Damn...

Got cut on the highway in a construction zone, was in the left lane, guy in front changed lane w/o looking and put the brake pedal to the floor. He had a ------ Buick Rendezvous so already low integra + nosedive on braking + assrise of Rendezvous = dead hood, fenders, rad, headlight. Rendezvous damage = scratched bumper and bent tailpipe. Luckily, turbo setup untouched.

Don't know if I'll rebuild or part out, I know nothing about body work, do you think it is repairable for < 500$. All the front metal sheet holding healights and radiator is thorn. I have a welder, I don't give a damn about bling so roller paint is acceptable...

Damn, I finished the build about 2 months ago, and didn't even get the chance to blow up the engine. I couldn't find any used rad so I bought a brand new one full price, and destroy it 2 months later.

Officially, I dont know yet, I'll get my hand on the incident report by the police, insurance-wise, probably it'll be me since I hit him. The real ------- however is the one that cut the guy in front of me, forcing him to cut me, and went away. >:(

I need to find a donor vehicle.

Dude Hondas are ------- fragile. My stock height Civic front end was demolished last spring when I rear ended my gf's Saturn. I had to do rad support, hood, fenders, the whole thing. All I did you her ass end was leave a white scuff, which we wiped off. ------- pathetic how much a nosedive and shitty front end construction will ---- your car up.
