Bad Weekend
 

Dam California road gator got me! I was on the freeway and the car in front of me ran over something and kicked it up into my car. Destroyed the bumper and scratched the hood :(

Ouch sry to see man

Thanks

Oh well, at least you have insurance.... I hope lol. Hey, at least if you get a new bumper you won't have the license plate holes anymore

Definitly file an insurance claim on that one. Fascia alone is $700~$800. Not counting paint/body work, emblem and any other repair work.

Ya, and even better my deductible is $100. I was thinking the same thing about the license plate holes. And the body shop said they would put on a new clear bra for the bumper.

Now you can say your crashed into a alligator with your Z

Itll be back up and running in no time!

I imagine something like this doesn't raise your insurance right?

Not on a comprehensive claim. Just a collision claim. I'm an insurance agent for Mercury.

Dang sorry man!

Thanks

Ouch!

make sure the shop can put on another vin sticker.

You know I was looking at that and I gotta tell the shop.

Dang Brian sorry to see that... You're making me paranoid now.

Ya Henry, watch out. Haha. We were leaving the underground parking lot and getting on the freeway. What kills me is that I was gonna take surface streets home, but wanted to cruse with some homies for a min. and followed them on the freeway.

:eek: Damn sorry to see that. When I bought my first Z, 24 days after I bought I get hit by a blown semi tire. Destroyed the passenger side of the car. So I feel your pain.

Ouch. That sucks. Some things we just have no control over. I hate looking at the damage then I get in and start her up and see the 4500 miles on the odometer and start to cry.

Bummer man.. hope she gets fixed up soon!

To make it worse and a bigger kick in the nuts from Henry Fords ghost ( former ford guy)...2 weeks after the damage from the tire was fixed, we got softball size hail. It beat the hell out of the car. That Z was cursed and was gone shortly after that.

Damn that sucks. 2 months after I got my Z I got caught in a hail storm. Luckily the 370 is built like a tank and no damage occurred. I also pulled over as quickly as possible but there were no overhangs to seek shelter where I was at. I got sit in the Z and listen to the pellets ding off the car. Worst experience ever!

I would shave the front emblem and incorporate a lip into the front bumper if mine ever got damaged like that. In your case you get to skip the front lip part.

Was thinking of having the emblem filled in, but for some reason I like it blacked out on the white Z.

I had a nitemare about this happening to me last night! haha only it was a washington road gator haha seeing the nismo damaged like that hurts inside :(

I almost S**T myself today! I walk out to my car after work and there's a nail sticking out of the back tire FML. Wasn't in far and no leak yet, but I guess I'll find out in the morning.

That's just a scratch,I fix stuff worst than that at my shop, fix that bumper so the color match is easier plus you can fill in the license plate holes and the fit will be spot on.
Just cause you may get a OEM new bumper doesn't mean the fit will be the same as yours.

Not much of a choice. There's a chunk of the grill missing also. You can't see it in the pic.

Oh OK then replace the cover :tup:

I really wish it didn't have to get done. Trust me.

Shave the bumper and delete hamburger. Then sell me hamburger so I can experiment ;)

-From my phone, to space, and straight to your face.

Really sorry dude.
Let us know how the repair process goes.

Ill see if I can grab the one that's on there now.

Thanks, will due.

Get that insurance money and grab King12Sky's zele bumper! =P

Naw, I love the Nismo body kit. His is nice just not my style.

Least your getting full bra etc..

Ever though of painting mouth full black, to include the lip? I guess that's if you were going for a black and white theme..

Ya im on the edge with that one. I like the black vinyl just because its not permenent, so i may do that eventually.
