    Yes, hes a moron.

    hit me on the rear passengar side rear quarter panel right on the wheel well. Auto body shop just estimated it at 2 grand. Since my car is already salvage title, the car will surely be totaled out. What are my options/ what is my best plan of attack?

    have him buy you another e30 and swap what ever parts you have after you punch him in the face.

        yes that is definitely an option,

        but

        less effort options are more preferable seeing that I just replaced the entire underside of this car....

            Loose butthole bro...my friend nearly ripped the driver side door off my Kia when I was in hs but it was a beater so I didn't really care. Had it been my e30, probly wouldve killed him. We're still friends :/

                    ^^^ you say fuck it.
                    op dont be a bitch, my friends backed into my car twice. find another or learn how to weld. seriously just find another so you can replace everything again and brag about how quickly you did it the second time

                    therefore, their value is much greater.

                      Curious about this as well, since insurance companies don't usually offer comp/collision on vehicles with a salvage title.


                      OP, like was said earlier. Rip off all the good parts, part out the rest, find another E30 have friend pay for/help pay for, put on good parts.

                      THEN, sucker punch that bitch right in the gut and tell him to quit being an asshat.

                        punch him in the dick and have him pay to fix or replace it.

                        Actually, since its a salvage title, post pics so we can accurately tell you where/how hard to punch him.

                          have him buy you flared arches, and deep dish wheels for the pain and suffering.

                            his friend hit it. his friend's insurance will pay for it. you have 2 options have them pay you what its worth aka very little. or have your friend pay out of pocket to get it fixed. being salvage you will need an expert appraisal to get its real value bc his insurance will give you almost nothing.

                              I had a heavily modified civic about 3 years ago. Insurance totaled it out 3 different times and cut me a check. I bought it back for around 500 bucks each time. Each instance was not my fault either.

Unfortunately, by the time it gets to you, all of that fancy stuff will likely have been picked clean by the greedy postal service employees. Please don't be surprised to see just a plain envelope.
