well this just goes to show that you don't even have to be driving your third gen for someone else to target it lol... anyways yeah this morning woke up thinking one of my kids fell out of bed so i checked and they were fine went outside and this is what i saw! it chipped my cowl hood so i'm gonna go with the ram air 2 bolt on hood and it slightly bent my fender and messed up my bumper cover and front ground effect.. so if anyone knows where i can get a ram air 2 hood fairly cheap please post. also was thinking about going with the Duraflex fenders.. and ram air 2 hood

----------
took it to one of the best body shops we have here in town and they gave me an estimate of $3,024.00 cause of the hood, paint, fender, halo headlights, inner brace for the headlights bumper cover, front chin spoiler their laber and such the usual i guess.. just hope the adjuster sees it that way to

 

If he parks cars that way, I'd hate to see him do a root canal.

I'd keep with the cowl hood, I think it's looks great. The RA2 hood just doesn't look good on thirdgens.

 

get a new headlight pod to, im sure yours will be cracked somewhere.
Might i asked how he ended up in your front yard, on top of your car, and halfway in your garage ? Damn dentist street racing punks

 

somehow he was sliding on the roads and hit the stop sign and nicked the back bumper of the neighbors van and managed to miss 3 trees here is a pic of me standing where he came from.. the first tree he missed is to my left outside of the camera view

 

Was there like ice or something that he slid on?

 

yeah there was a little on the roads is what he said.. then right after he told me who he was and that he had insurance lol

 

that sucks man thats the kind of stuff that happens to me all the time glad to hear your kids are okay and your car isnt that bad

 

Yea it looks like the car is the least of your worries, how bad is your garage damaged?

 

well not sure i'm haveing a contractor i know do an estimate on it tonight.. maybe i can do some upgrades to it while fixing it like i am the car

 

i would be freaking out if I seen that on my car! how did he go that far away from the road. he made a relatively strait shot. man i'd be pissed as hell.

 

i was a little pissed at first then he told me who he was.. the whole Dr. in front of his name calmed me down lol

 

You sure he wasnt drunk?He had to be going pretty fast to make it through that yard and hit your house while braking.Speaking of I dont see brake marks going through the yard.You should see some kind of brake marks in the yard.

 

slid on ice? how the F did he get that far off the road? whats the speed limit? He must have been driving like an azz hole and was flying to get that far.

 

yeh, dont get a ram air hood, I dont think they look good on thirdgens. And i think they look totally wrong on a camaro.

The cowl hood looks fine, just that small chip.

 

Drunk driver.....

That far up in the yard, with not tires marks on the sidewalk he cross or dug up yard from sliding? Something is fishy in his story.

Ram Air II hoods don't look gdod on anything (Camaros or Firebirds) without the 2 lower openings, that were on 4th gens. The Jongbloed hood rocks though!

 

man im sorry to see that it happened man. That car looked great and still does. Thankfully it isn't to bad. I also dont see how he slid off the road and hit ur garage and car that hard... Hope things are fixed here soon. -Matt

 

how much would you take for that hood. that hood is exactly what im looking for. or would you trade anything for it.

 

not at you at the dentist.......it like he was bringing a new bottle of laughing gas to his
office and it started leaking .......so he is getting really happy......see santa and some reindeer
in your neighbors yard and is like "ARRRHHHH that gangsta in red is tring to steal the jones big
screen tv .... ill teach him" so he swerves off in the yard wipes out santa, the 8 reindeer a row
of candy canes and the manger with mary joseph and baby Jesus in it then plows your garage and
your maro

dang what luck

 

wtf... gotta love a lincoln's handling.

 

not sure yet gonna see what the adjuster has to say and see if he agrees with the body shops estimate or not.. That way i'll know what i have to work with.. hoping i get enough for the upgrades i planned on doing since i'll be doing all the work myself
----------
lmao he did hit the neighbors reindeer and their concrete swan it ended up crammed into his oil pan guessing the swan jumped out to save the reindeer lol

 

dude thats ****ing hilarious.

i agree w/ the other people saying its not merely slipping on ice at the speed limit and he didn't try to stop

 

yeah was kinda thinking he just said f*** it from the stop sign on lol.. i did hear he has cancer also so he might have been on meds..

 

good luck man!!!! hope the joke made you feel a little better about your crapy day

 

Let us know what the adjuster says! I'm sure were all wondering about that.

