Oh yeah, OUCH!! is right... I think I just died a little inside after seeing that. Can't imagine how unpleasant that is for you pure. Good luck, hopefully it will turn out to be more cosmetic than anything.

Sorry to see this I hope its not totaled, I know your pain all too well . We don't need another bronze mist taken off the road due to another idiot.

Besides the Bronze/Razzi, are you ok?
I know it doesn't look like much but I think he got hit kinda hard.

You've got to be kidding me. I was just saying the other day looking at all your pictures of how darn good your car looks. Good thing it's a 1999, they may not total it if its under $2500 or so of damage. Also, if the car drives straight, that little bend might not be too bad. Whatever you do..make sure you fight and fight with the company about how much money is in the car that way you have the least chance of it being written off. Show them the excellent shape it's in. IF it is a loss, i call dibs on some of the razzi parts. Specifically, the front lower piece and the side skirts! Mine are torn up.

pure sorry about your car..now ive just got to ask.... whats with the old blue plates,i thought they got rid of them years ago... They're one set out of 40,000 that were stamped for Oregon's 150th birthday back in 2009. I had some ugly printed plates that just weren't doin it for me, and the standard plates were too ho-hum so I got a set. www.oregon.gov/ODOT/DMV/vehicle/pacific_wonderland.shtml

That must mean... she will live again or the replacement is in the shop getting done over too! Yeah yeah... ;D Crappy weather...but she's all fixed! The bumper was salvaged, (and very well done) and painted. The pillars were pdr'd and painted along with the quarters. The deck lid was straightened out, painted, and realligned. I also got a new rear air dam which that was painted and installed. In about 4 weeks I can wash and wax it all up! If you click on my MFA and scroll past all the blabbering, you can see what my quarter panels and deck lid used to look like.

What u gunna do about the razzi, because they don't make it anymore, right? I personally think their going to stop producing the other kit as well soon (what is it extreme dimensions or something?) because look a forum full of enthusiasts and i've maybe seen 2 entire auroras with a body kit EVER, and we are enthusiasts! But coming from being a 3rd gen prelude owner where not alot of parts/kits were made, we found ALOT of other cars body ground effects/bumpers fit with little fiberglassing to really no modification, and sideskirts are one of the easiest to fit on a car really just find a car with at least the same length wheelbase then cut the skirt if you need it to fit properly! NEVERMIND: just read page 2 , looks great man, very glad you salvaged the razzi bumper and the entire aurora of course!!
