Hey guys!! about 21 days ago, My car got pwned by large flying rocks fling from a gravel truck, extensively damaging the underside of my car along with my front bumper and my wheels were broken

as of today, I got my car back from the body shop!!!!, the insurance payed about 5000$ for it I think, I payed 1000

it turns out that a bunch of parts were needed to be replaced........I was so happy to get my car back that I turned it from this:



to........THIS:






I'm so happy!!~~~~~

 

congrats on getting your car back!

do you plan to lower it?

not my style of wheels, but whatever floats your boat

 

it was the best I could get for the buck..........and I am thinking of getting some great suspension mods, mostly I want grip

 

congrats... but I agree, those wheels don't look too good.

 

grip is good i have tein flex and i recommend them, but they dont go super low. i also hear hks hipermax rs is a good set up for being low, deff not ideal for racing tho

 

..........thanks, now I feel like an idiot

 

dude, no worries not everyone is going to like what you like, like bob says, " dont worry, be happy"

but def get that lowered asap!!!!

 

Nice MB body kit? which body shop did you go?Looks like the fitment is perfect!

 

DP auto body shop in long beach, and yea, the fitment is perfect, I know the shop though, they were very nice, and got stuff done fast

just so happy that I finally got my baby back!
I missed her so.............

 

dude dont feel like an idiot, its YOUR car not his congrats again on having your car back, enjoy it

 

Congrats on getting your baby back!

Keep the mods coming, and keep us informed.

As for the wheels...bling

Ed

 

looks nice, but again those rims are terrible..sorry.

 

*kills self* anyhow, the car feels much lighter now, for some reason, it feels like the car is less grippy, but it doesn't lose corners going 60 mph + though, it just feels very light, a little faster......like only a little

I think I'm gonna add a spoiler.......gotta go search
thanks all, I was starting to feel like **** from driving all those american sedans..........whats 65 mph?

 

That's some sweet work for 1k!! I work right next to the state "landfill" - lots of big *** trucks all the time . . . perhaps I should do some tampering & see if I can't get a body kit paid for . . .

Glad you got it back. The rims look good - I think it's the chrome look that turns most members off. Looks like they'll cover the (soon to be) rusty rotor hubs too!

dunno - 3 weeks & $1k seems like a reasonable trade off for all that work. lucky bastiche.

 

congrats, now drop it like it's hott. lol

 

looks much better.....not a huge fan of the rims either but the car in general looks damn good.....

 

Damn Gravel Trucks.. they should of done this sooner to you haha.. well the bodykit looks awsome the rims are so-so in my book not a fan of the pure chrome look.

Now for your next BIG MOD!!!!... Clear Corners!!

 

lol, guys, I just got even better news, my insurance called me up and said they were gonna REIMBURSE ME!!!!! they found the company whose truck is responsible and they said that they can get the damange paid for by the company's insurance, they said they can give me back my money in about 1-2 weeks!! so all this is gonna be free then!!!

its a beautiful day for me....... now I can use that 1k to finally buy some suspension mod and a good exhaust

lala~~~!

 

I'm kinda afraid of that, because I'm in california, I heard its illegal.......=.=

and please, don't reference me when you DO get pwned by a gravel truck and get a body kit.....lol

 

Just keep a pair of amber bulbs in there and you're ok. As long as they light up orange that's good enough for CA. I haven't been hassled yet.

 

take a pic of the back!

 

holy automatic transmission batman! that car looks good!

 

Congrats :D the kit looks very good, as clavius suggest get the clear corner. It will enhance the look of the car even more. Give Racing Beat a call I believe they have some clear corner in stock.

 

well, how do you know if the inside bulbs are yellow ..........errr I'm noob, I ma go search that out

 

If you get the JDM mazda ones they come with an amber bulb. Its instead of having a clear bulb in an amber corner. it just looks betta