But yeah....I still can't figure out how the hell that happened. He had to be going way too fast for conditions and/or drunk.

 

Damn the Dr. should have nailed a tree to stop the carnage! But no... He took out your car ... and your house!

 

the guy just stopped by in his jaguar to check up on things he was asking about how much it would cost to fix everything.. and asked how much my estimate on the car was..

 

Sounds like the guy is willing to fix everything,thats a big plus!
anyway,onto the ramair hood thing mentioned.
If you like the ramair hood as I do,then def. get one!
Heres a few pics I have stored.The first is mine and second one is the one that is on Stephens tahoe,the last one is charged350's

 

Let me guess your first thought after hearing that was "Good then you can afford this" . Sux that it happened but at least you have a story to tell.

 

yeah i'm digging that look!! i'm just curious about the duraflex ones cant seem to find any reviews on the hoods or those vented fenders that Extreme deminsions have.. curious about which place would have a better fitment like hawks versus some of the others also..

 

yeah man,I dig the r/aII hoods too!!!
even though they only have 2 openings instead of 4.
I don't have any exp. with duraflex,maybe you could
search or ask in the vendor dept.?
btw,I also dig those 2nd gen vents in the fenders
on your car! SWEET!! you're keeping them right?

 

i might keep them not sure i wanna try and see if anyone has had any experience with these http://www.duraflexbodykits.com/8292...s-p-23493.html

 

Wow!! Those look pretty slick!
I've never seen them before.

 

well the guy came and looked at the house yesturday and a guy came and looked at my car today.. I kinda have a bad feeling about it though cause i showed him the estimate from the body shop and he made the comment "well looks like they just put all new parts on there" i was like well yeah most of them was new before the wreck.. still thinking they are gonna try and screw me for some reason.. they are supposed to "get me fixed up" sometime this week!

 

Keep us posted and don't take any bull****.

 

Insurance adjuster are paid to screw you over, Its their job. Don't be stupid and get a lawyer. They have lawyers working against you right now to see how they can F you over ad not pay, you will not get a fair deal without one.

 

That is so right on!

This is right on also. when something bad happens replace it with better nicer parts

That really reminds me of South Parks Country Kitchen episode - http://www.southparkstudios.com/episodes/103856/




Well on a more serious note thats got to be a pretty a shitty day to go out there and see that. good luck on the car. it doesn't look to bad keep us posted

 

Well the DR idiot could have tackled a tree and not had this problem to begin with, so get all the new parts you can !!

 

well got good news i settled with the insurance company.. they are sending me a check for $2000 for the car since i'm fixing it myself and a check for $4500 for the garage.. since i'll be fixing it myself also.. work out though cause it only cost me about $800 to build the garage in the first place so i think after i get my hood and such rest is going on go fast parts..

 

good to hear that things went well. I also am thinkin about the duraflex RAM AIR 2 hood. Ull prolly get urs before me so let me know how it is man. I really like the hood i just cant afford hawks. I found one forsale locally but im waiting for the extra money for school so i can pick it up. Thanks alot. -Matt

 

Dude i can't beleive you let the insurance company off like that, its gonna cost more and 2k even if you do it yourself. and ditch the rice looking fenders.

 

A bit late to chime in but not seeing tire marks is not surprising. I used to work as a porter for a lincoln dealer, the ABS is very aggressive on town cars. Once while driving 30mph a garbage truck pulled out in front of me, I slammed on the brakes and hit the truck going 20mph, in any other car I would have had plenty of time to stop the car (almost an identicle situation happened when I was in a navigator, had no problem stopping). This was on a dry summer day, you couldn't pay me enough to drive a town car on an icy road.

 

any update yet white 25th?

 

I'm just diggin' the white trash lounger on the neighbors front porch.

Get new furniture in the living room and put the old stuff on the
porch.

I'm thankful for Home Owners Associations or I'd probably have
a lounger on my porch too.

sorry for not getting an update sooner, been really busy lately.. I fixed the garage, haven't messed with the car other than popping the dents out and finishing my spoiler and such.. And we had a really bad ice storm. I actually have another project going on to.. I picked up a sport bike that i'm currently building from the ground up for the drag strip. its an 02 yamaha R1 and building my boys go cart.

 

Glad to see you're back up and running.So what exactly happened with the dentist ?

 

Not sure Haven't heard from him. They did total out his car though and i think his cancer came back and he is being treated for it but not expected to do to well.. Kinda feel bad for the fella..
