Well, tonight wasnt a good night for me. Started off ok, but then it started to rain, and rain it did. It was pouring, went to go get the groceries, on the way back there was a ford taurus up on the median, I guess he got cut off and hydroplaned up onto it. well anyway about 10ft later were coming to a stoplight, only I didnt stop, I hydroplaned into a z28 my poor poor civic.

Pics will come tommorrow when its not raining.

im fine, but I dont know about my car. if my car is considered totalled(which I highly doubt that), I found a hatchback I will be owning but I know my baby will be just fine, suprisingly, the only thing on the front of my car not damaged, is the lip go figure

damn when i seen the title I knew this wasnt good at all. That sucks man, its great that at least your not hurt, and you can count your lucky stars on that..

w/ that said all you can do is pick up from where you left off tomorrow and handle your situation.

?'s

1. Did you have full coverage or liability?
2. Do you want your car back, or you want a hatch.

IMO
1. If you have full coverage and still want your car, take it to a shop where they let you decide what parts go back on. Not just stock parts etc...

2. If you dont want the car back, take it to a high end autobody shop and have it totalled out..If your airbags deployed its not a difficult thing to do.

Once we see pics that will justify all of this for you. Sorry to hear that man, sucks to hear this shit happening to people.

full coverage, air bags didnt deploy, I would love to get rid of the car, but I dont think I can do that unless it's totaled which I dont belive it is. I found a dx hatch, that had an ex swap done to it w/ catback, and skunk2 lowering springs, which was in nice condition, but I dont know what to do... you can help me out once I show you all the pics tomorrow.

THANK GOD you have full coverage. If the airbags didnt deploy consider your car saved, Id scrap the Hatch Idea. However nows your time to put in some CTR style lights, and a CF hood, and get your grill back. Plus the bumper will be painted this time.

It just sucks that you didnt wait to fix your bumper, that would have been money saved from before.

And yeah, we got you. If its one thing I know its body damage. I've been through alot of shit like this man. Dont sweat it!
