Talking Rear Ended Someone. My Fix.

Hit an Altima at not even 3mph. She accelerated, then braked. I hit her.
Cops were already at an accident, one walked over and asked if we were ok. Nothing was done to her car. Mine wasnt so good. I didnt get a ticket as the lady said she wasnt going to file a report. I agreed of course.

Already got a quote to fix it. Luckily 3 of my HS friends work at the same body shop for years. I know the owners also. I just need to time to drop it off. Vw's acting up too.

Blah, pics.













Front lips fine. I just removed it due to the bumper hanging down. It scraped on everything. Didnt want to loose it although I have a spare.
Needs a drivers fender, driver headlight, new bumper, cracked my Js grille in 3 places, and my hood has a crease. :-/

Currently using my NHBP headlight. The tape covers all the paint thats missing, cracks, and the creases in the the metal.

You should see it at night. My running light popped. So the driver has a crazy bright white LED and the passenger has the OEM amber one.
And the driver beam points on the ground.

I like the way it looks now. If you were to walk around it, you cant tell its been wrecked. Only thing that gives it away is the gaps around the driver side.
Just noticed the last pic looks PSed. Hehh

That sucks Ray. But the tape looks cool.

Well now you can finally go with that City Aria front end you always wanted.

I dont want to be without a car. If the Vw would stop being a Vw Id drop it off. Vw shuts off when it wants, just drove it and it didnt do it. IUNO?

The tape was to cover the rough look. I beat and pushed the fender in place so I could drive it without the front bumper falling off.
Replaced the headlight too.
