Hey, did the frame get damaged? It seems like a lot of the damage was isolated to the upper areas/body panels of the car. I'm not sure if the insurance co will total it unless your whole roof is jacked or the frame of the car got bent up.

Well, the inside of the hood is sort of bent where the steel line is on the edge.
but the insurance guy said if it had high mileage (125,000) then they will most probably total it!
I am searching for a black/beige GS. this time hopefully with a NAVI!
BTW can i also get some wiring done to get it to recognize dvds and show dvds while i drive??

My old Intrepid suffered frame damage and my insurance co. decided that it was a total loss. Judging by NANOTECH's pics, it appears there may be no frame damage. But hey, after my accident, to me it seemed that there was no frame damage until the car was jacked up and boom there it was.

Just got a call from the insurance guy saying they TOTALED the vehicle!!

I will try to take some parts of like the front MOUNTED Greddy Lip, Veilside skirts, Veilside Rear bumper from the junkyard, or probably the insurance company if they will sell it to me!

Spent a pretty dime on this car and after two days I got it back from the body shop BAM!!! Just can't get over it!

anyways, I am looking for a BLACK/BEIGE GS400 with NAVI (if possilbe) so if anyone know someone selling please pm me!

Yeah that must be tough to swallow. A freak accident just days out of the shop. Good luck on your search for another GS.
