Default ACK!!!!!! Accident

well i was on my way to work and i stopped behind a van at a light, then i hear the scream of wheels so i look into my rear view mirror to see a lancer slam right into my car pushing me into the van.....Luckily for me our mustangs are built like Tanks and my rear bumper only has a few scratches and its poped off teh frame on the left side.....her car was smashed to hell though and her engine wouldnt crank.... time for the GT front n rear facias to go on.....BTW the cop was FHP for any of you floridians and he was in a nice camaro ss and gave the lancer driver a reckless driving ticket ......she was drivign while on the cell phone too, all the more reason to hate people who talk on phones in cars -_-

Man that sounds like my story a few months ago. Some guy in an SUV slid into my rear while on the parkway. I collected the $ from his company and my shop gave me the $ towards the bumpers. Went to Diversified Marketing and got painted GT takeoff Front bumper with grill and fogs, Rear bumper, and side skirts for the same price allowance the company gave me for a rear bumper plus paint So made lemonade from my lemons ... now it's your turn... Take it as an opportunity.

Luckily you didn't get injured - that's what matters most!

OMG dude that sucks....Any signs of whiplash???? I think it takes a few days sometimes. Glad she got a ticket though and yes, it gives you a nice excuse to get the Gt stuff.

On a further note...I was driving home and saw this nice looking Windveil blue stang v6. It had Gt-takeoff rims so I was like "cool, it's modded" it was parked on grass though. So as I drove passed it I checked to see if it had a modded exhaust. It didn't but it's entire left side was crashed in. ANd there it sat. Abandoned no one around it. That REALLLY sucks.

I really wish people would get off the phone issue, if they aren't going to let us talk on the phone in the car, then shut down all the drive thru's, I have personally seen two accidents due to someone eating.
