My friends and I were going out to eat to celebrate my girlfriends birthday. We were traveling I-8 west and traffic was backed up on the exit of mission auto center drive,,,so naturally we took our place in line. two other cars ( an SUV and Pick up) also took their place behind me. A couple seconds pass and all suddenly the screeching of brakes and the unmistakable sound of collision, but it did not stop there. An old man ( probably in his 70's) had failed to see the traffic building in front of him and slammed into the SUV...the SUV ran into the Pick up, and the Pick up ran into me. I did not hit anyone in front of me. So in the end, no one was hurt, but my poor evo's *** took a beating. Ive only had her for 10 months and an old man thought that was too long. I wish he had only paid more attention.

 

 

Sorry to hear that man...

I have been rear-ended twice....


Bring it to a reputable body shop and she'll be as good as new. At least it wasn't your fault, let the insurance pay for it

I see a JDM rear and CF trunk in your future.....

 

That sucks.Good thing is, your ok.

 

...and jdm tails and new washer fluid reservoir

 

this happened to me over a month ago. some dumb little girl rear ended me. havent seen my car in over a month. but a jdm bumper voltex diffuser and a wide body kit are on their way
good luck with getting her back together

 

I got rear ended bad in my 98 Type R....got the car out of the body shop and the next day got rear ended in traffic.....I avoid rush hour like the plague now.

 

yeah i was actually thinking about going jdm bumper and tails during early November, but because of this i am having second thoughts. I had it towed to my house and its sitting in my garage as of now. I'm stuck driving an 07 nissan sentra :[

 

Dude that freakin sucks man! Can't trust anyone out there anymore

 

I spent all last night taking out the amp rack i built, and it was hell! In addition to the wiring i had to disconnect, the trunk itself had caved in,,, had to cut my amp rack to get it out with a saw. The trunk wont close anymore either.

 

its all good hommie you will get a nice fat check to cover it all and have it looking BETTER NOW then it did the first time if you manage money right maybe some engine parts

 

it looks like minimum youre getting a new taillight, trunk, rear bumper and crash bar....Is there any warpage to the rear body panel(the back of the spare tire well), or distortion in the quarter panels? if so, i would be very selective about which body shop i went to, those would be considered structural repairs. sorry man, if it was me i would be heartbroken too.

 

Ouch. I always say they need to get people that age off the road man...

 

oh God you just made me cry cause I have a GG IX SE too....hopefully it will all get fixed, post some pics when you get the JDM Rear, I wanna see it on your car which looks just like mine. Thanks and good luck.
