Yeah.. 
The damage looks pretty bad to me. I guess you get to start over and go through all the fun of modding your car again. lol
I just took mine to the dealer. He said he will replace the plugs for free and see if that fixes the problem. If not, then we will try the coils. For the price, I am not complaining.
Ferret, I might take those coils off of your hands either way. Idk how many miles this coil pack has, but it couldn't hurt to have some extras.

only yellow 8 i've seen up here has the CSPEC fenders on it so not sure. i mean if your comin up here for school the SUV is smart for the winter weather but i dunno what to tell ya about what car to get. I mean i dont drive the 8 around here very often during the winter anyway so either would work

yeah the damage looks bad but it doesnt look awful like from what i saw it doesnt look totaled but i didnt see the frame and u said there was some underbody dmg and stuff so I dont know the full situation.
Btw Im pretty sure you can return your midpipe for a full refund if you havne topened it... just explain to them the situation

Heh thanks guys :D and thanks Ryan, the forums got a lot of helpful info been reading up on the maintenance a lot heh.
As far as mods I'm planning on debadging it today and getting the MS spoiler soon. After that I'll probably start with cold air intake and springs.
