Not taking it as a threadcrap, but this part of the highway has a split between 4 lanes, 2 and 2. Left side continues down the highway, right side goes to another one. It was obvious I was trying to get to the left and continue down, but in this case the guy was just being a douche. He could have easily let me slip by and been right where he left off. He was at a stop and when he saw me trying to merge, he started to pinch me in.

I know I ****** up though. I'm over that part already. I'm just looking to get it fixed up at this point.

Thanks for the input guys, I'm working with a buddy of mine to get it fixed up. I'm still deciding between OEM and aftermarket, mainly looking at Stillen, but I'll be going through my insurance with whatever I end up doing. It just sucks that my deductible is so high... lol

Learn sumthing new every day. Guess I'll wait around some more for the insurance company to catch up on my motorcycle accident from 2005.

Never heard that one before... So the days of paying out of pocket for minor fender benders to avoid rate increases is gone?????? Wonder if that's a state thing, or nationwide. I have paid oop for 2 in the last 3 years for my kids, and my insurance has never increased. (the same car, titled to me) Also, neither one of them reported a hike in insurance rates because of it....???? Also, an FYI, Rockauto.com has OEM bumpers ready to paint for some models of the Z at $180

If a police report is filed and it's your fault cause the accident. It will be under your record and it's just matter of time for insurance company to find out. I ran stop sign and caught by the police last year. I didn't contact my insurance company but I am wondering why my insurance rate went up.

Looks like u can just buff it off man, dont worry as long as ur alright its just a piece of metal, which can always be replaced by an even better piece of carbon. First time i crashed i was pissed like u, started swapping parts,now if i brake it, i cant wait to fix it.

If this is as sad as your life's been you've had a good run. Count your blessings.

AFAIK, all states record accidents on your DMV if a police report was done by the cops, or if an accident report was filed by the involved drivers as required by most state laws (if damage exceeds a certain level, which thus one certainly does). How your insurance company interprets the DMV is the variable. Some might care about how much the accident cost them, some might care as whether it's a chargeable or non-chargeable accident, some may allow a certain number of chargeable accidents before raising rates. They view long-term customers differently as well as other risk factors including age, marital status, gender, length of time with company, and how much money you spend with them every year (ie, how many other vehicles you insure).

Progressive has been pretty good to me over the past 5 or so years. I had one accident 4 years ago (pretty much the same thing as this. 5mph collision that messed up my hood and bumper) and when it came time to renew my rate for 6 months went up by about $20. I'm hoping the same holds true this time.

I promise you, it's not because they love you. It's because they have coldly measured the financial risk you pose them and they've decided that, overall, they can make money on you.

So after some consideration, I'm thinking to go for the Seibon OEM style carbon fiber hood and the Stillen kit for the bumper. I still have a few days to decide but this is probably what I'll end up doing. If not it'll just be full OEM replacements.

OP,

I can't say I do not understand what you are feeling right now but this will not remain the sadest day of your life forever. You will recover from this just fine.

The sadest day of my life lays ahead of me. I lost my best dog, later my father, and when my mom goes, this will be the saddest day of mine.

Good luck.
