bastard backed into me. MORE PICTURES

[kustomcougar]

well i went to the gas station to get some smokes and i pull in, stop, within 2 seconds some ass hole backed right into me, it was a piece of crap 90 something stratus with a hitch :crazy: he backed into me and the hitch took a chunk out of my rear rim and this is the damage to the rear bumper and roush valance :mad: i'm so glad he didn't hit the quarter panel at all. just scratched the bumper and valance, left some paint scratches so it just has to be repainted, and the hit to the rim bent my rear lower suspension arm so i have to get a new one of those also, and the guys friend was in another car and the guy came over and crabbed the guys pot and left with it so he wouldn't get in trouble for it. i gotta call his insurance and get the $500 from his insurance on monday but that will only pay for the bumper and valance to be painted

take it to a body shop get all damage estimated and send the whole bill to his insurance it'll cover it all man....don't get screwed! that sucks too. get a new rim as well if that **** is bent it'll never balance right.

[kustomcougar]

ya it took a nice chunk out of it and the was shaking a little bit so it did bend it, his insurance will pay for the whole thing even if he has no fault?

[h-town-cougar]

Yeah, if your rim is bent they HAVE to replace it! Get it fixed at a shop under HIS insurance

[Naturaltal3nt]

should i mean he hit you....well your in michigan i dk....just call his insurance and explain to them the damage the circumstances and they'll tell you waht you can do and what will be covered but it all should be covered if he hit you....plain as day he's "at fault" he hit your car soooo....did you call the cops? hope so

[kustomcougar]

i have to get a new rim cause of the chunk missing, i found a new one for $200 shipped to the discount tire sepot, and i pick it up the next day. so i'll be going monday to get an estimate for the complete damage, including the rim, alignment, and the rear suspension arm

[kustomcougar]

ya i did, i got the report number from the cop

[Naturaltal3nt]

def man good stuff....good luck with that too...

[kustomcougar]

how would i go through his insurance to get a new rim?

[Naturaltal3nt]

just tell them the rim was damaged and isn't repairable and give the shop the website to get a new one so they can include it in the quote.

[Naturaltal3nt]

make sure you get a copy of the police report asap his insurance will want it

[kustomcougar]

you have to wait 3 days to get it from the police report

[kustomcougar]

and since the ass clown backed into my rim the steering wheel is cocked to the left, like between the 11 and 12 oclock position, but i'm hoping that is from the bent rear control arm

[burton160w]

Well I'm not a lawyer, but you may come into a slight issue.

Depending on what state your in - parking lots are considered automatic no fault.

[MOMO]

get your tail light cover painted while you are at it.

Definetly might hit a snag with that. All of damn california is no fault.

[kustomcougar]

a few months back a guy backed into my girlfriends car in a parking lot and his insurance paid for everything to get fixed plus the rental car, so i'm hoping it goes the same

[kustomcougar]

get your tail light cover painted while you are at it.

i will :tongue:

[montauk]

i keep telling you man, i will paint em for you.


and "oh, you f*cked up now!":rofl:

i would have beat that stoner if it was my car he backed into. he's lucky i didnt drive.

[branchedout]

good reason to stop smoking :crazy:

[Comando489]

i think i drive better when i'm smoking. :shrug: it makes you focus more on the fact that you are driving :rofl: drinking and driving is a different story.

(even if i do get into a ton of accidents that are not my fault. :()

that sucks man, at least he didn't drive away.

since you get in a ton of accidents, you got any advice?

[Naturaltal3nt]

haha pay attention 99% are avoidable if yur paying attention..:crazy:

[kustomcougar]

what? i was sitting in my car in a parking spot getting change from my center console, guess i'm the 1%

[Naturaltal3nt]

no that was meant for the other guy that gets in a lot of accidents not you lol sorry should've said that

[kustomcougar]

well i'm taking it in the paint shop in the morning, it's shouldn't be more than $300-$350 to repaint the rear bumper and roush valance, and the rim is $213.50 shipped to discount tire, plus alignment and rear lower control arm. so i'm hoping his insurance will pay for everything and not just give me $500 cause he has no fault

[Comando489]

since you get in a ton of accidents, you got any advice?

two were in both my high schools and colleges parking lot, when some one hit me while i was moving and they both turned out that the other driver was at fault and the police report said something similar. both were paid for by the others persons insurance company.

one was when i backed into my friends neighbors car:banghead: and i ended up giving him my information and i also called my insurance company and i believe that they will end up paying for the damage i did to his car.

with my experience in NY just get the other persons insurance and you will have no problem getting your car fixed even if it

[kustomcougar]

that last part of your post cut out

[giants_0023]

nice paint man.

[kustomcougar]

nice paint man.
:crazy: but anyway the damage is a little over $1,200 and his insurance is paying for everything because i was parked. i gotta go pick up the rim in toledo soon but i'm keeping the damaged one as a spare

[SkorpioLT]

well it kinda turned out pretty good see now you have a spare that matches all your other rims :rolleyes:

[Naturaltal3nt]

good stuff bro! when you get the tire swapped have them balance the bent rim without the tire first. then keep the wieghts on it and if you ever need it atleast it'll be close to being balanced before the tire....follow me?

got ya, now if i ever get a flat i actully have another tire that matches the other ones, unlike the all black donut in the trunk

[SkorpioLT]

good luck fitting it in instead of the donut tho =$

[Comando489]

ohhhh and make sure you check the box that says that you want all the broken parts back or else they will just take them to the junk yard (your rim included)

[kustomcougar]

check for the full amount of damage is in the mail:banana:
