Are you brand new to the site? Not the first to crash nor the last, open a thread once in a while.

Experience with RWD? ABS, Ebrake... not smart moves in a traction situation.

Yes, believe it or not manufacturers have OEM replacement parts for their current models.

One time I seen a movie where a guy ordered parts over night from Japan to fix a supra. Try that.

You're late to the party...numerous people have wrecked theirs too. Parts seems to be a problem regardless of what you are fixing.

Oh yea, what kind of shithole in the wall insurance are you using that they say it will be two weeks before they even look at it? Unless the car was stolen or totaled, 2 weeks is twice as long as anyone should be waiting for the car to be completely fixed(assuming parts were available). A good insurance company will have an adjuster looking at your car within 24 hours of reporting it. Find a new company, yours sucks rhinoceros dongs.

Expect a month before you drive your car again. And take it to a dealership affiliated collision repair center, most other places don't even have a parts list in their system yet.

I killed bambi's mom last Tuesday...front end was mangled...both airbags deployed...seatbelts locked up tight...

Took it to Toyota on Thursday....I expect to hear from them today regarding how long it will be until repair is made.
