Hi!
just wanted to share what happened to my evo x this morning.
i was going to my doctors appoinment this morning for check up on my chicken pox. im going westbound 401 from meadowvale. no traffic when i go to the 401, then after morningside the traffic start to slowdown. before i reach neilson on the fastlane the traffic is so heavy that i really need to stop my car. when i stop my car suddenly i was hit from my back. i was hit by a rav 4 and this rav 4 was hit by a ford car. its like a chain reaction, both the rav 4 and ford was towed since my car still driveable the police told to drive. its a good thing i didnt hit the car in front of me cause i stepping on the brake. but right now i feel pain on my left shoulder and a little bit on my lower back. and my wife her neck, left shoulder and her back after the accident. we already have a check and doctor told us observed this weeekend.
i just came from the dealership and they estimated the cost to be $4700.00 just for what they saw outside of the car. im still waiting for the adjustor to call me.
just to let you know that when the accident happen mileage on the car is less than 300 km cause i just it get last week before i had the chicken pox so basically the car is just sitting on my garage for the whole week.
i never been in accident so any advice you can gave me, ill really appreciate it.

At least you are in 1 piece. Hope it drives the same. Get it estimated by a few estimators and make sure they use oem parts

 

That sux! Hey didn't you have a lancer before?

 

Get a U.S. Bumper!

 

I was gonna say ask them for the mitsu blacked out tails

 

yes, i traded it for the evo.

 

good idea. ill ask the dealership about it.
thanks

 

that sucks dude!

but yea,
+1 on the USDM rear bumper
+1 on the JDM Black Housing Tail Lights

also, if you’re getting everything replaced, see if you can keep the damaged parts, i might be interested in the ‘damaged’ rear diffuser. lol

 

im bringing it to mitsubishi dealership to make sure everything will be the same.
its not my insurace whos paying it. so ill them to make sure they will put oem parts.
thanks

 

i dont know with the US bumper. if you check the diffuser you could see metal/aluminum protruding out. thats why our rear diffuser stick out because of that metal/aluminum.

 

that sucks dude. Definitely stay on top of those neck and back pains. I was a passenger in an accident... had what I thought was a just slight twinge in my neck, and that bothered me for about 6 months till I had it properly looked at. Serious stuff... good luck with the repairs

 

that sux man . but at least there gettting it fixed for youl.

 

Damn, sux to hear that, good luck. Make sure that all parts are OEM. x2 with the USDM bumper.....

 

good thing you guys are ok. definitely get oem parts. ingat na lang!
