Well, we were doing the swap in marks GS, and he was using mine. He successfully wrecked it.
Tore up the hood, headlights, bumper, all kinds of crap. Still runs well, no frame damage.
I'll post pics tomarrow.
it WILL be fixed, and NO im not parting it out. :)

Is that the one you are going to do all your work on?<p>It sucks that the car got damaged, but it doesn't look too bad. I mean, all the pieces are still there and can be fixed.

Some idiot decides to cut over a lane while my friend Brad (in an eclipse) and Mark (in my GS) are trying to get out of the turning lane. Brad ends up clipping this idiot and the guy slams on his brakes causing a 3 car collision. <p>Funny thing though...
He calls me on the way to the shop to tell me and I head that direction. My neighbors going with me on his bike and so he obviouslly beats me there. As ofnow there are 9 people on the scene. 2 people in brads car, 2 people in my GS, me in my RS, my neighbor on his bike and a police officer. MArk (who was in my GS) called my house looking for me and told my GF what happened. My neighbors wife and my GF show up next. I had called my sponsor and told him that wasnt going to be right to the shop because of what happened, and he said ok and asked where the wreck was. Next thing I know hes @ the scene too. Another police officer rolls up as well. Now there are like 13 people sitting on the side of the road because of this accident and only 6 people were involved. Luckily nothing was broken under the hood that would prevent it from driving so we used a coat hanger to hold the hood down and drove it to the shop. Unlucky for me my GS is temorarily out of commission, but luckily for Mark his KLZE swap was finished last night.
