Found the Problem.

Well no one has responded to the posts I put up about my accident. But here is an update.

My Engine Cradle is bent to ****. So that is a $200-300 part not counting labor. Plus the liner, wheel well, windshield (glass coverage thank god) and a new front quarter panel.

Oh yeah, he said the strut might be bent too, what fun!

someone just bend me over and **** me in the ass!

lol Im good on the taking it in the tailpipe thing.

Yeah you would think with my lights I would have seen it. But it was just over a small hilltop and there was no one in front of me so I wasnt looking dead ahead, just way down the road. Also the tire matched the pavements dark grey perfectly, but whatever. Lightboy is cripled and down, but not out.

I feel your pain

Damn that sucks when did you wreck it?

Have fun with that... if you have the means, pull the engine out yourself and replace the cradle yourself and save some money.

I hit a curb last winter (and avoiding going straight over it because there was a car on the other side). Needles to say, I bent my front sway bar + engine cradle. It cost me $900cdn to get it fixed... had it been the summer time, I would have paid $150 for the part and done it myself

unfortunately my free time does not warrant me to do this task myself.

He is callin me later on to let me know about costs.

I am also debating putting it in as a claim, I have a 500$ deductable. Depends on how much this will cost total.

Also the front passenger quarter panel (next to the hood) got cracked where it sits on its bolts right around where the emblem is. Is that considered one panel the wheel arch piece and the little plastic part below it. I circled them here, or would that be two?
