maybe2fast Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 I just got 0wn3d by a big F-250, I really don't feel like typing it out. The fact is it sucked, I'm sore and my car is fucked. No ticket and now I have to fix it Quote
sonyman87 Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 it wil buff out.. well.. several options. A) fix it with insurance assist. if totaled dont go threw insurance or buy it back from insurance. leave it as it is and drive it anyway. maybe a wheel alignment depends on how much damage C) it was the other guys fault and now your going to be driving a new BMW lol.

slick Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Any other damage besides what we can see in the 1 picture provided? To me, looks like a door or two. Quote
HokemBokem Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Any other damage besides what we can see in the 1 picture provided? To me, looks like a door or two. Yea you cant really see much. If the car is running nice and you like it alot then I say fix it. Quote
maybe2fast Posted November 1, 2004 Author Report Posted November 1, 2004 just one door and some body work, there is very minor damage on the front door Quote
midnight rider Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 i'd say hit up your local u pull it yard for a new door and do a little body work and she'll be fine. Take it easy for a while, you'll be sore as hell tomorrow, trust me, I've been there..... Quote
slick Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 Yeah, just take it easy. I've been there several times myself. Wait until your not sore anymore to start worrying about fixing it. Quote
GnatGoSplat Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 That sucks man. Although to me, it doesn't look like all door. It looks like that little visible part between wheel and door is messed up too. That would need cutting and welding to fix right. Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 find another white door from a salvage yard and call it good. Quote
maybe2fast Posted November 1, 2004 Author Report Posted November 1, 2004 I don't even want to go and look at it Quote
93CutlassSupreme Posted November 1, 2004 Report Posted November 1, 2004 i know i'll get flamed for this, but just remember how cheap w-bodies are if you decide to just say fuck it Quote
midnight rider Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i know i'll get flamed for this, but just remember how cheap w-bodies are if you decide to just say fuck it For once he has a point. Maybe now is the time to upgrade to a two door. I'd fix it if it were mine, but its an idea at the least. Quote
White93z34 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 on the plus side it looks like the center of the door looks like it took the worst of the damage, so i'd say fix it. on another note, is that rust under your side skirts? Quote
maybe2fast Posted November 2, 2004 Author Report Posted November 2, 2004 where is rust on the rockers but all those marks are tire rubbing Quote
jeremy Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 I say go find another white lumina in the yard and rape it for the two doors....as long as there is no frame damage..... sorry to hear about your bad luck.... Quote
Euro Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 yeah man sorry to hear, hope your bad luck string ends soon!!! it looks fixable, so i wouldnt worry about it till you feel good enough to start deciding. Quote
GP1138 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 Damn, man. The Z31 takes one for the team. I know I'd be irate if that happened to me. Sorry, dude. I say go find another white lumina in the yard and rape it for the two doors....as long as there is no frame damage..... sorry to hear about your bad luck.... I was expecting you to say something like "at least they didn't fuck up yer hood" Quote
maybe2fast Posted November 2, 2004 Author Report Posted November 2, 2004 want to sell your door? Quote
DiscoStudd Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i'd say hit up your local u pull it yard for a new door and do a little body work and she'll be fine. Pop on a new door, see how it lines up, paint it (if it isn't white already) and call it good ... Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i know i'll get flamed for this, but just remember how cheap w-bodies are if you decide to just say fuck it Sad, isn't it? "Should I replace my door or just buy a new Lumina?" Quote
HokemBokem Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i know i'll get flamed for this, but just remember how cheap w-bodies are if you decide to just say fuck it Sad, isn't it? "Should I replace my door or just buy a new Lumina?" You guys are always sayin how cheap the cars are well the only ones ive heard of that are less than 500 bucks running are the luminas. MY Regal was 3,500 bucks. Quote
GP1138 Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 the only ones ive heard of that are less than 500 bucks running are the luminas. *points to sig* But the weird thing is, this Lumina feels so much better built than my Grand Prix ever did. Controls are solid, and the steering is sooooo smooth. Seriously, and this car is just about the same mileage my Prix was. Maybe it's just me.. Quote
patgizz Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 upgrade, to, and 2-door do not go hand in hand. around here i can get any type of running w-body for under 500. theres a regal with a 3800 up the street for 300. if its rusty at all, say fuck it and let it get the road salt torture over winter and go car shopping in the spring if you have the cash.

93CutlassSupreme Posted November 2, 2004 Report Posted November 2, 2004 i know i'll get flamed for this, but just remember how cheap w-bodies are if you decide to just say fuck it Sad, isn't it? "Should I replace my door or just buy a new Lumina?" if i ever suffer any body damage that will cost more than $200, i won't fix it. same with mechanical problems. i'll just drive it until the car won't get me around anymore, and then sell it. if i was Don, i wouldn't even bother. these cars aren't worth enough to spend money on expensive work Quote
