I was driving to get lunch and came to a yellow light and stopped. I didn't want to risk running it because of cameras that the city put up just recently. The guy behind me apparently thought I was going to go for it, so he didn't bother to brake and rammed into my car. His car has no damage cause he was driving a big ole van, but mine is all screwed up. Bumper, lights, rear side fender, and rear frame, and maybe rear suspension. I'm pretty sure its 100% his fault, but just in case, I'm going to detail the accident with my insurance agent. (wished I had my digital camera with me)
My car is a beautiful silver moss 1997 240SX in perfect condition before this accident... now it's all screwed up in the back. My question is what happens now after I talk to my insurance agent? Can I bring the car to a body shop of my choice?
PICTURES:
Picture 1 Right side of the bumper... not too much damage here except bumper is crooked.
Picture 2 Rear view of the car.. you can see the damage now.
Picture 3 Closeup of the damage. It looks UGLY.
Picture 4 Side view closeup of damage.
Picture 5 Rear side fender damage
Picture 6 Driver's side rear fender well... as you can see there is obviously some frame damage as it is no longer uniform.
