Default Guy ran a red... (56k no)

And took out my tC. I was taking a left turn (had a green arrow) and a wrangler not paying attention hit me pretty much head on at 40. The tC took the hit extremely well I had no injuries and the airbags deployed. What scared me the most was when i managed to get out of the passenger side, i saw that his car had flipped and was upside down off the road. I sprinted over to the car and started yelling asking if he could hear me and luckily he was crawling out of the passenger window. Everyone was okay we're both very lucky. Only have a ____ty cell phone picture and I wasn't able to get one of his car because I didn't take any pictures on site.






....And this is what I bought with the insurance money

Only thing I have are the Clazzio seat covers. They are the all leather ones, black outside and grey on the inside with grey stitching. Only had them on the car for 2 months and are in perfect condition. I'll throw them up on the FS section tonight.

This wreck was about 2 weeks ago, I got my check within 7 days. Great insurance, very easy to work with. If you're interested just drop me a pm.

Glad to know you're safe. Looks like the tC took the damage from a Wrangler very well. The IS300 is amazing man.

Oh, and if you don't mind, what insurance company do you have? =]

The only mods on the IS are HID's, 26% tint all the way around and it's dropped and tucked slightly.

As for the seat covers here is the thread with a picture:

I bought them for $425 new so throw out a figure.
