Thats how I feel, less than 3k miles and coming up on a year of ownership. For me icing on the cake was a guy running me off the road on Wed. last week and getting away. Now I have a f'd up front bumper and CF lip that has to be replaced. I am probably selling mine for sure once I get the bumper fixed and lip replaced.

Yep im fine thanks man. The damaged was actually caused by the grass being 3ft tall. It was a curb less median. The guy pulled out of a parking lot ( I swear he looked right at me ) and came right at me. Natural instinct made me avoid the accident, only place I had to go was the median. I slammed on my brakes but I wasn’t stopping quick enough so I went into the median, it was the only choice, besides him T-Boning me.

The grass was so thick I almost got stuck. I really didn’t even think anything was damaged. I lost him in the mix of things then pulled over to check it out. The grass caused a plowing effect and popped both corners of the front bumper out where it meets the fenders, and cracked the lip all the way through just off dead center towards the driver’s side. Small chip of paint/fiberglass gel coat came off drivers side of the bumper.

Damage really isn’t that bad thank god, but that parts are so rare and take forever to get. Bumper can be fixed with ease, lip has to be new.

I called the Cops they said since the guy didn’t hit me they can’t do anything. My insurance told me the best I could do is get my deductible back if I got a court order for the video tapes from the McDonalds he almost hit me in front of. Problem is my rates would still go up because I had an "accident" by hitting tall grass......so im just paying for it myself.

As my motto says Live in Learn in the future im going to close my eyes and let the tard hit me. This has happened hundreds of times in my life so far driving but never had damage. Now that I know how it works the Laws are so stupid, at least in Florida.

if i did part it out i would lose out from shipping all the crap back to the states and no one locally would be insane enough to buy my parts id probably get lectured why my prices are so insane if i would sell my parts.... i can imagine me tryna sell my varis hood and some douchebag tells me **** dude i can get a brand new seibon hood for 600 bucks from ebay!!! your freaking high trying to sell your **** for 2k.... most of my conversations with my z with other car enthusiasts ends with me trying my best not to be upset because they say something stupid to me like... this has to be the best one yet...

guy:damn man nice car....
me:thanks dude.....
guy:do you race it?
me:nope not anymore....
guy:how much were your inside pieces?
me:which one?
guy:everything?

at the time i was having a conversation with the dude i didnt know how much all in all i spent so i decided id tell him separately

me:center console $900 steering wheel $650 hand brake $250 dash hat 150

the dude interupts me and says damnnnnnnnnnn

me:its a expensive hobby....
guy: you do know you got ripped off right?
me:excuse me?
guy:yah man you definitely got ripped off.... you know that you can buy all that stuff from ebay right? i got mine for $150 for my accord and its easy to install you just prep the surface with alcohol and stick them on....

me:they arent stick on pieces most of them are molded on

guy:they look the same to me... if i had my accord i could show you...
me:no **** dude?
guy:yah man definitely because you know i work on my car by myself i dont like paying people to install my parts or buy my parts... i order them myself..

at this point the corner of my eye was freaking twitching i was so angry and wanted to tell this idiot off since i knew that i wouldnt win the battle with this guy.... i pretty much made his car the hero so he would walk away already before he left i said...

me:bro you should show me your car one day i would like to see your hardwork
guy:ill be entering the car show coming up im pretty sure im gonna place since ive done alot of work on my accord (this is the show i placed first in jdm category)
me:nice man ill see you there

none the less i saw that douche bag at the show with the rest of his crew and they were all mocking me saying how i got ripped off with what i payed for my parts.... all in all i walked away since they werent worth my time or my spit trying to explain why everything cost that much....


i saw his "show stopper" accord.... needless to say my lug nuts looked better than his whole car....
