Default Crashed 2IS

well... this girl made a left while being "distracted" as i was going straight according to the police report. I was so furious i didnt speak to her i jus started flippin out... in general.

Driver and Passenger side air bags were deployed... never been in an accident where air bags deployed... nastiest taste and smell ever

According to the Body Shop it should take about two weeks to fix... no estimate as of yet

and im OK, air bag burn, and a son pain in my shoulder...

Glad you are okay, frank. Man that doesn't look to repairable to me. Hate to get that car back after the bodyshop. What are the chances that the insurance company will write it off?

Man, I just hope that the car looks nastier than it really is. Really glad that you're OK . Car looks repairable to me, but with the airbags going off on both sides, would you really want it back. Was always told that once they have been hit they will never be the same. I qould question insurance about new car.

LX = good


sorry to hear about the accident. At least you can now say you were in a lexus wreck on that thread.

hopefully it comes back in better condition then it was before the "distracted" girl hit it.
