^^ i think ugly but not my cup of tea.

 

I really want a paint matched cargo box like that.

 

rape your gas mileage in the ***

get a box and get it painted. then you can put your nexy mod in there and not tell anyone

 

Already have roof bars, basket, and a bike rack that usually has a bike attached to it, my gas mileage doesn't stand a chance anyway lol.

HILARIOUS!!!

 

Thanks Yes they can.

 

So here is a picture. It was a 2013 focus hatchback that t'boned me.
Collision repair shop says hours are 23 + 15 for paint. I think he mentioned it was about $4500 in repairs.

NO frame damage he says, and all the parts he mentioned were cosmetic no suspension parts.
He did mention the A pillar needed to be replaced or the part leading up to the A pillar.
Plus, the two doors, rocker panel, fender, some hood realigning and overall blending work.

 

Yikes! I'm glad you're ok man. Was anyone sitting in the front seat when it happened? I'm surprised the side curtains didn't pop. That alone saved you a coupla grand.

 

No thankfully I was alone in the car.
Not completely sure what happened but the guy was maybe 90 years old? He was coming from a stop when he hit me and I remember hearing his motor really loud and I wasn't ever sure if that was because it was trying to get into my passenger seat or because he had his foot on the gas instead of the break. I wouldn't say it was a light hit, but you can hardly tell from the inside that the car took any damage. Close inspection will reveal a tiny inward indent of the plastic molded door pocket, and the gap on the glove box is gone shutting it closed.


So happy those airbags didn't go off. The $$ and bad stuff for the lungs I hear. Gotta hold your breath in an accident. Glass dust embedded in your lungs wont be fun.

 

$4500?! My god...is that shops floor made from gold? Where.i live.any number of shops can do it for like a $1000

 

Can you guys see that black plastic material extending into the front passenger wheel well? It makes it so I can't turn to the right without the wheel rubbing.

What do you think is behind that?

It's the only thing keeping me from driving the car. Is that something I can fix by myself in a weekend to make room for the wheel to fully turn?
