Hey all, I am very sad to say that i was in an accident today with my redline Z I was driving down a narrow one way street when someone decided it was ideal time to pull out of a parking spot when i was rite next to them. He hit me pretty good... door has to be painted, quarter panel has to be replaced and painted, sideskirt prob replaced and pianted and rear bumper painted..... the wheel got him so im not sure whats going on with that but doesnt seem to be off in either camber or toe.... what do you guys recon the cost of repair?? Will try to get picks up soon
you will get a faster, more accurate response in detail if you go to a body shop
Ya figured that, but all shops are closed for today and wont be open till monday because of the 4th of July..... so just wondering what im looking at... 10k seems a lil steep, you think itll really be that much? Its mostly plaint except quarter panel and maybe sideskirt
im not sure how much you'll have to pay for repairs but i can guarantee you that it will not be 10k lmao....sounds like a side swipe. i'd guess your looking at maybe 2k at the most. that is replacement of the parts and paint. but then again im not a mechanic
When all is said and done you are probly lookin around 5-6k. Anytime a quarter panel is involved labor is the killer. It needs to be welded on and your rear side glass needs removed and reinstalled.

This is the best response IMO. You are going to spend $1k on parts alone. Then throw in a lot of labor and a fair amount of painting and the cost is going to be up there.
When I got a little ding on my hood and front bumped cause some idiot girl ran into me when I was stopped, it cost her $6K. 10K isn't too steep for a Z but if I had to estimate, 6K-8K. When that happened to me I was just lost, then a month later Nissan rolled it out to me and she looked gorgeous again. Don't man, she will be fixed like new.
Unfortunately my insurance compnay has to pay because the guy who hit me fled the scene and no one got his plates because it was pouring rain.... So much injustice out there.... I will take and post picks as soon As I get home from work
Sorry to hear... I've been a victim of it and run twice now.. And once was on my old car only worth about 7k so I didn't have full coverage (it was killing me for being young ~1800/6mo.) so I had to pay the entire amount out of pocket. Ended up being $2400 be glad for your deductable

well it's still not going out of your pocket right? except deductable... would your rates go up after in case of hit and run?
