Congrats man, glad it turned out better than expected. I wrecked my Stang about a month or so ago, and it was definitely NOT a fun night for me either. All you can do is take a lesson from the incident, and move up (and upgrade!!! ). Hope the repairs happen smoothly and quickly, best of luck.

There you go, that's all you can do. Now, if you've wanted a new bumper, hood, or lights combo you can do it with ease! When I destroyed my throwout bearing a week ago, I almost ordered JUST a throwout bearing until I realized I should upgrade the entire clutch/flywheel combo since I'm in there already. Same work involved, but I came out with a much better clutch, AND a brand new TOB. The night I wrecked my car, I could hardly sleep - I was shaking like a damn leaf. After a day or so I was joking about it and realizing that it could've been worse. The good thing is you weren't injured. Cars can be repaired or replaced, that's something to learn for sure.

Well that was not my intention. Here all this time I thought my body shop was slow but had great prices, guess I was way wrong. Hell, even my Fox had its hood flipped up. It needed a new hood and some minor cowl work as well as two dimples on the roof. They said $3800 to fix and they totaled it.

Guess I should be used to getting raped by now.

I had an accident that resulted in similar damage. the cause of mine was driving too fast in the rain and hydroplaning. they didn't total mine.

Is the back of that right headlight still in tact or is it all shattered?

ABS is not a big deal.

You can stop faster without ABS than you can with ABS, you just don't have the steering control without it.
