Fender Bender

Got in a fender bender tonight going to that shop on Spring Mountain for some new white bulbs... Damn these tailights are gonna cost alot more than I planned... lol...

My V3 front bumper is now useless for the most part... Might try to do something custom now, who knows...

Anyway, I need a new V3 front asap... Where should I go? Who is the best Veilside guy?

My hood is also outta comission. Good thing I have my new one on the way. Oh wait... that one got lost at McCarren (just found that out this afternoon)... How do you lose a hood...?

Damn today was great!!!

I wish that I could say that I was hit, but the truth is I reacted too slow to this girl in front of me who slammed on her brakes and BAM... Damage isnt horrible but still sucks...

BTW, anyone recommend a shop in town to do my insurance appraisal... Someone that will do a real good job

Right now I am going to a place called Sudden Impact on Boulder Hwy. Anyone heard of it?

Also, I am gonna get them to get me another aftermarket hood, and I am gonna sell it to one of you fine gentlemen... Anyone here lookin for a new hood? NAme your style...

I've used Green Valley Collision on Gibson 3 times. If you go, ask for Dave and tell him I sent you.

So the car is overheating now as well. Didn't get a chance to look at it but I assume I cracked the radiator as well. Might as well upgrade to an aftermarket one. Anyone have any advice as to which is a top of the line model? Anything else needed for a performance radiator, new T-Stat?

I've got the thin Koyo (still twice as thick as stock). I did my T-stat, hoses and pulleys all at the same time. It easiest to do those parts while the radiator is out of the car.

Looks like a Koyo. AMS is in Canada, so shipping might take a while.

Hey Chris dont feel so bad about your fender bender.....I got rear-ended on monday afternoon....some lady in a minivan....not too much damage...more of a love tap actually.....she knocked loose the rear valence and took out a couple chucks of the fiberglas and cut my bumber with her license plate. Should be a smooth fix....Ronnies got my back over at desert collision so i am not worried (too much, lol).
