open. kinda like someone with their eye ball hanging out of their eye socket

[lostforawhile]

do you have the dot corners or the line? i think i have some dot ones and a grill piece just let me know if you need it if it had been the other corner marker i had a spare, but i don't have a spare for that side

[Ayeobe]

Its the dot corners, or should be.. Damn, man, that sucks. If he had hit from the front, you'd be fine hah.. the front bumpers are crazy resiliant, but i guess that isnt an angle they thought you'd get hit from.. Shit. I have a spare 87 corner light from FL lol. But i guess if you can find one in the pull a part down there, itll cost 1$, and S&H is gona cost more than that!

Fuck the insureance, dude. Pull a part. Its dirt freakin cheap there.

[SZfiftyfour]

Wow. That damage is weirdly, looks like someone in a 4x4 tried to drive up your hood. Hope everything works out for you man.

[CzEcHy]

Ya really just get a new fender/bumper/lights and you'll basically be back to normal, all for like 50$ at a pull-it.. My accident basically looked just like that and it cost me nothing to fix and the repair estimate was 1000$.

[Vanilla Sky]

If you need any parts, I'm over in Palatka and I will be coming to G-Ville a LOT over the next couple of weeks to panic build 2 GRM $2010 Challenge cars.

What are you doing tomorrow? I might have some time that I need to kill.

[labeledsk8r]

damn that sucks, sounds like a normal florida driver lol. if you need any help fixing it let me know, i dont own a 3g anymore but i still know my way around them like the back of my hand, i also hit up g-ville alot to skate there new skatepark mosyt likely will be there tuesday

[Vanilla Sky]

Mini meet?

[VIPER1988]

was dotted corners, then i changed it to lined, now i have a reason to use my clear corners that have been collecting dust for more than a year now.

all the shops i went to were quoting me about $430 for junkyard parts. i priced everything NEW on ebay after shipping $480. or i can pull it all off my parts car for free.

im down for a mini meet. im off all day monday and wednesday.

remember a lot of those ebay parts won't have nearly the quality of factory parts

[Civic Accord Honda]

get check for cost of new parts, pull of parts car for free, use check on maintenance or fresh paint job! succeed at life.

fixed it

[VIPER1988]

well they are going to total it. but the final value is under 1500 so i get to keep original title not a salvage title. i will have to pay part of my paint out of pocket but oh well. was planningto get it done soon anyways.

[Xaisk]

I feel bad for you,

But I also dont understand the titling...

So lets say you 100% own the car.. and you get minor damage like he took to his front headlight, bumper, and fender..

They would mark your car as a salvage junk car and try to take it from you?

If that was the case if they came for my car id tell em to get the ($#$ off of my property before it got hostile.

There is no reason to mark it salvage or junk because of that... Its completely driveable...

Maybe im understanding the titling wrong though...

(edit)

Also.. how the heck does somebody hit the front headlight and bumper when they are in a parking lot with cement and grass in front of the space? The dumb $(#) doesnt notice he is going into grass? I mean come on when he turned into the spot he didnt notice that he was slanted at an angle bad enough to do that kind of damage to the bumper and headlights? WTF???

Sorry for my ranting. Im pretty pissed about that because I bet it was some dumb #$(# driving some stupid SUV that is to big for them to handle and dont even need it because they dont have a damn family to drive around. ughhhh

[VIPER1988]

that was after i moved the car. it was a tractor trailer rig that didnt turn wide enough.

[VIPER1988]

half way through fixin it and it decides to start raining. :burn::banghead:

[lostforawhile]

is the rear upper corner of that fender ok? i'm going to mount my fuse panel under the fender and i need to make an access door attached with druz fasteners. would it be much trouble to cut off that section?, i think it will fit in a USPS flat rate box. I hate to cut up a good fender to make the door

[lostforawhile]

a piece about like this
http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b205/moultriemanicmechanic/fender.jpg

[VIPER1988]

sure if it ever stops raining. pm ur info and i will let u know what shipping is. should fit medium flat rate.

[ecogabriel]

I have just saw your thread; man that sucks!

Insurance companies just want to get rid of the problem throw some bucks at you and then leave. Glad that you are taking care of it. I hope you managed to get as much $$$ from the insurance as possible

[VIPER1988]

cheap F**ks only gave me 800. thinking about calling an attorney. nada has 87 hatch lxi listed at 1950$ for low retail. "we dont have a listing for that car on nada" thats because u didnt look under classic cars. f**king idiots. :rant:

[wh1skea]

ouch......thats the only word that comes to mind over the whole ordeal. Hope you can get that settlement straightened out.

[Civic Accord Honda]

damn insurince companys!!!

good thing the new parts are same color though !, why dont u have the lxi rims on it though? id repaint them black again without the center caps and they look much better then hubcaps ^_^ also swap the 88-89 front brakes!

[VIPER1988]

i originally had those rims on it. but huge underwater pothole bent 2 of them. parts car is an 87 also. so brakes are the same. rain cant decide if it wants to stay or go. really irritating. now i have no ride to work.
