this morning i was at work when i heard a big bang!!!!!
i said wtf???.when i look outside the shop .I froze
my worst nightmare come true.
A hihglander crashed with my xb
it hit me in the back passenger side
and move my box a clean 3 feet to a fence!!!!!!!!!


here is the skid mark


now another nightmare dealing with the insurance company
i feel like some body [/url]

 

No effing way...get that guy

 

Sorry to hear that! That sucks!!!

 

who hits a parked car!?!?!

 

did you at least get the other guys info? or was it a hit & run?

 

I feel your pain man. Last summer I was parked in front of my house when the collections truck from the Rescue Mission ( a charity!!!) backed into my xB.

Needless to say I was also pretty upset.

 

Dude, that F'n sucks. I'm really sorry to hear that. Looks like the you'll be hitting up his insurance big time.

 

well at least your car was parked so your insurance technically wont go up since you weren't moving at the time. but its a big mess to deal with. GL with that man!

 

yes i got the guy that hit mi xb
and the estimed went up to $3000.00
plus hiden damage
maybe a custom paint should
be in order

 

Man that sucks . . . . I'd have totally flipped out on the guy for hitting my parked car.

But heck yeah, i'd take this opportunity to really get extravagant with the paint. Plus now you can actually have the front end and sides sprayed a little thicker on the bottom so rocks won't be such a worry anymore!

 

3000 is about right for the damage. I had a similar damage on my accord and it cost 3000 but i had a nice deductible..

 

that sucks!!! i'm feel'n your pain too

 

free paint job id take the hit to get the money

 

Ill take your rims

That sucks man, sorry to hear this... Good luck with it all.

 

Looks to be quite repairable, however. It could be a lot worse, like some of the obliterated ones we've seen in pics...

Getting good bodywork is always a hassle- the business is unbelievably cutthroat, being controlled by insurance co's and driven entirely by price... Check out the end product of any shop before you commit...

 

well today i left my box in the body shop
waiting for the insuranse guy to past and see
the hiden damage
then when i get the ok it would be the start
of a new body and paint

 

keep us posted and see if they let you take progress pics of it. we love "under construction" pics :-)

 

well everything went ok with the insurance
so the shop started to do his magic
i decide to stay stock,so im only
taking care of some minor chip on some place
and i will have it back like new.

 

And be sure to check out your Xb thoroughly at different angles when finished. It took two redo's before the paint actually matched on mine.

Good Luck!
