Default Civic repairs almost done

January 1st I was run off the road and into a light pole.

Unfortunately the guy who caused it took off and I don't have collision and had to pay out of pocket for the repairs. Probably for the better, they may have totalled it.






But the great news is the car is nearly completed. The new roof was reinstalled in 6hrs flat. I stopped by tonight and they were masking off for paint. Almost the enitre car is getting repainted. So I asked them to spray the rear bumper too because the clear coat is peeling on it. Otherwise the paint on the rest of the car is fine. The car is going to look like new on the outside. Once I finish the engine bay it will look like I restored it.

A car is totalled when the total cost of repairs exceeds the total value of the car.

I was fortunate that though the airbags deployed I received absolutely no frame damage.
