Do they hit the car two away and drove them into you and then you into the one ahead? Damn that is tough. Hopefully it is only minor like bumper covers and bits and no frame damage.

It looks like the crash bar is bent in the center of the bumper and where it connects at the inner fender/sub-frame. This was my first day of vacation on my birthday week getting ready to go look at wedding dressed with my fiancé.

damn I would be livid! Sorry that this happened. Drunk people just need not be in a car period! Go get drunk and get a F'n cab! Even celebs need to just get a limo and not get behind the wheel when they know they are going to drink. I have a BOM fit myself and I just cringe at the thought. Good luck with it. I really hope it's just minor damage on the crash bar and the front and back bumpers.

Body shop put it at just under $3,000 so not as bad as I was expecting. Does anyone know if the Mugen lip (front and rear) will work without the sport spoiler already installed? I assume they are used instead of the sport trim.

I did that 3 years ago for a good base to start auto cross, then I never got to any events. I do remember how much better the car felt on the on/off ramps around here though.

How do you keep your headlights looking so new?

Today, my daughter was home from college so I did an oil change on her 07 GD. This was my original Fit that I gave to her at around 74,000 miles when I got my 2010 GE . Her Fit now has 112K miles and is still running strong in spite of he best attempts at destroying it. When I had the car it was in pristine condition. Now it's a bit of a trash-mobile. At some point I'll post pictures and maybe we can hold an ugly Fit contest.
