if anyone is interested, i gathered all of the information about it. it's fairly extensively damaged, cosmetically speaking, including: front bumper, front bumper cover, headlight, fog light (both driver's side, the headlight needs a complete housing not just the light), inner fender, outer fender, rocker panel (both sides), and the driver's side floor. when i got to that part, i said that car is pretty much useless to anyone but to part it out.

since i am unable physically, and pretty much unwilling anyway, to part the car out, i told her i'd pass. the only thing i wanted was the drivetrain and what was leftover wouldn't amount to much and there'd be way too much labor involved in stripping it down for me to complete it. if anyone is interested, i can give you her email. know that the car most likely has been deemed totaled by the insurance company, but that is one subject we never touched on. she wants $5900/bo. if someone does decide to part it out, i have dibs on the drivetrain. :mrgreen:

and now that I look closer at the picture, I think those hockey stripes are chopped on the car. it looks better without them anyway.

they are chopped, I saw it in the photo chop thread, as well as jims posts(about 8 of um with no reply) but techinically I wouldnt be stealing anyones scheme cause its just a chop...right? and if so then a bumble bee stripe would work too!

Anyway, back to the totalled T/A...

I cant use anything off it, but I'm sure someone here could.

arkansas is where the car is, hijackers.

i don't think a bumble bee stripe would work on a thirdgen with that hi-rise spoiler. it's either be in front of it, stop at the wing or go over the wing. yuck, in any case.
