friend borrowed car, had accident...can't write off, what do you think?
Wasn't really his fault...but there was oil on the road and he jumped a kerb and hit a tree. There doesn't look to be any frame damage because the impact was all the way on the side of the car. The front rebar is banged up a bit, and I think the tie rod is broken, the hood will have to be replaced, the light, the fender, and the bumper....also that little fluid reservoir near the front side, and the alternator I think (which needed replacing anyway). I'm not reporting to insurance....so what do you guys think the cost would be?

Yeah, I'd say at least 5k. Hopefully there isn't any frame damage.
Good luck dude. |
Hood. Front bumper. Front fender. Headlight. Suspension is jacked up. Figure $6,000.
|
shouldn't HIS insurance cover it? If I drive a friend's car my insurance cover's his car while I'm driving it.
|
not in canada....
|
Damn sorry to hear.... That looks expensive... Stay positive.
|
His insurance should cover that.
|
No it doesn't you gave permission its your Insurance
|
Damn dude that's rough... Hopefully everything works out and you're still friends after this.. I have a black 06+ front bumper if you need one.

sent you a pm.
|
Hopefully you can get some used parts to keep costs down.
|
If your friend had his own car insurance AND has an option that covers damages when he drives another person's car, then his insurance should cover it.
If not, your own insurance will have to pay up and your insurance might go up. Good luck with the repairs. |
Oil on the road
