Ohhh Nooo's fender got a fender bender!

Well boys i was involved in a little fender bender on Wednesday around 1:30 PM.

Was heading North on Airport road (was going to get some lunch) At the intersection of Derry and Airport a jack *** driver on his CELL PHONE ran the red light and brushed my front bumper! than proceeded to smash into a Ram 1500 pick up and spun it.

To say the least im thankful no one was hurt. Well the jack *** driver was still on his phone even after he got out of his Toyota Sienna.

The 8 has some sick brakes, another foot and i would have been T-boned at atleast 80 KM/Hr.

No metal damage on the car, only the front bumper broke cause his wheel rubbed on the very front of the bumper.

So my babies at Phoenix Auto Body in Brampton.....

Good news.......... I gots a brand new AUTHENTIC MS FRONT and they are re-paiting the door i got keyed and the side skirt i scractched on a curb, Didint have to pay a cent of deductable as the guy who broke the red was charge for breaking the red light and it was labelled as his fault.

^ Glad you're ok. Good to hear that you're turning a negative into a positive. How much for the authentic MS front?

Yeah they bought from Brampton Mazda. 1530 + tax for it.

they ordered it since they dont have them in stock. they said around 5 days so i figured around Friday i should get the car back.

Thank goodness you were in the RX-8. Any other car and you'd have been creamed by the guy.
