I was in an accident this afternoon with the RX8. I was making a left hand turn into a Walgreens and an old woman, in a Ford Focus, was making a left turn to leave the store. She hit me in the back door, tire and fender area of the car. It was a low speed collision but it still looks terrible. Car is drivable and the alignment seems to be nominal. All she got was a scratch on her bumper. I guess it’s back to the shop for my car. This time it’s not for a drive train issue. Why couldn’t it have been the front? Then I could start on a body kit.
She got a ticket. No I didn't go off at her. I didn't want to be nice ether. I just said as little as possible.

OMG allen!! First good news, then bad news! I had some great body work done on my last car at White Eagle Auto Body in Aurora/Naperville. Damn, you might also want to talk to DazyGirl ... she had a lot of bodywork done and did get some really nice kit stuff while doing it *hint hint*

Glad you are ok though!!! Jeebus, what is up with 2006 being just weird?!?!

1000 posts in 8 months isn't excessive. I mean I have been on this site for a mere two years and look at all of my posts.

How true that is.

I know there's anticipation, but I'm the ONLY one doing this and have no experience what-so-ever in doing any of it. Soooooooooo, knowing that this is a club with no income at all (at the moment) and with all the enthusiastic people out there...any HELP would be greatly appreciated.

Otherwise...patience is a virtue.

Not much for Chicago in general. I on the other hand, am loosing my job. Got my car back on Thursday, after it was in the shop for a week. And a old lady t-boned my car on Saturday. These are all written up in previous posts in the Chicago Lounge.

Can anyone beat that bad luck story for last week?
