hey guys

i hot in an accident 5 cars i was the first car to get hit it not major i was in traffic and some bitch comes and crashs into my back makin me hit the car infotnt of me and so on

now my back bumper, rear valance if ****ed my right exhaust if twisted and i think the mid pipes too not sure what happend beyond that and from the fron beside the licence plate the nothing seems damaged except that the whole front bumper is just a bit of of place.
now i dont like to see my car like that waiting for it to get fixed now but i ve notices that the two gapes between the hood and the side of the car seems to be bigger than before or maybe am imaging that also the left side of the car is just a bit above the hood where is the right side of the car is almost exactly the same. u cant really tell but i know there is somethin wrong there


for pics

Without seeing pics, my first guess is that you need to determine if the chassis/frame is bent or if it's just superficial damage.

can't say about the rear and what may be damaged, you'd have to get a mechanic to get a look under it. It looks like your exhaust took the worst of it though.

As far as the front bumper/fender where it meets sticking out, you can push that right back into place. Mine does that on it's own on really hot days. Just pushes itself out. In fact in my sig pic it's out lol. Thinkin of sticking a pop rivet or two in there...

Best you can do on your own is a visual inspection for cracks...If the frame is bent you're not gonna see it with your eyes unless it's REALLY bent. From the looks of the car though it really looks like a minor thing. I would guess your frame is just fine. But have the dealer check it out when they take it.

it hurts so much lookin at the car like that u know, if the frame is bent i may just total it because it wont be the same again but am worried if they fix it it will look just sweet like it should be

Judging from those pics, you need at minimum front and rear bumper covers, rear lower valence, p/s axle back exhaust. You may also need the rear foam bumper absorber. Are the quarter panels deformed any? Does the trunk open/close/latch freely or does it feel like it binds up.
