LetItRev · 2005-12-09, 01:24 AM

Damn! That stinks. Do you know who did it?

JC · 2005-12-09, 05:44 AM

That sucks man. Do you know who did it? Time for a Ver. 5 grill.

JonnydaJibba · 2005-12-09, 07:35 AM

Yeah some freakin slooz did it.

Nick Koan · 2005-12-09, 08:09 AM

Damn

Bob Danger · 2005-12-09, 12:10 PM

Anything other than cosmetic damage?

Kevin M · 2005-12-09, 02:06 PM

Been there done, that, had very similar damage done to my RS 2 summers ago. Here's some good news- you should be able to wrangle a $2500+ settlement out of it, less than half of which is needed for a CF hood and repairing the bumper skin.

That's a drag, man. Too bad revenge isn't an option. I'd drive out there to help.

sp00ln · 2005-12-09, 08:19 PM

haha! That sux! Same thing happened to me, but not THAT bad. I was in the car tho. Time for CF hood

Ezdno · 2005-12-09, 08:32 PM

man that sux! I can see cosmetic improvements in your future.

tysonK · 2005-12-09, 08:35 PM

Dang. Hope you can get out of it clean.

Bob Danger · 2005-12-09, 09:48 PM

I don't know if you should make an insurance claim. Wont it jack up you'r rates? Too bad you don't know who did it.

Kevin M · 2005-12-09, 10:22 PM

Nope, uninsured/underinsured motorist is a comp claim and doesn't affect you (unless you do it too often!). As long as you can tell the insurance company who did it anyway. It's obviously not his fault though, since his car was unoccupied and sitting still when it happened.

Libila · 2005-12-09, 10:49 PM

The D-bag that did it didn't leave their info, so State Farm claimed it as an uninsured motorist which won't affect my insurance, cut my deductable in half, and scores me a a sweet rental car

I meet with a claims agent on Monday. The quote I got from a paint and body shop prefered by State Farm quoted me around $2,000 for the damage, which is sweet. I tracked down a new L hood for $100 and a V5 grill is in the mail.

Bobby, I haven't popped the hood yet in fear of it not closing again. The State Farm Agent said if I get the quote and I find further damage such as a bent radiator mount they will cover it too, so I'm in good shape to go ahead and fix it myself.

My front end will look a little something like this next week-

Kevin M · 2005-12-10, 01:37 AM

Dude, spring for an RS hood. Even if it's CF it won't run more than $500 if you shop around. Splurge on her while you have the chance man!

khail19 · 2005-12-10, 07:56 AM

I think the L hood looks really clean with that grill.

I don't really want a CF hood though. I got the L hood for $100, and with all the money I'm saving sourcing my own parts I'll be able to get JDM tails, spats, V5 grill, and get all my stuff painted including my side skirts.

JC · 2005-12-10, 10:44 AM

You get extra money for your car and dump it all on cosmetics, you damn ricer Tim. haha

sp00ln · 2005-12-10, 11:18 AM

I really like that hood time, but JC has a point

Libila · 2005-12-10, 06:36 PM

Id rather spend money on cosmetics than NA mods. Let's face it, the NA EJ25 is going to be a slug no matter what. I've already got a swap savings fund going.

JC · 2005-12-10, 07:38 PM

Eh, I think a bolt-ons + cams RS would be a fun car. I'm just giving you are a hard time though. Ricers are just the ones that stop at cosmetic mods. Nice choice of mods btw, it's gonna be hot. What are rims are you rocking now?

Libila · 2005-12-10, 08:06 PM

I've got Poordrive P1's aka Rota Tarmacs. I want new wheels, but I'm not sure what I'm going to get. I really like the Wedsport SA-90s and of course Prodrive P1s.

I've been thinking about how fun ZZYX's 300 hp NA RS would be to drive. For a while this morning I was looking through the NA section and thinking about giving my motor some love.
