yeah so today at work the parking lot was a solid sheet of ice, no problem for me, sure i played around...when it was empty.
the lot stayed icey all day due to shade and after lunch one of my coworkers comes up to me and tells me he hit my car . what happend was he tried to park but due to the ice ended up sliding right into the back of my 7 with his toyota pick up. its gonna be a spendy fix, but atleast i dont have to pay for it lol

shattered my right tail light, buckeld my rear courter pannel and a few other dints

 

Wow, bad luck!! Sorry to hear... Didn't you just get that thing back on the road?

 

yeah its only been running for a month and i just broke in my clutch lol

 

Damn... Now you'll have some fresh paint to go with the fresh clutch

 

yeah, i gotta get a few quotes from autobody shops to give the guy so he can give it to his insurence. hopefully they will fix the few other dings on the car as well

 

next time just set up cones about 20 ft around your car to allow them time to stop. o yeah use police tape with the cones and maybe a midget dressed up like a ninja. jk i still need to fix my aliment from last winter when i slide in to a curb

 

You coul;d always park in the middle of 9 spaces and vconme off ht e3 in front of you and back of you and the 3 on either side of you. That woudl keep people away. Sucks thoguh man at least you aren't paying for it though.

 

yeah i have a apointment tomorrow at a autobody shop to get a quote on the damage, i also have another car lined up to swap my stuff in if i get enough money from insurence, its funny cause its my twin car just super clean

 

Atleast he told you rather than you finding it after work and no one around to blame. You should still kick him in the nuts though.

What's funny is the people in the vehicles that aren't considered good snow/ice vehicles never wreck and the idiots with the suvs, pickups, etc, are the first ones to wad it up on an icy road, mainly because they, for some unknown reason, think that 4 wheel drive will stop you faster.

 

haha yeah

 

the damage is more than the car is "worth" accoridng to insurence, guess what that means.. they ******* totaled it out

 

"Bean Counters"

 

huh?

anyways im already in process of getting a shell

 

how the **** did they total it out?
there is no way some fender damage is worth more than the car. I mean its a good, clean, running FD, that should be atleast 9K. But on another note can you buy the car back from the insurance and do the repair work yourself?

 

when did he say it was an fd? Judging by his myspace addy in his profile it appears he has an 88. And ****, you should be happy they did, that just gives you a chance to part it out and take the money from insurance to put all that money into a new one.

 

Correct, it's an FC, not an FD

 

Oh my bad. I thoght it was an FD. Guess I should stop reading posts when I'm drunk.

 

haha yeah lol, the one that got hit was my 89 gtu/TII swaped one, my 88 blew up a while back. im planning on picking up a new shell this week and putting my stuff into it.

 

i pulled the motor and tranny tonight along with the whole front end pretty much, why is the bumper such a pain in the *** to remove? it was the hardest thing i did today wtf lol
