Pics of my car from the accident

[SuperHelix]

Not going to be totaled, about 22k in damage underneath and outside.

I wish I could post a picture of my bent spine.

photoshop your plates out imo

[Saladin]

ouch that hurts. loves the m3, to bad a damn ford ran into it.

[Adida]

the bumper fell off how can the car be totaled either use super glue or ducktape imo ducktape fixes everything












sorry bout your car dude

[Joshll]

I've seen alot of kids around my town that just use bungie cords on the rear bumper when that happens. Give it a shot!


So sad to see such a nice car beat up. Glad your still with us.

How about power levelling Joshll to 60?

[Zoidmeister]

Nothing that some duct tape and crazy glue can't fix

j/k

Glad your okay assface.

[Augomatic]

One word: Bondo

Use liberally.

If you want to fix it up a bit nicer, then buy a the rear quarter panel from a junkyard, preferably in a different colour.

No repainting needed!

[babafate]

i dont see 22k in damage..

i'll even figure in replacing the quarter panel wich i dont think it should need.. a good body man should be able to fix it for about 15 hours.

I cant obviousely tell everything from the pictures but i got most f the clearly visible stuff, and nearly any piece of suspension i can add for typical damaged parts in an accident of this type.

Format is all messed up from my software but no way to copy it directly to here unless i can upload the file. I'm also guessing on the year

just my .02, sorry to hear yur back is f'd up, my fiance totalled my truck on my birthday a fiew weeks ago n her back is messed also.

Oh estimate lists item being worked on, part number, times to repair/replace or refinish

[SuperHelix]

Underneath suspension gone - 4-5k
Supersprint X and S mid pipes gone - 2k
Differential gone - 2-3k
Dinan Exhaust gone - 1k

Not to mention springs, tires, rim, and anything else under there.

Also, lets not forget about labor.

[babafate]

that is inclusive of labor, also includes a 800.00 wheel, i figure your prolly running Dunlops or Pirelli's on there so i figured 260.00 for a new rubber.

again i cant tell from the pics the echaust mid pipes are bent, i personally dont see how the rear diff could be damaged, perhaps an axle shaft and seals. I figured both upper and lower control arms, all bushings, shock, spring, shock mount incase its mount was torn.

$4492.23 in parts as is (unseen obviousely)
$1361.60 sheet metal labor
$912.00 electrical/mechanical
$680.00 refinish

$2954.40 total labor

just my observations not bashin nothin.. I suppose though if i looked underneath the car the diff housing could be cracked at the axle entrance.
BMW's also have odd workings for crossmembers and such also. So unless they are replacing everything under there i dont see it getting to 22k. This rough estimate is written on ADP software, perhaps the shop that did your estimate uses something else. I sure hope insurance is covering this repair, cuz you dont want ot get stuck with a 22k bill replacing parts you dont need to.

[SuperHelix]

no, no Baba, I appreciate it, this is AWESOME.

My tires are PS 2 19's, $360 each .

We'll see the final total once they get it on the frame builder.

I'll let you know.

[Crippler]

that sucks

[barbos]

Screw the car, hope your spine is ok.

Aye Spines > Cars

Tell yea one thing if it's something that will hinder the rest of your life, I would sue for every dime he had and take his busted ass ford and his Dog... and pimp his wife out.
