Minnesota chat 2009
Coming down the side road about a half mile from home doing 50 MPH and just killed Bambi. $2000+ damage to my Cobalt EASY. Radiator and condenser pushed in. Hood bent. Left headlamp shattered. Bumper smashed.
No job (laid off about a month ago). $1000 deductible. **** my life.

Parts the 'Balt needs:
-Hood
-Aftermarket Clear Hood Shield & Bumper shield that I had installed
-Left Headlight
-Front Bumper Cover
-Grille
-Radiator
-Condenser
-Fan Shroud Assembly
And if you look at the last picture, the damn thing dented my driver's door somehow as I clipped him and scratched my quarter panel too.
******* Bambi. Took my brothers RSX to where I hit it last night... looks like a murder scene. Maybe next time he will look before he crosses the road. Oh wait, it's dead.

I am going to be having a little get together at my house and would like to invite all of you guys out. I was thinking of june 27th or maybe july 11th. Just would like to get a feel for how many people would be interested and be able to show up. If your interested post the date that works for you.
July 11th. My best friend is getting married on the 27th and I'm the Best Man so I can't go then. My damn car better be fixed by the wedding or I'll be pissed... 
One thing I learned though... those Brembo's sure work nice!

gr3y - I have state farm and you have to pay your deductible when you get anything fixed unless you were not at fault, ie. someone rear ended you or failed to yield. That sucks man, I know its cheaper for that higher deduct. but thats why I have mine at 250, cuz I seem to get hit A LOT!. Deer took my back door out on my ms3 2 months after I bought it.. I hate those damn things.
Jeff - I got the movie sex drive so let me know when you want to hang out or get it. Oh yeah my car is a pos I mean isnt that why its still at the dealer :/
Dave sounds like a good idea, I think the 11th may work better.....

I worked at a bodyshop for almost 5 years. That's where I am brining her. If I have to end up paying my deductible, I now that they will help bury most of the cost cause I worked there. Also, the guys know how picky I am so I know it will be mint when I get her back. I was also the one that inspected most of the cars that were done so I know that they know I will be picky as hell. 
Another thing... State Farm better approve ALL OEM PARTS on my car. I realize that I have 8,000 miles on her already, but I don't care. If they try pulling their Aftermarket Radiator and/or Condenser BS I will flip out. No way is aftermarket anything going on a car that could be considered a performance car, ESPECIALLY a radiator or condenser.
If that is the case, oh well. I know my insurance lady really well (and holy **** is she SMOKIN HOT!) so I will be sure to talk to her about it. Even so, I will maybe only have to pay $500... IF THAT since I know they will help bury my deductible as much as possible.

I did the same thing. I called my hot insurance lady. told them what happened and they said to bring it to a body shop. I made sure they said OEM parts would be used, but its also up to the shop. so make sure they use them. MMMm which reminds me I have to call mine now to switch cars and pay more in insurance :/

Either way, I know OEM parts are going on there... I can (and will be if I have to) be a dick about it.
Hot insurance lady, eh? You don't happen to have your State Farm coverage run through the Elk River office, do ya?
well when my ms3 was going to get "fixed" some shops use aftermarket parts to be cheap and some like the one I had it at said they would use oem. But yeah I wouldnt let anything but oem touch my car either.
Mmm I think mine is out of brooklyn park now..
