a good body man can fix it. it would have to be painted, but it can be fixed. unless the missing peice is crushed chunks.

Is the guy who wrecked it gonna help financially?
That's why I don't let anyone other than family drive my cars.....and then only family members who are responsible people.
Sorry about your problem, I feel for ya.

Sorry to hear about this...Hope you get everything worked out. Friends ask me to drive my Z alot....I know eveyone dosen't want to drive it. They want too punch it and see how fast it goes..and that's the prob..if I could trust my friends not punching my car or tring to see how fast they can go..I'd let them. My friends are cool guys.....But that dosen't mean I should let them drive my Z.
