Great.

This happened today. I was both upset and crying on the inside.

Anyone know of a reputable body shop in NYC that can paint match the actual paint?

The 2015 WRB is much darker than previous years, so I don't want to see two different coats of paint on my car.

Any help is appreciated.

Story:

Three lane road. Lady and myself are on the middle lane with me behind her (which is both a Go Straight/Turn Right lane).

Person on the far right side is on the Right Turn Only lane.

Man decides at the very last second, to change his mind and go straight instead.

To avoid hitting the man, the lady slammed on her brakes. She slammed so hard and quick, that I did not have any time to react.

Therefore, this happened. Rear-ended her and of course my car took the most damage.

The guy who decided to change his mind sped away, while I was left in ruins.

EDIT:

Thanks guys. I put this post up not to ask for sympathy, just in case anyone was annoyed on why I put this post up. I put it up because I love my car so much.

The fact that my car, that I absolutely cherish and take care of every single minute, is now ruined, breaks me.

To some of your posts, @dannythetran, yeah I had just installed my new ARK exhaust too...

At the end of the day, i'm glad both drivers involved are OK, but as I was going to work today, I took the MTA instead of my car, and man, was it depressing. The sunny, nice weather didn't help either, and it made me sad.

I just want my car back! Do you think i'll get all the Series.Blue specific parts back? (OEM STI skirts, passenger side wheel maybe?, etc.)
