got the white trash mod done to my car!







today while i was on my happy *** way to go to a job interview...i got behind some asshat in a toyota pickup and i guess he decides backing up without looking....his DRIVER side bumper hit my PASSENGER side front end and he tells the cop he didn't see me...HOW THE **** CAN YOU NOT SEE A WIDE *** CAR LIKE MINE...the reason he was backing up was the street we were on was under construction and there was a barrier....so the car in front starts backing up and i guess he decided also...i wanted to punch the ****er when he was telling the cop i came out of no where...the cop looked at where the contacted areas were and asked him how he didn't see me...the car was in drive and got pushed back over a foot and now the rear hums a little...so i am guessing the rear (gears) of something is now trashed or on their way because of the hard jolt while being in gear...lucky me the aftermarket h4 headlights were not on yet but over all a 1300 hood is junk....total damage is over 3k...


so what i will try and do now is locate some 85-90 front end parts and try and convert the front to look like an iroc so i can dump the front license plate...this is not how i wanted to get this swap done but what the heck anyway....i guess one good thing is i'll have a front end without rock and bug chips out of the paint

You've gotta be extra careful in these low cars around high trucks. I've almost been backed into 3 times in parking lots.

nice cop. the video store i work at was hit by a guy parking his car, drove into the building. 3 feet into the building. had i been puting away any movies that started with the letter "A" i might have been hurt baddly. however since no one was injured the ASSHAT (i am licking that term by the way) of a cop decided that there was no criminal intent so there was nothing he could realy charge him with. (i thought of reckless driving or wreckless endagerment, yeah, BOTH of those would have been good chices) anyway, the guy was a dick, sounds like your responding oficer definatly kept his head on his shoulders instead of up his ***.

good luck fixing the car, if his insurance company is nice insist on a frame inspection, somtimes the slightest things can bend a car...

i found a nice iroc here in denver junkyard. I got a free pass to see it before anyone else looked at it. The engine was pure blackness burnt up. Now that I think of it, everything that you said you needed was messed up on the car. Sorry.
Get on the net and check out all the junk yards around your area. Than check them out in person. If still, after all the looking you dont see an iroc, than you can ask the junk yard to get one for you. ( I know thats bad, cuz it curses another iroc, but you gotta do what you gotta do). They will most likely give you a call if one comes in and you will have the first dibs on it. Thats how junk yards work around here. A 50 in the pocket and you are guaranteed to have most of the freaking car . THats how you do it. ****, for 200 in the pocket, he will let you have the whole car.


I never had a tow truck, but had few offers like that. Car would'ev run too.

I thought the hood pins were the white trash mod at first! j/k That's too bad, is there any good news? are you riding with gieco?

Seriously now, if you need some parts PM me. The bumper cover is messed up, I'd give ya the light brackets or whatever for shipping cost. I live about 5hrs away so shipping shouldn't even be that bad..
