    geez, what was the amount your car was insured for that to be a write off? Must've been a heavy impact if theres extensive damage under the panels...

    Glad no one was hurt

    Darn it being rear-ended. At least nothing happened to anyone in their cars. Sad though as another MPS ends up in the car hospital. =(

    Wow that must have been some serious wack to put your car into a repairable write off territory. Looks pretty straight from the photo but is there damage underneath it all? What was the car that hit you?

    well cars insured for $14000, impact was roughly 50 km an hour , need a new rear bumper, beaver panel, new tail light, boot, all the things for bumper(reflectors, plastic, exhaust tips) new bumper brackets, broke one of my air vents from when i slammed into it and the spare wheel well doesn't look to flash think that answers everyone's questions

    What did your thigh hit to get 2 stitches? Unless these is over $14000 they will probably fix it.

    Good to hear! Good luck with the repairs

    Might be a bit of a wait though, it took me about 2 months to get a new rear bumper and tail light after I reversed into a tree.

    Awesome thanks, send me a pm and I'll swing you some $ for postage

    Can't say I tried but pretty sure that they don't. I'm sure it would be 50 bucks if they did lol
