urs1ne Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 I havent even made it to 1k miles on my new LGT and some stupid **** head just ****ed up my rear bumper and tail light!!!!!!! I was sitting at a red light and the retard behind me in his nissan frontier pickup tries to get out of the straight lane and go across the turn lane to the gas station on the corner of the intersection and in the process the front drivers side corner of his truck drives into the passenger side rear of my car! Thank deus he only hit the bumper and tail light and not any of the metal but WTF, I dont even have plates on my car yet!!!!!! I am so pissed!!! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v87/ursine/DSCN2067Medium.jpg ^ n00bs below this line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmeat Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Such a shame! On an '07 no less! Argh!!! Are they going to pay for pain and suffering too? I'm pleasantly surprised... It was most certainly worth the couple bucks and 10 mins of my time. CLICK HERE FOR THE HOGZAUST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Euclid Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 luckily it's just cosmetic damage, and a new bumper and light should fix it (and whatever parts under the bumper that need fixing). I got hit in the same spot in an even lamer accident. My car was parked in my in-laws driveway and a guy delivering flowers pulled into the driveway and drove into my car. http://celicaman.f0e.net/albums/lgtsmash/DSCN4478sm.sized.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to have a ballpark when I go in to Amato's on monday. ^ n00bs below this line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euclid Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 How much was your estimate? I want to have a ballpark when I go in to Amato's on monday. All said and done mine was ~$1700. That replaced the bumper skin, and all the components behind it. You have a taillight that needs replacing which should add a couple hundred more dollars to it. I took mine to one of the best independent body shops in the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gire Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Brutal. I had my last Acura for 30 days before someone rear-ended me ($1900.00 damage) but Jeez! You haven't even had time to de-badge it yet, its so new! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD_Rules3830 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Another Legacy accident ... I love my car ... basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmeat Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Why does everyone debadge? Not like anyone knows WTF a Legacy is anyways. I think it looks "odd" without anything on the back. I can see dealer stickers and crap like that, but leave stock lettering on... I'm pleasantly surprised... It was most certainly worth the couple bucks and 10 mins of my time.

Atroz Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 +3 I haven't been able to figure out the phenomenon either. No dealer badges on my car, but I see nothing wrong leaving the car in the way Subaru intended. Give credit where credit's due. Besides, when you're trying to spot other LGT owners it's about the only way of telling a LGT from another legacy from the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leggtnut Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 Sounds like usual stupid california drivers. I swear, they are the worst. I have driven in a few differant areas and CA takes the cake on the wost drivers I have ever seen. I have lived down here for 4 years now and I have been rear ended and almost been plowed into by mornic self absorbed idiots more times than I can count. I have had to many close calls down here. Though I have to say the Subie crowd down here are, in general, better drivers than most.

Vimy101 Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 De-badging is a total ricer thing. Unfortunately, most people look at a fully badged LGT and still don't know what the hell it is. De-badging it is rather redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gire Posted January 14, 2007 Share Posted January 14, 2007 and around and around we go... The car looks too cluttered with all the crap that Subaru puts on the back. Throw in a gaudy dealer plate and you have a rear end that's busier than Times Square. We de-badge the clutter because we're ashamed of our cars / we're ricers?
