Good luck the the repairs. I know how it feels. I almost cried when I got in an accident (similar to yours except she switched into MY lane) with my IS350.

Sorry to hear, seems pretty severe for just a lane change? How fast were you turning to get into the other lane?

Yeah, I was going at 25 MPH I have no idea how fast she was going. Nor did I mention anything to the police on that issue.

Alright, well damage has come out to 8,000 dollars and she will be back at home on either Tuesday or Wednesday. Claim adjustor gave no problems to my shop and good thing I know the shopkeeper cause he got me all new LEXUS parts. He went above and beyond to get as much as he could get replaced. If you are in NJ and need bodywork done let me know I will hook you guys up.

Hey guys I forgot I even had this thread on CL but I will give you an update. All the work was completed 2 months ago the total damage came out to 12,000 dollars. All the parts used to rebuild the car were genuine new lexus parts and the car was entirely repainted. I will post pictures in a few days after I clean her up a little...
