well today on my way to work my car was hit.
i wasnt even moving, they were exiting a driveway of a gas station and i was one lane over, AMPLE room for a 2005 toyota camry to manuveur a basic turn, but alas.. my right rear corner panel was apparently in her direct path. to add insult to injury she proceded to continue driving INTO my car till about MID-PASSENGER SIDE DOOR!!!
well i, for some reason, remained calm and just got out of my car. i guess i was just in shock that someone could be so ga-tarted. well it looks like i will need a new quarter panel. the door can be repaired i believe.
a police report was filed and i got her ins. information (hell no im gonna take a risk with keeping this unofficial with a arkansanian driver, so many people out here drive with no lisence or insurance it is truly scary) and im going to have to wait for an insurance rep to come and inspect the damage. im lucky i didnt have the brand new rear bumper on there as well, cause she prolly would have damaged that as well.
but its wierd. im pissed but at the same time im kind of like thinking about what i can do to make this better, since i need a new quarter panel i was thinking either an insurance paid for OEM paint job or (with tips from shawn and dustin) a complete exterior flat black enamel paint job.
but on a good note i got my JDM two piece headlamps in and will be test fitting them later tonight.
*and for those who keep up with my ride.. yes my JDM tail lights went un harmed in this ordeal*
i will try to get pics later on as i had to take some with the disposable i keep in my car for just this very reason. and i reccomend everyone else do the same. YOU NEED TO DOCUMENT EVERYTHING! the ins people are some dicks sometimes..........
stay tuned im sure ill dump more info about this shit here later
