Screw all that. I'll splurge for some new ones when the time comes.

I got hit by a Super Duty crew cab with a gooseneck trailer. Knocked my bumper cover completely off, buckled my hood up, damaged the radiator support, and at least one inner fender apron, not to mention the fender. I just hope they don't total it. If they don't, then I'm going to try to get either a 99-01 or 03-04 cobra bumper, and either a 00 R hood or just a small cowl. But I'm getting ahead of myself at this point.

It didn't set off airbags and there doesn't seem to be any frame damage but I know that's hard to tell. I got it to the guy that's going to fix it, I'm going to see what he thinks about it this morning.

I don't quite feel like making a thread about it yet.

Freakin' diesels think they own the road, . They are tough until you get out of your vehicle! Over-compensating diesels FTMFL!

Sorry about the accident. Hopefully it's not totaled. Glad that you are ok. I understand that you didn't want to talk about it. Good luck with everything. Pearl02.

Who's fault was it?

When I wrecked mine last October, it was a blessing in disguise. My headlights were in ****ty condition, my fogs didnt work, and my hood was trashed due to retarded decals literally being cooked into the paint. I got my 01 cobra bumper, 2000 R hood, brand new headlights, and fresh paint all paid for by the other idiot's insurance.

Im so glad I got into that accident
