    Crashed my 3g!

    AAARRRGHHH!! will post pics after work.

    In related news, also smashed my garage!

    Front of the hood sits about 0.5" in yet is fine on it's supports, so the front must be bent. Front bumper no longer attached to fenders. One folding fog light smashed.

    Was the internal access garage, which now has a big hole in the plasterboard.

    Thats what you get for reaching inside and starting the thing without checking it's in gear lol.

    This is going to cost hundreds, mainly on the wall.

    Re: Crashed my 3g!

    shit my wife did the same thing and ran her accord into my garage door.

    I'm sure you won't make that mistake again.
    It especially sucks because there is really only one person to blame hehe...

    Didn't the 88-89 accords have clutch switches? I know the 2 86's I have owned did not have them.

    Re: Crashed my 3g!

    his is a 86. and he swapped it from a auto so im guessing he didnt put a switch on the clutch when he installed it. i didnt either but it is a wise idea. but i allways put my car in gear and then out of gear before i start it so i never have that issue. im pretty sure clutch switches arent on the jdm accords its a usdm thing.

    hurry up and finish work i wanna see pics

    Well after getting home and taking a good look it doesn't seem too bad.

    Pulled the hood back in to shape, removed the smashed grill which has only been on the car a week lol. Looks like I will need a new bumper though, this one now has crease marks in it. Lucky for me I already have one.

    One is fine, the other is bent. Will remove the front bumper on Saturday. I'll have to get the one from the EXL-S painted. At least that gives me an excuse to get the folding mirrors and side skirts painted too
