^Damn, that sucks bro. Is the damage bad?

I pretty much need a need hood, bumper, and grill. One headlight is shattered..the other might be ok, I just cant see if any tabs are broke b/c I cant get the hood open. Also might need some fender work. And I'm not sure about the core support. Im gonna try and get the hood open tomorrow since I'm off work.

Damn bro. If you are going to sell the exhaust let me know. I found the new owner of my total EJ8 and he might be interested.

Oh really? Thats funny...is he local? How'd ya find him? I'll def let you know, but most likely I'll be keeping it.

Insurance investigator came out to the house today and wrote up and estimate and a check. We can't get the hood open so when I take it to Honda's Collision Center they'll do some work and then whatever damage is done under the hood, they will just bill the insurance company.

I'm looking around for an OEM hood, bumper, fenders, and headlights, that way i'll be able to save money off the check they gave me and pocket some cash. On the estimate they have down $184 for just a brand new driver side headlight. I know i can find used, good condition ones for cheap. So if anyone knows of some parts I can pick up from someone let me know (especially you Mark)...as long as they are in good condition and oem, the color doesn't matter.

 

[ImportFan1]

Yeah. He is about 20 minutes or so south of me in KY. I found him on here actually... Gonna try and meet up soon. I dont know of anyone selling anything right now. You may want to check CSR and see if there is anything FS on there.

Welp here are a few pics of my car after the accident. It's not too too bad...











So far I have gotten the following OEM parts for the repairs:

- Hood
- Fender
- Si lip (which I already had for awhile just haven't put it on)
- Headlights...thanks to Sam (enycesam) He should be shipping them out soon

The Si grill appears to be okay, but I can't get the hood open to be sure. Now I just need to find an OEM bumper before it goes to Honda for the body work.

 

[enycesam]

Damn dude, that's pretty bad, lol. Dude, I was going to have the headlights shipped out today and I went to the post office and it had up a sign that said it closes at 5 now for summer hours. I was flipping out, lol. So I will have ti shipped out tomorrow.

 

[NoWayBack91Si]

Oh ok lol...thats cool man. Thanks for letting me know

 

[NoWayBack91Si]

Here are just a few updates...

OEM Stanley Headlights (thanks Sam!) they are pretty minty


Password:JDM Yellow Fogs




I should have some more updates tomorrow, if a certain package arrives on time

 

[NoWayBack91Si]

More updates...

JDM Stanley Sidemarkers


Went ahead and purchased fenders from Password:JDM for my sidemarkers (Thanks Darryl)




I don't have pictures of the hood and bumper because they are already at the shop. But I found them locally...the hood for $50 and the bumper for $40, both OEM. I'm taking the car to the shop tomorrow morning. Hopefully I'll have it back in a week or so.

 

[enycesam]

Chinese newspaper FTW! LMAO.
Good to see some progress brah.
What's in the fragile box behind the fenders?

 

[NoWayBack91Si]

Thanks! And the fragile box is what the fenders came in.

 

[enycesam]

Any updates bro?

 

[NoWayBack91Si]

Alright guys, here are the updates! The car was done this past Thursday so I took it out for some pictures since they detailed the whole car for me before I picked it up. Didn't have time to post them until now so here they are...





















Just need to mount my BNIB OEM Si lip...might have time to do that tomorrow, hopefully.
