Nope, it's most likely going to be totaled.

Most likely?

There's easily 3x the car's worth in damage there.

Cars have been totalled out for far less.

I'm sorry buddy but not only are you looking at serious frame damage and very serious rear suspension damage, but even if it wasn't just a matter of value, the damage itself may not be fixable in the end.

What happened exactly?

Any time the rear quarter has serious damage it's considered totaled, it's not a panel that is easily replaced.

im not sure about that..you can get a good car for about 2-3k. those damages look about 5k..but im also no mechanic so i could be wrong

Shimee

Try 7-8k for just a new skin and some hammering to straighten the frame, closer to 10-12k if you'd want it done properly with a new clip and everything.

Sorry I haven't got back to some of your questions, I've just been really down lately after the whole incident..so i got a couple more days until i find out from my insurance what they want to do, so I'll update you guys on that. And yes i was in the car, i was just being stupid and thought i could make a quick turn and didn't end up seeing the other car coming and you guys can see what happened from the picture...i think this might be it for me, maybe time for a sedan or something ahaha

pIERCE

It's a damn shame, looks like it was a very clean unmolested Lude. How long had you owned it?

Aerry408

about a month, i just bought it after i sold my auto lude, I guess I'm not meant to have a lude ahaha

pIERCE

Damn man, that's harsh. Such a nice car. I must admit I'm a pic whore, have any other pictures of it?

Good luck in the future.

Aerry408

I was just going to post them now ahaha

Aerry408

Thats what happened to the suv that hit me lol




My car before everything happened.

pIERCE

Wow man, looks like you what car to get if you want to feel invincible. An Explorer....

Wow man, clean car!

Aerry408

ahahaha it was a clean car
