My coupe got nailed by a Galant!

Damn I just got home after getting hit in an intersection. Not my fault but this sucks!!! I just hope it doesn't take too long to fix. Pics are kind of dark but not pretty.:sad0147::sad0147::sad0147:

Aw man, that's brutal, glad you're ok.

Someone tell me I'm wrong, but that doesn't look fixable to me.

I wish they would total it out and I could get a new one, but I doubt it. I've seen some cars in shops with damage much worse than mine. I just hate that my car won't have a clean record anymore. I'll find out more from the insurance company tomorrow once they look at it. Meanwhile that airbag scared the shit out of me.

Sorry to see that man. Glad to hear that both parties weren't injured. Time for the M-sport front bumper?

Good luck with the repairs. Ask your insurance to cut you a check for the repairs and you can get an M-Tech kit

Oh damn! At least you are okay. Hopefully, they can just order in all the body parts and re-attach!

very fixable...
better steel bending than bones is what my father always tells me...

it's only body work from the looks of it
ask for new body panels and it'll be good as new

How does it not look fixable? Unless any hard damage was done to the fram or steel area there then it is fine. It just looks really bad due to the panels being messed up. Seems like something that can be put back to normal.
