doesn't look too bad to me for the type of accident you claimed it to be....consider yourself and your car lucky


Also while you are at the shop, I recommend you have them wetsand by your license plate, get rid of some of that orange peel

Unhappy Sorry......

Adrian,

Sorry to hear about the accident......I know what you mean by the "The look on your daughters face", happened to me a long time ago. Glad everyone is fine and that they will recover. Bit of advise though, don't assume the money that this guys insurance will immediately offer you is going to cover the pain and suffering caused to your wife in the long run......that is the mistake me and my wife made. To this day every now and then she has these sharp pains coming from her neck that it stops her in her tracks! The car can be repaired, but not the family 100%. Take wifey to the doctors get several opinions and do whatever you can to make sure the her pains aren't going to be affecting her in the future. Let me know if you need anything. Talk with you soon.

Sorry to hear this, Adrian...no matter how hard you try to keep your Lex tip-top, somethings are just unavoidable. Most importantly, I'm glad that you and your family are okay.

Glad that no one was seriouslly hurt man,.....and I hope your wife's pain is only temporary. Like was mentioned earlier, I hope she gets a doctor to check it out for future reference!

Hope your ride gets back to former glory soon!!

thanx a lot guys, 3 cars were involved , i'll explain . a car jumped in front of me from the left and cut me off i hit the brakes to avoid them but the truck behind didn't stop in time and hit me than the car behind him hit him and he hit me again from his rear impact. trust me the damage look so much lighter than the hit felt like. i right away jumped to my back seat to check my daughter i than got out and was about to really go nuts but the people who cut me off stopped and were 2 girls so i stopped myself before doing something really stupid. if it were a guy who cut me off i don't know what i would have done to be honest. i'm going monday for another check up on my daughter and wife and will be speaking to a lawyer by thurs of next week probably.


also i'm glad you pointed out some orange peel in this "obvious" light hearted subject what a tool...

Wel, it's the holidays and probably more traffic than usual. I can see more accidents happening. Too bad it had to happen to you. I'm glad to hear everyone is doing OK for now. It is also good to hear you kept your cool. Although it is a pain to have to deal with it, I am sure the car will be fine soon enough. Things will work itself out so don't let it ruin the holidays and your first Xmas with baby.
