That sucks. Glad you're ok.

serith · 06-28-2012, 11:21 AM

Glad you're okay. That hurts to see though.

b.e · 06-28-2012, 12:14 PM

Glad you had great response times. Curious to see all that front-end damage, yet the lights are all still intact.

Cudgel · 06-28-2012, 12:46 PM

That sucks but good to know no one was injured. At least the damages are only cosmetic. Time for 5Axis lip or TRD front?

Rabble · 06-28-2012, 02:05 PM

Just FYI, the hood is aluminum so it is going to be super expensive to replace. However it looks like the only damage is to the bumper, so they'll probably replace the bumper and the headlights, any bits behind the bumper that got damaged, and repaint to color match.

Shouldn't be more than $2000 after labor & tax.

Heading to Slammed Enuff's meet in Memphis when that was took in the caravan.

And ill be getting a quote sometime today.

Damn that sucks! Cool that you're alright and at least the damage isn't as bad as neutral's accident.

Now your FR-S looks like it's smiling with some chipped teeth!

Bristecom · 06-28-2012, 03:56 PM

Yeah, looks like you'll just need a new bumper and bumper beams. That's not bad as far as wrecks go. Fortunately, the radiator is further back in the FR-S compared to most cars and there aren't any oil coolers, intercoolers, or power steering lines up there to worry about.

eriktherod · 06-28-2012, 04:46 PM

I don't think there is any hood damage from the picture. The only part that looks questionable is the right (driver left) side corner but I think it's just the reflection and the bumper distortion. Looks pretty flush otherwise.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see the little crumple in the middle. I'd almost say that could be banged out? I'm not sure though.

Either that or the brake assist system kicked in. System detects a "panic stop" by a quick release of gas and increases master cylinder pressure. The car more or less forces it.
