yea, so i get in a accident saturday...my car ended up under the bumper of a navigator, old lady stop short *bam* my hood and bumper is fucked, no damage to the nav...anyways...

does anyone have an idea of estimates for the cost to get the front of the car's chassis straightened...kinda been pushed back some not much but enough where the bumper doesnt line up with the side screws.

any info is appreciated...will be calling around in a week once i get back home but just wondering in the time being.

might not neccessarily be your frame. Could just as easily be your bumper supports. Not %100 on how Honda's are setup.. and i dont have one to look at right now.. nor can i see the actual damages to yours. If you went under her bumper, i highly doubt you did any real damage to it. good luck with it though.

There is always 2 ways to everything, lol

My friend Lester paid out his ass to have the unibody streightened at a shop using their floor mount hydraulic streightener.

I used my own on my hb though and it was free.

I seriously used my nissan truck in 4 low and just bump pulled it in the direction of were it needed to go.
It was in a 2 ditch accident and needed some serious alignment.
The truck did the trick and streightened it up . . No joke!
You just have to take your time.

Hope this helps.

a trailor park, hahaha NICE!

Neh, I'm a city boy, but, I'm just a good ol' fashion "urban redneck" as well!

Guns, beer, bikes, and babes! Yeeeeefukin'Haaaaawww!

Now, on a serious note: The "truck streightening" took us less than an hour and like I said, it was just about dead nuts perfact when we were done, with the exception of a few new scratches. Just measure like a mo fo!!!

Oh, and you should have seen the 4wd burn marks I left in mom and dad's driveway, hahahahaha . . suckers!
