They hit me! - Accident pics inside

It's not that bad, still drivable and happened two months ago. The story behind this is I was heading toward Clearwater to check out LHT's 647whp ITR with a buddy of mine from Orlando. He was following me in his ITR. So we get on the bridge. I'm in the left center (because its a four lane road), the Mazda 3 (car that hit me) was in the left lane. I was in the process of making a lane change (to go to the left) and the Mazda sped up to try and block me, but tagged my rear bumper (as you can see from the pics below).








Still dealing with the insurance company. The cop gave me the ticket stating I made an improper lane change, which is completely false. The other guy lied his ass off to the cop. My buddy behind me saw him downshift and speed up. Cop never got his statement at the scene. Anyways, I contested the ticket. It got dismissed because the driver and passenger of the other car didn't show and even the FHP officer didn't show.

In case anyone is wondering, got a estimate on the damage and it'll cost around $1200 and take four days ti fix it.

So this is the reason I haven't been on as much until recently. I should have the car painted soon. I'm currently arranging for the front lip to get painted because when I went to court I had to part in a parking garage and there was no way to avoid scrapage, but that'll get painted at the same time so she'll be back in her formal glory soon.

Damn... That sucks man. Glad to see she's gonna get painted soon. It's a good thing you weren't hurt.

Nah, no one is hurt. Well, the other guy is claiming injuries but with my ticket dismissed and the damage he's claiming my insurance is not going to pay anything for that garbage.

The guy behind me is the guy I bought my exhaust off of in Orlando. So I only met him 3 times. The 3rd that day. He told me if I was in a RWD car I would have been in the ocean because the car actually fishtailed on impact. His g/f even said it wasn't looking good. The weird thing is that I thought that we blew a tire when it happened.

Nah, didn't punch him. Never got in an accident. I had no clue what to do. But definitely didn't want a battery charge to go with that ticket. LOL

Good idea, but it'll take too much patience than I can handle, plus rather get it professionally done.

shit happens....usually its a sign for a change for the better of everything.
Yeah I'm thinking so as well. Nothing will cheer you up like buying new parts for your car. So that's what I'm gunna do. LOL


sorry to hear, but wasn't that bad.
Nah, not that bad. Just looks a lot worse. There's not even a dent in the bumper. LOL.

Yeah I can agree with that statement, even though I don't have a turbo. But if I went that route it'll be over 3k.
