New IS Lip + parking lot mini-r3v

[LJ851]

i would double check the damage. i recently got rearended (nohomo) at a creeping pace. we were at a stop. and he was texting and hit my car. at first i thought it was just the trim then i noticed my bumper also got tucked (shocks gave out) and the bumper carrier was broken. bumper shocks,carrier, and trim are like 700. u cant even tell i was hit. insurance quoted 1200 for the repair.

This wasn't even an impact. I think the fact that he hit the marker light first (very noisy hard plastic when breaking) saved the day. He was backed into a parking spot with my car to his right. Instead of pulling forward and then turning, he just started turning at first and rubbed his rocker panel on my bumper (no homo).He stopped immediately.

that's quick money. its nice to drive a beater so when stuff like this happen, you can make some quick cash.

Beater?! This car is pretty mint and is the nicest car i own. I guess my pics suck worse that i thought.

I really don't think that compares to a ding in the fender.

You are correct.

Pop out the dent, get Euro trim. Front and rear so it matches. With the other $400, take care of the neglected maintenance items. Then, park by the guy that hit you more often.

Funny you should say that, but i just did that last month. New: wheel bearings, all rubber in the suspension, springs, shocks, rear brakes, valve adj, timing belt, water pump, cam seal, coolant, brake fluid, and a few things i can't remember. I'm getting ready to do the engine in the other car to the left of the E30 in the pictures so i wanted the E30 to be 100% for DD duty.

Can i get euro trim from Blunt? I guess i will have to inquire, it's my first time i hope he's gentle.

Another stock one (3.2). Mine has a 160k+ with poor leakdown on a few cylinders. I found an 80k engine that is tight to put in. If everything goes as planned, i will sell my old one or rebuild it later. I have other vehicle projects i want to be working on so the engine swap (as opposed to rebuild) is just to save time.

Nice 80K is barely broke in.
G50 or 915?

915, it could use a rebuild too.
