Well, I had my first crash with the stang and first car crash ever!! I was coming home from the movies with a friend, I was heading home down my side streets I was making a left turn when all of a sudden a car is riding down the street I was making a left turn on in the middle of the street!! I immediately try to slam my brakes and swerve to avoid him but I fishtailed and slid on some leaves I ran up the curb and was heading straight for a concrete wall.. at the last second I turned the car left and avoided the wall with a minor side swipe of the wall and this is the end results ;

I have a hole in the bumper right above the passengers headlight, the passengers fender is just dented a little bit ( hoping it can be fixed without replacing)... also my rim has a little curb rash but my goodyears took the majority of the hit as you can see in the pic, the pic isn't very good but what do you guys think it will cost to fix?

Im rather upset about this and the driver fled... a old guy came out of the house because he heard me side swipe his wall and asked if I was ok which I was but it could of been a lot worst.. if I didnt make that last turn at the end I wouldnt of been able to drive home.. it sucks because I was going to put it away for the winter this weekend!!!!! now this happens I just hope the cost to fix it isnt too pricey...

 

You've got about a 2200 dollar bill on your hand if you drop it off at a body shop and let em go to town.

figure 600 for a bumper cover + paint, 600 for a fender + paint, 150 for a headlight, and the rest for R&I and any hidden damage.

 

HOLY ****!

Bumper for my car is 100 bucks

 

my car had the same damage 2 months ago and it was supposed to cost 2600 but ended up costing 4400... the underlying damage is what nickel and dimed the project.

upgrade if you can dude. my car got another roush stage 3 put on for 400.

 

I would change the bumper to a Roush.

 

go to www.virtualbodyshop.com, buy your body panels there already painted for about 400 a panel.

 

lol... link is no good

 

anyone have any pics of a roush stage 3 bumper on my body style? also I would have to get the fog lights right? if so anyone know a site I can get everything from for a good price?

 

sorry to hear about the stang man.

 

so if I get the front fender from there its already painted and good to go? website doesnt work...

 

damn... I don't know if they're OOB or what... I got a few panels from them before. It was a pure bolt on and go kind of deal. They showed up well painted and properly wrapped.

 

the roush bumper comes complete from this company. this is where i purchased mine last year, i paid 425. some how the body shop got a better deal than i did a couple months ago.

heres a link to the bumper. mention FNSWEET.com and you will get a discount. if you want to see pics of black roush's go to fnsweet.com. some reason my IP is banned and i never been to their website after i got here in germany.

Do you have insurance?

BTW, look at my sig. That is a Rousch Bumper.

 

yes sir i do!

 

wow man. sorry too hear. Judging from the pics, that looks like it can be pretty costly though.

 

ya it sucks but wtf you gonna do... **** happens calling the insurance company tomorrow morning so well see

 

sorry to hear. Leaves can be a bitch.

 

glad to hear you're alright. Fenders can be replaced, people can't.

 

Guy in my local Mustang Club (Central Texas Stangs) has this up for sale:


He's asking $200 for it and is pretty firm on the price. It has fog lights and is in immaculate condition.

He's the link, you might need to join to view it:

^^^ thanks for the link I was thinking about just keeping it stock put im going to grab a roush stage 3 and throw it on ill keep you guys updated im going to the body shop tomorrow to get an estimate for the front fender..

 

the virtual body shop is on ebay as well

 

hmm the site isnt working I dont have an ebay account either..

 

what do you guys think about this...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-R...ayphotohosting

only $100 would this work? I cant seem to find virtual body shop on ebay..

 

my buddy also has a front bumper off his 02 GT...black for 150$

 

alright guys im about to order up the roush bumper.. now one final question my car is lowered with H&R SS's how lower will this bumper hanged compared to my stock bumper with a chin spoiler... because some driveways the chin spoiler would scrape and id have to go in at an angle..

 

look at slithers most recent pictures. he has ss springs and a roush front bumper.

 

H&R SS's i think are to low they look like a 2ich drop.

 

the ground clearance sucks!! but I love the drop with the 275s it looks and fit perfect with the wheel wells! I wouldnt have it any other way! there 1.7 front and 1.5 rear BTW

 

CORRECTION!

Donnie has eibach SPORTLINES!

 

your gonna have to take driveways at angles pretty much all the time.
