Pics of Accident and Repair (Stillen Lip)

This happened while visiting Houston about 3 weeks ago. I had pulled into the Starbucks drive thru at the Gallery and got at the end of the line. I looked down to change the station on my radio and see reverse lights out of the corner of my eye. I nail the horn but nope, she proceeds to run me over with her 2002 Ford Explorer causing the damage in the link below. She was covered so insurance payed for everything, even rental. I got the car back yesterday and took some pics of the final result with the Stillen Lip I already had on order. It's funny how these things work out, the lip arrived the day after the accident which was on the anniversary of my wreck with my White Maxima. No more driving on December 9th for me! I was able to get my hood, bumper, and grill replaced and newly repainted free and a new left headlight (going to go buy a new right headlight to match). So all in all it worked out well. Pics are below. Sorry about them being large, I'm lazy.

Yeah, I know, the guy who did my tint messed it up and then refused to fix it later on when I noticed it. I'm going to get it redone again by another guy who might be able to do it right. I have 20% on the fronts and 5% on the rest and they used some weird reflective stuff when I told them just to use black tint.

RedMax95: I may come up there in a couple of weeks or so, I've been wanting to check out whats going on up there on Saturday nights now.

gtr_rider: Go for it.
