ya it sucks

severe sub frame damage. theres a hole on the floor so you can put your hand through it

the structural integrity has been compromised and insurance felt that it wasnt safe to even repair it

insurance paid off my lien with honda for $22k USD and they cut me a check for $6k USD to get another car

i originally got it for $29k USD plus tax/licenses

the market value of the car was $26k plus $2k in taxes = $28k minus $22k payoff = $6k check

[denot]

Did you at least get a new car? or is the payout enough to buy another?

And the inside:

nice
i think the whole roof is a bit too much tho, would look better lowered

i really like the rear exhaust area wrap, howd u get that done? did u have to take off the whole bumper? im thinking of doing it to the mugen rear lip i bought, after i paint it of course

was this DIY or what? how much did it cost? (just for interior)

fark looking at that console makes me wanna do it too. i hvae 3 meters of CF vynle wrap i bought but i dunno how to rip out the console to wrap it. im not feeling the fake woodgrain anymore. would prefer fake CF lol

and why is the area near ur hazard button dented?










Btw, so fkn sorry to hear about ur car defcon...all that bloody work. can u salvage the bonnet at least? what do they do with the car once they write it off? cant u salvage it for parts? like side mirrors and bonnet.
and why arent u salvage the teins? such a waste?

I like the Enkeis.Are they 18s?

[buddah51au]

Yes Tony, 18's they are. it is too impractical to go larger when u do a lot of driving on the Bruce Goat Track. Lost a 17 to a pothole a couple of weeks ago.

[furythree]

whao they both look nice buddah
the bBS kinda look like defcons
how much?

btw my mechanic refferred me to a panel beater
quoted me $700 for install and paint

he said i shud haggle it even cheaper. but dont wanna piss off the dude with haggling if u noe what i mean

so just checking whetehr $600 or $700 is normal for paint + install?

[buddah51au]

BBS are $750 each, Enkie SC22 are $320.00 each. both 18x8 +45 Offset. I am yet to decide what tyres to use'

What Damage do you have furythree?

[furythree]

whao huge price difference. enkei for sure then

no damage, just installing my mugen replica lip kit. but dunno how much i shud be paying (paint + install of 2 skirst and 2 lips)

[QUOTE=greg6510;2968015]Some Carbon Fibre wrapping on my CU2.

much prefer the Enkei Budda .. but will they be wider than the standard 18"?
the BBS to me looks a bit blend.

[buddah51au]

Lemonhead, they are the same size as the OEM 18's - 18x8. The only difference is the offset, OEM is +55, Enkie's & BBS are +45. The crazy thing is that it will cost $610 to replace my damaged OEM 17, yet the Enkie"s are $320 each.
