It is a very good idea to adjust your lights especially if you are lowered.

Ouch! I hope you can get that replaced quick. Do you still have the stock bumper cover to put back on in the meantime? Any pics pre-coyote?

You didn't know about that? You can read about most of it here

I posted it up on azg35 as well. It was almost 2 months ago. Anyway, I decided to go for a different look with wheels this time. Here is an almost current pic, I just got it tinted (not shown) yesterday:

The last pics I have of the G were taken at the dyno day. I was really open to just about any color and it just happened that the one I found was SS.

That bodykit looks nice but you need some wheels to set it off. I'm not a huge fan of the rear but it is a unique look. What do you have planned next? I have pretty much used up my mod fund so I think I am done for now.

I already talked with both sides, just simply can't get any further. My car still sitting at Van Collision, just like the past 2 months. Van Collision is trying to total it, which is what I prefer at this point, but the Insurance co. is being hesitate. $19k damage and my insurance still wouldn't total it
Alright, I am not gonna talk about my sad stuffs anymore, wish you best of luck getting yours fixed

Wow AZ has a lot of wildlife running loose late at night huh? The only thing we have to worry about here in LA is getting shot on the freeway. No biggie.

Damn, sorry to hear about that Cloudy. I've had the SAME thing happen to me on the 101 at night, but the IS300 in front of me clipped the coyote...whew.

1nate - what road is that in the bg of your photo? Looks fun. Best of luck getting your car repaired Cloudy.

Catalina highway up Mt. Lemmon. Elevation changes from 3,000 ft to 9,000 ft in under 30 miles. Its worth the drive down to Tucson just for this road, but make sure you don't do it in the middle of the day on a weekend because there will be a ton of traffic.

Mike: Wow thats alot of damage..and it meets the 60%+ of car value in damage repairs... Weird.. who is ur insurance? I went there today to get a quote for my car, got quoted $3400 to fix everything... I will end up going with Intense for the same price just for the convenience of them ordering my parts and being able to paint it there and stuff.

rommel350z: Sometimes there are alot of animals... just depends... was weird there was a coyote there cause wasnt too much dirt or wildlife area there. Maybe it was someones dog? Idk was too dark and fast to tell... i feel bad for it what ever it was... even though it phucked up my car...

JP_WRX: Yep... if all goes to plan.. i will be puttn on a DoLuck instead this time... and new wheels in a month or so .

nbdyfcnsqnc: No doubt... lol

Esurance was my insurance company, and I wouldn't recommand anyone buy their policy from them. Shady company that doesn't even have an office in Arizona
Yes, more than 60% of the car's value was caused from the damage, and they want the damage to be $25k to be a total loss, wtf (car only cost ~30k new)
Intense is a good place like we all know, and I am sure they will get your ride back on the road soon.
