nah no need. If he would've issued me a ticket i would've whipped his *** up and down rockville pike then blown him up to a million pieces.

Kyle i have those same wheels but in gold..maybe gonna sell them with tires and you can just get them painted..

Or look at the vars version 2.2.23 or somethin like that.

Guess what my brilliant roommates did last night? They moved all the trash from the entrance to their door to the front of the drive way... We'll see if the trash people will actually take it. LOL

And of course.. we got a nice little ticket!

How much is the ticket and hows does that work? Ticket at home?

You know you're Asian when you get tickets while not even driving.

Got some bad news guys last Tuesday approximately at 11:33pm some ******* in a 1995 Honda accord lx with all these pep boy ricer emblems and big *** 747 jet plane wing slammed right into the back of my z and I did a complete 180 on that bridge next to ICC on Randolph road... she hit me going 50 on a damn ice covered road

Here's whats trashed:
Stillen Exhaust "which is getting replaced with a custom greddy ti-c exhaust with straight pipes"
Rear Bumper
Rear taillights and reverse lights
left fr and rear wheel is bent
front bumper
radiator + support
left side skirts
intake air duct
rear alignment
Mines Carbon Lip "Cracked in Half"

Which totals up from what my insurance adjuster said to fix is $5,466.35...............So shes F***ed

that suuuuuuucks...

you get her insurance stuffs? hopefully you're not paying out of pocket for that... i'm about to spend $2,400 out of pocket for body work - both rear quarters on my car are smashed - the kid who had it before me claimed it, took the cash, and never got it fixed...


on another note - with that money you get, go to Freed Engineering and get an exhaust fabricated instead of the Greddy... i've gone through so many exhaust setups over the years on different builds and this is by far my favorite setup (3.5in single piping with a Burns muffle on my Z33)... might be worth a look... just a thought

edit: some photos of the fab are here: https://my350z.com/forum/members/141...brication.html

check out Ben's Y-Pipe compared to Greddy's:

I think I might do that but they said they would just replace it with an exhaust system of my choice and yeah the officer on the scene got all here information and her insurance company has to pay for it all. But my Insurance company said I need to pay a $500 deductible for some reason.

^ ask your insurance company, "so you want me to pay $500 because someone ELSE rammed into me? Please explain why and how this makes any sense to you. Oh yes... and does 'common logic' a requirement to be working behind that desk of yours?"

ugh - welcome to my nightmare.. hahaha...

i got my car from the last owner and replaced EVERYTHING... motor (2 bad cylinders), trans (3rd gear synchro shot), suspension (well - it just had stock and a friend was selling the tanabe's with teas system), needed to replace the rims (so bent, i have no idea how they were still holding air)... and now i'm moving on to FINALLY fix the body damages (it's so embarrassing)..

only reason i got this 350z was because the kid wanted a 180sx so bad and mine was DONE (unless you ripped open the motor for internal work) and he asked if mine was for sale... I told him i'd give him my 180sx for his 350z AND $4,000 (keep in mind that 2 of my good friends owned shops - so parts/labor was no issue)...
