Someone hit my car
1 Attachment(s)
Hey everyone, tonight while at work a fellow employee came in and told me that his brother had just backed into my car. :shakes head: Anyways here is the damage, it fúcked up my fender pretty good and the clips for my bumper are shít now as well. I can't lose the bumper because of all of the modifications that I've done to it, there would be no way to "transfer" them to a new bumper. I want to get some cf paint matched vented fenders now so how would I make that happen? He has full coverage so I'm just wondering what should I do now.

Check your headlight! They crack easily |
Yeah when I went out to look at the car I turned on the headlights, driving lights, and blinkers and everything worked fine. I'm going to get an estimate tomorrow so we'll see what happens. The pic doesn't do it justice on the fender however. It looks like only the paint had been chipped but the a majority of it is dented and misshaped now which is why I was thinking of just getting after market fenders. Is that too must of a stretch?

Go aftermarket, why not? And I'd ask the guy if he wants to go out of pocket or through his insurance before you call and file. Btw, I'm not saying the light won't work, I'm saying that it'll let water in. |
^^ Agreed on the new fender. The less filler on your car, the better.
|
This is for you OP, just to make you feel better.

Sorry about that OP. :( At least it wasn't a hit and run. It takes a man to admit something like this. Throw on a new fender. The bumper looks like it can be repaired. Good luck.

:crying: Sorry to see and hear. :(
|
That is vicious, man. I'm siding with Elan on this one: it looks like the bumper can be repaired. Rock the new fender and keep the ball rolling. Sorry again for the trouble.:shakes head:
|
Looks like the bumper can be repaired, but there's a possibility the part that screws into the fender is ripped off.
|
Ouch!

Thanks everyone for the input. What was surprising to me was that the guy that hit me came and told me that he liked my new cf sideblades that I had just put onto my car. So he had obviously seen the car that day but somehow must have forgotten it was right behind him? But I will try and check my headlight for any cracks and let you guys know what happens

yeah I told him that we could go around insurance if he wanted to but he said for a car like mine he'd rather go through the insurance? Not exactly sure why but either way it will be fixed |
Wow.... Sorry too see that happen. Looks like the tab on your bumper cover might be torn. Glad to see him come let you know what happened.
