After 5k of damage... here it is. Opinions everyone?
I was rear ended a month back... the lady caused 5k in damage (it doesnt take much with these cars be careful) so I decided to put a kit on it since the ins would cover 33% of the painting and labor due to the accident.
Damaged parts 5k
Skirt
Rear Quarter Panel
Tail lights
Trunk Hatch
Rear Glass
Plastic liner in trunk
Rear Corners
Nismo Wing
Here is what I have so far on it... under 3k of addtional add ons which includes paint and labor.
Still Front Lip Chin Spoiler
GReddy Side Skirts
Esprit Rear
PPW Center Console
75% repainted too many chips...
LED Accenting
Paint Matched CF Nismo wing (not on yet)
JDM Clear corners/JDM Clear tails (not on yet)
Meshing the Stillen Lip to match sides (not on yet)
Front Mesh Grill (not on yet)

no offense to you Villainous350z, but i think you got jip'd.. what you have done does not seem like it would add up to 5k.. i think because you basically had a shopping spree of 5k to work with you really didnt shop around did ya? w/ 5k in upgs, i personally wouldve expected a bigger change. Looks good though, clean.

I paid under 2500 for the kit labor, paint and the rest of the work which included painting of the front... damn weak azz paint.
I was hit about a month ago... the lady that hit me was in a trail blazer... 5k of damage done.

Sorry to hear about your accident I am sure you will get it up and running soon... I know it sucks. Mine was in the shop for 3 weeks... but what can you do.
Hit me up soon... I work in the Bethesda area during the day.

also keep in mind they might have had to fix other parts (taillights, frame, hatch, etc).
5k is pretty cheap for a collision in general.
