    Default Accident

    I slammed into the red Chrysler @ 60 Km/h, Left fender, Bonnet, grill, headlights, bumper are severly damaged.
    Still checking to get the best quote for a decent repair.....meanwhile i am on my feet.

    By the way, i hope u never experience that guys, but if i ever would get into an accident again....i would like to be in the E34 for sure.... nothing feels safer.

    really? my frigge insurance company decided to fix my car after my sister drove it into a guard rail. i think the total repair bill was about 12k!. I didnt even think they would have done it. the only damage to the car was the front right fender, lights, and bumper.

    Default once you get into core supports and any frame damage

    the costs go quite high...cheaper to buy a whole new car.

    Default 1000 USD for a repair and a full paint job

    looking at your posts guys ..... it seems that repairs here are way cheaper than states and EU.
    All damaged parts were replaced by junkyard products....car expected to be on the road again next Sunday.
