Default i got it up the rear (no pun intended)

So im sitting at a red light yesterday when i happend to look in my rearview mirror and see a truck going way to fast to stop. So i brace my self and get rear ended by a full size chevy 1500 truck. So right there i put on my four ways and step out of my car with my starbucks still in my hand and the dude drives around me and stars speeding down the road. as he pulled around me i managed to chuck my coffee at his windsheild because i noticed he wasnt stopping.

So i chased this guy down the road for about 10 minutes and followed him to his house, where he proceeds to tell me he didnt even know he hit my car!!! so i laughed in his face and called the state police before i lost it and beat his a$$ in his own driveway. Before you know it he has a hit and run charge and im getting some money!!!

Today i was cut a $2100 check for a new bumper,exhaust,and bumper support behind the shell, and all the labor blah blah blah blahhh... Anyway, Stock exhaust are $650 from audi which was included in the check i got, so i figured haaaa, maybe something good came out of this...So tomorrow im using that $650 to order my aftermarket exhaust!!!!

ill have about $900 total to spend on it...any suggestions on what to get?

I'd save $50 of it for a few months, then invest in some glass bottles, fuel of your choice, rags, and matches.

Yeah... I know it's wrong. That's why you wait a few months.

And if the guy was a real ******* (Aside from not noticing that he caused $2000 worth of damage) Aim for this sticker:

haha I wasn't insineuating insurance fraud...I was just curious how a 3000 or so pound vehicle would fare being rear ended by a 4000 or so pound vehicle.

A friend of mine who (used to) drive a mercury grand marquis, a 3800lb car, got rear ended at a stoplight by a girl on her cellphone in a ford exploder. He was standing on the brakes yet it mashed his trunk up and slid him at least ten feet into the car in front of him hitting the car in front of him hard enough to rip off its bumper.

You misunderstand sir.
Don't burn the TT.
You aim for his window.

ohh i got ya. Well as long as i get my car fixed back to its original condition ill be happy. As for the guy that hit me. I have to go to his court hearing in a few months...

Ill get some pictures of the damage. Its really not all that bad, its just that it stress cracked almost every plasticpiece in the rear end so the cost adds up quick. Plus the exhaust what a nice chuck of the price.
