    ItzDave's - I think my car is totalled thread.

    yup yup, i was traveling about 3 mph and i hit one of those big sewer-manhole- things. it was sticking out high enough(the cement all around had sank in) to hit my front crossmember and twist all of car in the surrounding areas. the front crossmember is fucked, plus it also did damage in other places... this wasnt really my fault, it was the roads fault. but since i was on base, i dont think i can get reimbursed or anything. and im afraid if i take it to a bofy shop to have it pulled straight, they will prolly charge me over 1000 dollars, so i dont really think its worth it...

    the bumper is attached correctly, its the frames behind it that are all twisted up so its bent to hell.


    cant open the door but about 5 inches.

    headlights wont go up and down cuz they are smashed in place by frames and stuff

    hood hits the fenders now

    split the seams

    made the paint peel off the front crossmember

    made this thing all jacked up.

    one last pic of the motor...

    Jesus christ! Your military bases must me in as piss poor condition as ours are. I'm pretty sure your version of roads and grounds would tell you to get stuffed if you went after them, but maybe your insurance company would be able to do something about it.

    damn bro , yeah if the cross member is bent its most likely not fix able unless you want to replace the whole front frame... you could ghetto fix it by welding in a new cross member and banging everything as stright as you could get it but it wont drive as good still... but hopefully your get another 3g and swap your goodies over

    another white 3gee hatch. This is nuts. Its like invasion of the flat booty bitches only with hatches instead. there popping up everywhere on the board. On a sidenote, the current 3gee probably got pissed and went emo on itself
