sooo i'm on my way to watch a movie tonight, and i drive to my house to grab some cash. Hop back in my car, go up the road about 30-35 mph (35mph speed limit) and start going around this one turn ... not noticing that my side of the road has some snow blown on it from a drift or something (it just looked like a greyish white salt covered raod) ... so i start the turn and everything goes as normal, then around halfway around the turn disaster strikes... the car continues straight... so i tap the brake, nothing... realize there is a car coming and just hold on and pray for the best.
Luckily she was slowing up already from coming up a hill and getting ready to go around the turn and was nearly stopped by the time we hit... so damage was minimal and injury was non-exisitant.
Either way - by the time we hit i was only going 5-10 mph, and didn't think damage was going to be all that bad. BUT, due to my car being lowered, i caught the corner of her bumper just in the correct spot to fuck some shit up.
On with the pics...
the bumper isn't shown, but has some scuffing damage, along with two gashes from i dunno what ... definately repairable with some filler and paint though. The lip is untouched, and the hood is undamaged.
...and here's the damage to her car....
----Luckily I have full coverage, so if all goes well i should only have to pay a $500 deductable. I'm just hoping my insurance company will cover the cost of a new headlight and fender, since both are not factory parts. My core support is also a little bent, but only on the corner - so i should be okay.
I'm going to take it to the body shop where i got my car painted originally anyway, and see if they can work soemthing out with me. I was getting ready to go down tomorrow to get a quote for a black roof and interior spray - so i'll see if they can possibly work that into the total cost, so my ins. company ends up paying for it to make it worthwhile.
I've come to the conclusion that this car is bad luck, though. There have been so many problems and mishaps that it's unreal. Every time something looks up, another problem happens....
Soon enough it'll all clear and i'll just be able to drive this damn thing haha..
oh.. and I guess, what goes around comes around, here's a compilation of quotes through the past few months ..

It'd be kinda nice if you died in the accident too, but something awful like broken bones, 3rd degree burns, extreme blood loss or anything having to do with any kind of reconstructive surgery would be sufficient I guess.

I hope it rolls down your driveway off the 'cliff' into your neighbors yard like your last one did.

Personally - I'd like to see that thing destroyed.

Much like you hope my storage shed goes up in flames.
