Accident
Well i just got my greddy front lip and nismo side skirts painted and also my rims powder coated and put on today. I went out for a drive and on the way back home the worlds largest raccoon ran out from behind a median and in front of my car. Busted my lip, bumper, tore out a wheel well, and some plastic part under my engine. I felt so sick looking at my car because I waited 2 weeks to get everything done and the first thing that happens is this. So question is what will insurance cover? I have Allstate and dont know if they'll cover my lip or how much they will quote me for my damage??? Can someone help me out with what to do???

Wow what an odd coincidence, I actually got into an accident to as well. A dog ran out in front of my car, I swerved to avoid it and ended up clipping a fire hydrant instead. In retrospect I'm thinking maybe I should have just hit the dog instead, as I would have much rather had to replace/upgrade the front bumper instead of having to pay my insurance company to replace my passenger side door panel/front fender where the it got dented I have full coverage so it'll be getting fixed shortly, but I'm not sure how this is going to affect my insurance...

Rule#1..NEVER swerve to avoid an animal ( exception: if animal will do more damage to your car than themselves!!)
Rule#2..Refer to Rule#1

I dont get it....
I`ve always gone out of my way to pay for the damages if I was at fault. In this case it would seem that you were

If I drove my car straight into a wall on purpose, then I could see your point, but it was truly an honest and unavoidable accident. I guess we're all entitled to our own opinions though.

Yeah i would file a claim for this. Shoot when i had my prevouse car, i had a little accendent with a air-hose and my headlight. All i had todo was pay the deductable witch was half the cost of the headlight. My premium didnt go up ether. Cant hurt anything to call and talk with a rep from your Ins company.
