and I get run into by a 4wd. At the time I was doing a grand total of no kph and had been doing nothing for about 10secs. She just accelerated out a sidestreet looking the other way and straight into me. No brakes no skidmarks, she was still accelerating when she hit. Do'h!

 

Look on the bright side, thats minimal damage coulda been a lot worse.

 

Look on a brighter side... Its your chance to get aftermarket bumper, vented hood, and slick lights.

 

Could have been a whole lot worse.

 

Very very true. I've only had it for 6 weeks and its been in getting a new motor for three of those weeks and for one of those weeks I've had a new motor so had to drive nice and slow. Now its going to be in some panel shop for the next 2 or so weeks. Oh well, it could have been worse.

 

I can see it now, Feed Type II front bumper, Rotary Extreme Headlight kit, Knight Sports hood, and clear side lenses Just pay off the difference, it shouldn't be too much. Awesome idea FD-Fever. It just sucks that it happened to you, good luck.

 

Doesn't look so bad but still its damage to your baby! I totally understand. Good luck getting it fixed or upgraded

 

it does not look that bad, you should be able easily fix it. still, that sucks

goodluck

 

Hmm....so.

You were hit by a WOMAN in an SUV?

Funny that a lot of "wreck stories" I hear on the automotive forums across the net always seem to involve these two factors....

 

Damn, that sux.
Time for 99 spec front and RE sleek headlights!

 

Yeouch. I can only hope that happens to me.

I want the 99' Spec too.

Just kidding.

I was rearended in my Celi by a lady in a Jeep Cherokee last year, too!!!

 

What a PIA! Pick a good body shop....Match shade of red. 3 Months after I puchased my '89TII new, I was parked and a young fellow backed into the right front. Needed bumper cover, headlight door... It took the dealer 4 times to get it right. Now hairline cracks in cover. Didn't use the correct mix.
Good Luck

 

hell yea!
99 spec front
re amemiya lights
mazdaspeed hood

 

haha it appears we have similar tastes

 

too many women in SUV's that don't know how to drive on the road. Bad combination for small car owners everywhere.

 

at least all of you dont have fat chinese women in vans running around..

almost every other car is one of those where i live.. scarrrrrry

 

Down with SUVs!!!! Grrrr pisses me off the most then you see some tiny soccer mom is driving along in her Excursion talking on her cell phone while the kids beat the hell out of one another in the backseat. Oh well...

But the damage doesnt look too bad... And people have pointed out the bright side already. You have a reason to get 99 front bumper or whatever... Just make sure to have a good shop do the work for you...

 

Ouch those pics hurt! Hope you get her back together real soon....lots of money to spend in the NEXT 6 weeks.

 

if it makes you feel better mike, I've been rammed twice in six months by delivery vans at work.... and guess how much a factory efini rear bumper costs

Did they pay for the damages or just drive off?
Out of curiosity, how much is a bumper?

 

I like the rex like it is (was ) but I'm open to suggestions, what do these look like? Is there somewhere I can see them?

She was quite cute though

 

YEAH . JUST BE HAPPY CAUSE IT COULDVE BEEN ALOT WORST . WHAT DID THE WOMEN SAY AFTER SHE HIT YOU ???

 

She said sorry a few times, she said she thought it was a one way street and that she thought the light was green (the light was a pedestrian crossing just after the intersection). She seamed to be accepting the blame but you never know.

 

1 drove off, the other doesnt have any money So it's still ongoing. Price is totally determined by whether I can find one in the country. Currently looking at at least $1200!

Sorry about the wreck mate, glad your okay, could have been worse.
looks like your on walkabout now.
