Rearended Today

[Cravin Boost]

So there I was just sitting at the red light
Car Stalled
Restarted the car just getting ready to let off the clutch
WHAM
now I have the imprint of somebody else's Lic plate in my rear bumper!


I will be looking for recommendations on a quality Body Shop to do the repairs.

Sorry to hear man, but how funny would it have been funny if they tried to pull a hit&run.

 

[Scruggs86.5T]

Oh my goodness..I didnt believe you on SupraForums..Now that I see the picture..Oh my gosh! How in the hell did the manage to just imprint their plate and not really dent your back end.. On a positive note, if they left the scene, you had their plate number..LOL

yup DON'T take a CSI to Figure out who did it got a call from the INS company and they are accepting liability for it so now just gotta find the place to do the work and do it right and not skimp or try and cut corners to get the work done. I know how lucky I am that none of the lenses (tail Turn and the Center)got broken. The hatch is not closing like it should. the right side of the spoiler attached to the hatch is about an INCH off(raised). The inside wall of the bumper area thank got for the Super construction of the Sub enclosure GOGO gadget Sewer Pipe!

Just dont go to LEIFS....I've heard good things about Kendall...You might even just consider taking it to a Toyota dealership body shop

Haha, I was amazed too when I got rear ended that there was no dent or anything in my bumper, they're very flexible and absorb the hit, but it seems like Cravin got hit a little harder than I did, judging by the fact his hatch isn't closing properly and his spoiler is off. Make sure you get a good shop to check that out!

well looks like they are going to have to replace a rear quarter panel. The guy said he would email me pics so will see. It did more damage that you could see from just looking at it. They are going to hire a local stereo company to uninstall the stereo equipment in the trunk area. FUN FUN FUN

Well finally after dropping my car off on the 29th of January I got it back last night March 3RD. they did a decent job on the back bumper altho now the rest of the car looks like ASS they could have at least polished the rest of the car. I am not sure I could recommend Kadels to anybody else tho. the work is OK but they tried to not do some of the work that needed to be done. I had to FORCE them to do the right thing.

Glad to hear you got your beast back Brian...now you can have an excuse for bad hair days again (feel the bassbass)

thanks Mark was good to finally get my car back they had it over a month for less than 40 hours work. And when I got my car back they had broken the remote for the alarm. The battery was conveniently dead and when I put the battery in it wasn't right. 115 + 35 to replace the remote since its a 2 way pager its not cheap. The trunk pop was also not fixed when I got the car back. (the solenoid is working but it apparently is not connected. If you use the key it opens fine). I will give them credit for doing the right thing when I took the broken remote they are going to repay me my cost and they are going to get the trunk pop fixed. but I really shouldn't have had to take it back it should have been done right the first time. and yea after a month of driving the POS rental 2007 Lancer super economy model the friggen thing didn't even have cruise control and well lets just say the Stereo was well how you say LACKING!
