Maxima Hit, Maxima Hit...Pics Also

On Fri. 7/15/11 at a gas station pumping gas at about half tank, while A Nissan Xterra and Nissan Frontier side swipes each other going like 25-30mph and the Frontier ends up like 6ft right and hits my car knocking my car like 4ft, I was standing right by my gas tank seeing my car get hit like ****....nobody got hurt but the lady of the Frontier the one at fault fakes a back injury after she was trying to blame the other lady for like 10mins till the cops showed up....Mixed Emotions...Pics arent great but shows the **** thats messed up.

7/19/11 just in it is a TOTALED...Looking for same year.

remember to take it to a reputable shop, and don't let the insurance try to lowball you on the repairs. They will disassemble the front end at the shop so the adjuster can see the full extent of the damage, which should mean that everything needed will go in the estimate. the estimate in my accident doubled when they saw the full extent of the damage after the area was disassembled.

your body shop can try to get as many parts as possible from LKQ parts suppliers. The parts are OEM from cars that have been cut up to get the parts from. They can get a whole front clip for a lot cheaper than the dealer. Hell, sometimes it can be very close to the price for aftermarket body parts.
how much was the total price for repair though?
