no...no one got hurt expect my feelings . after seeing the car again today i saw why the driver side didnt come out cause i hit the passenger side first and thats where all the damage is at mostly. The more i rethink about that nite i realize that i swerved out of the way into the wall to avoid a rear end collision from the guy that cut me off. Guess thats better than having more ppl involved and more damage and money spent.

yea its mostly cosmetic, but i know i saw some fluids running loose after the accident, but it wasnt gas, might have been radiator fluid. The car still runs and move. The engine didnt seem to take any visbile damage.

im still waiting for the d*mn estimate today.

Well just got my BLOODY Estimate... and turn around time

14,000 to 15,000 with a 4-5 week turn around time and maybe one more week till its ready. Apparently i hit the wall harder than i thought. I think ima have someone else look at the car cause thats f*****ng unbelievable . They say its undrivbale, but yet the car moved when the tow truck guy drove it off the wall.

NOT really...the bastard at Bermans said the frame rail was damage and would take 5 weeks to fix or more and that the engine would not run even THOUGH IT DOES OR HOW THE HELL DID IT GET ON THE TOW TRUCK DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.... and that other stuff like radiator, whole front, and bumper needs to replace. Oh yea one passenger side front lamp.

Anyway i told some other friends of mine and some bodyshop owners and they ALL said get the car the F**K out of there. Im doing that tommorow once i let my insurance kno about it.

The guy at the bodyshop said "....no one else can do it faster" Bull crap...I want my car back sooner..not next century when the Infinity G87569 comes out.

HA! (not laughing at your Glen) but I read this post and thought that it was recent. I thought you finally got your car back and had wrecked it again. BTW, have you gotten the car back?!?!

I didnt understand at first that my paint job for IP is a three stage process. But i went to Raffi's shop to drop off the exhuast to be installed and saw my car. Its looking good so far. Ill ask Raffi to email me the pics of the car so you guys can see the progress.
