Collision this morning!

Well, on my way this morning after getting a coffee....

I rear ended a lady on a right turn on a stop sign.. thought she moved already.. and went forward... and.. she hard stopped..

anyways.. she has a rav4... collision was about 10km/hr ?

enough to warp my hood, bumper, shattered my right head lights and right fender.

So... going to put in M bumper and hood instead, and aero side skirt...

thought i might as well..

Almost got some rear end myself yesterday afternoon. Woman in front of me, started to pull out, not cars comming, I rolled forward looking for traffic from left, and she stopped in the middle of the lane to dial her cell phone.

Passanger warned me thankgoodness. My Suburban would have squashed her ricer. (World might have been a better place with one less of them)

One less ricer or one less woman with a cell phone on the road? Or both!

Sorry to hear about your car but it sounds like you wanted the upgrades anyway so hopefully it is all for the better in the end

Think about the accident in a good way. Collision is always an excuse to mod!

Very good excuse

Both my 5er and my Z got dinged up and I failed to take advantage of this due to the time constraints.
