I know how it feels, espcially if it was your fault :( I hope you are ok, and things work out bud.

hey it doesn't look THAT bad! You could always replace the door, and front fender... I know the rear quarter panel would still be messed up, but hey if you made your car fast it would just make it a really awesome SLEEPER!

you could even replace the rear panel but you probably can replace the whole car for more than replacing those parts with labour. that sucks.

Man, there is just no decent mx3s in calgary for sale right now. I looked at one with a shot engine (thinking i'll swap my engine and tranny in it) but its very rusty and I dont want to deal with rust at the moment. My car was booked for paint and i was going to order the BC2 kit for it, I finally have the money but now I have no car. I cant wait for this year to end, It's been a crappy one.

That really sucks about your car, I know how it feels.

Glad you're okay. MX-3 can be replaced.

Ill buy the car from you for 300, and ill get it fixed with 200 with me doing the labor.. CMON you people are lazy and negative.. HOW in the world is that a write up?? cmon.. look at my maxima when it was crashed .. before AND AFTER.. to fix new fender here is around 45 dllrs, door around hmm 75 - 100 and the rear pannel nothing but a good old dent puller and some bondo andcant fix. Paint locally ill get materials for around 25 dllrs or 30 and do it myself...I do not see any fram damage. Maybe i should start myself a body shop..

What you don't see is the damage on the other side which is not as bad but was done by the previous owner. I was going to fix that but fix BOTH sides and respray would be as much as a new mx-3. Maybe where you live its cheaper, not the case here. Also I would rather start fresh then straighten out that body, considering it is going to cost the same. I am considering buying an mx3 with a shot engine and putting mine in or just use it for other parts...Anyway don't h8



PS the car is not for sale, i gotta get to work somehow lol
