Rear Ended ugh!
I'm coming home from work. I reach my house so i stop to make a left so i can pull into my drive way. I always check my rear view to see if any idiots are speeding and low and behold i see some moron in a Ford 4x4 pick up coming at me fast. Not the newer pick-ups either. One of the old ones, the ones that are really iron-tough. So i see him, but i thought the dude was gonna stop in time ... suddenly i hear Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeccccchhh. I already had my car in 1st, so as soon as i heard him screech i *tried to take off. I almost took off, but i didn't have enough time. The guy hit me pretty hard i guess. I stood inside my car for like a full minute just thinking ........... sigh ..... did dis dude just fukin hit me from behind ..... SIGH. It didn't even feel like he hit me that hard, but when i got out of the car and looked at it's back ..... Wow. The back of it is completely fuked up. The whole back bumper is dented down. The middle (between bumper and trunk) is dented totally inwards, and my trunk is dented too ... oh AND my back windshield as well. Back lights, everything. The only thing that stood intact was my spoiler.
I'll see if i can get some pics tomorrow and i'll post them on here but wow ... it's pretty bad. I'm just glad i'm ok  My 3kgt's ass isn't though. I better get some good damn money out of this. It's painjob and 3kgt Upgrading time! ... 1-2 months without a car though ....... sigh ....

I assume you got a police report right? well it will all be resolved in like three weeks at most so I dont think youll be two months without the car. was the guy drunk? hey but it could of been worst, your air bags could of poped, got any idea how expensive it is to reinstall those suckers?

Yea i just covered her up
Hey guys i'm looking for Mitsubishi Parts out of the dealer for 3kgt's, but i can't find anything online right now. Doesn anybody have any idea as to how much the tail lights are? Back bumper? Trunk? stuff like that. And yea i totally filed a police report. After he crashed me i even took a pic of his plates with my cell phone just in case anything went on. The guy's car had about a 5'' dent on it and it wasn't even that noticable.

i totally feel you Nitro, but i'm gonna give you all the perspective of the douche in the 4x4. he's got this big truck and all, and when he hits some other guy in the butt, his truck only has a small dent, but the other guy's rear end is totally screwed up! that guy has gotta be kicking himself in the ass right about now...i know i was.
i posted a while back on a wreck i got in a year ago: no damage whatsoever to my car, but the guy i hit from behind, $1200 worth of damage to his bumper, muffler, et al. so ya, it sucks for both of you, but at least its clear who caused the wreck and whose fault it is. i hope you got his insurance info, as Igovert asked. good luck with all this man.

Here are some pics i just got from my cell phone. Not the best quality, but it's all i had at the scene of the accident.
  I have no idea how much money to expect from this, but of course i'm gonna get the highest estimate possible .... repair it .... then ..... i'm not sure .... i have to decide on what color i want to repaint it. Then .... like govert said, getting a vr4 out of this is a possibility, but i'm not thinking of that now. I gotta fix my babe. First thing's first though, insurance and all that stuff has to get resolved. I'm SO attached to this car tho and i've only had her for 2months! Seeing her like this *sniff *sniff ty all for the support, truly
