Had the car for a long time now, since 06/07, and It's sad to see something like this happen to it.

Two other cars cut off the van in front of me, van stop suddenly, and I hit the back of the vans' bumper. Valley National Bank has some really good vans! He barely got away with ANY type of damage. *mutters*Bastard.

Front bumper came in, metal bar holding the radiator bent out of shape. Headlights are still working, horn is damaged. Engine still runs! But total damage by eye looks around $3,000.

So for now, I'm on hiatus with the build. Need to find a shop that will repair this for a good price, or claim this as a total loss, and just get a new car. (Looking at a 2010 LS460).

Lost a day of work due to this.


To the people who cut the van off: SCREW YOU!

Thanks Andy! You're always awesome!

To other people: Stop asking me if I'm going to part this out. Don't even know what I'm doing with the car yet. So stop asking! lol

Check out http://www.dttautobody.com/

I personally know the owner Jose. He's mad cool and does real good work.

His facebook page shows off a lot of cars he's worked on.

Owner of Pride Performance had his white GTR34 painted there.

I'm gonna get my body kit painted and installed there when the parts come in this month.
