that's probably true. I may be wrong but if that's all the damage it did, then your car probably won't be totaled* from the Ins. Co.(but again i may be wrong)but it looks like just a fender($35)door($150) and rim(?) though to me ???

If I was in the Jeep, I'd hit you harder and make sure you dont survive, this way you wouldnt ruin another perfectly good CRX like that.

that's why you go through insurance.

new OEM front bumper - ~$200
new OEM fender - ~$200
new OEM door - ~$$$$$$

right there you have a 700-1k price list. and that most likely does not include labor and paint.

My prices are from aftermarket replacement parts, so I am making a guess from these figures
aftermarket bumper ~$100
" fender ~ $100
" door ~ geez do they even make those.

when you have an accident, you never quote prices of parts you get on the street like a 35 dollar fender, you quote the 200 dollar brand new fender so you milk the insurance company. ;)

Ya, I just got 3 quotes today and it was 2k, 1750, and 1400. For a fender and some door paint. wow

Re: Accidents can be good! (Pics)
 

exactly the figures I had in my head. I was figuring along the lines of 1.5k to 2.5k for the rip off shops, the ones that you wanna go to and get quotes from.

Lemme tell you a story, a buddy of mine has a hatch, the front tire blew out on him on the free way, dinged fender, ripped bumper, and some rocker damage, did an insurance claim, they labeled it a total lose. That was like a year ago, to this day the car still runs like a champ, just with a new paint job ;)

My guess is that the person that hit you is gonna try to buy you off for about 500 bucks. I would just take it to insurance, cause keep in mind the other party still has to repair their vehicle, which from the looks of the damage will get quoted 800+.

At least give your insurance company a heads up that a claim might be filed, cause I think you are suppose to file such a claim within a period of time. And there is the possibility that through insurance the other party will deny responsibility. I hope you have some witnesses.

And dont let the insurance companies jerk you around. My hatch was totaled and they wanted to give me $800 (was $1k but they took off $200 for having a black hood). After holding out on a settlement for about 35 days the final offer was $1650 and I keep the car (damaged frame tho :'( )... a little more than double there original offer.
