Re:Soni on Q13 ..
Hey guys..thanks for caring...it means alot. But I really am ok. My car is just in bad shape:
Basically, it was my first time drivin in the snow...i didnt want to in the first place, but since it started snowing while i was at work, and kept snowing til I got home..I had no choice.
I was on Military Road, and turned onto 216th which is a slight hill. Even though I was going slowly and started braking in plenty of time, the car + ice wouldn't allow it. Another car (a honda) was stalled sideways in the road...I couldn't stop and rammed into him. I think I blacked out for a few seconds, and was REALLY shaken up. I got out of the car and so did the other driver...I asked him if he had insurance . He replied, "NO. Just get outta here." And before I knew what was going on, he left the scene. Unfortunately, this doesn't end here.
As I was outside of my car, being happy the damage was only a few scratches and my license plate bent -- ANOTHER Honda comes and slams into my car which was sideways from hitting the other fellow. As you can see from the picture, the damage is pretty outstanding. Now its just a matter of time to see if the cost of fixing it will be more than just totalling it.
I'm sad...it's my first accident...
Any good body shops you all can recommend?

Oh, that is the one big happy spot in my head....a new car. And yes, it is time...
I'm thinkin more along the lines of an EG tho.
Oh, and about the door...I'll post more pics...the gap is humungous and there is a possiblity there is frame damage. My dad gets the hook up with his father's company and gets parts wholesale...and the door, paint, and installation already totals 1,000 for just that.
