So sorry to hear about this dude. At first I skipped over the thread thinking it wasn't one of the members here until I saw another one of your posts saying your car is gone....
Always admired your IS, definitely the nicest one I've seen locally
Best of luck with ICBC

Doesn't look that bad (assuming nothing in the rear). I had a similar accident a year ago to my drivers side (little more worse) and it cost $6000 in repairs. Posted via RS Mobile | |

It's hard to tell from the pics. The repairs are over 10k now but I told them to do a more detailed estimate. Posted via RS Mobile | |

The only thing I could take off is the stereo. I'll be selling that this week.
Got a call from ICBC today. They found the other party 100% at fault Posted via RS Mobile | |

So I guess I have two options left:
Buy out the car for $$ and be left with $$
Or
Take whatever ICBC estimates it at (good chance they'll undervalue so I'll have to argue with them on the amount)
Depending on how much I can buy the car back, I just might do it.
Use the money to buy something else, and slowly rebuild my old car into a mean machine. Posted via RS Mobile | |

Ya pretty fair. It was below my expectations but above my low ball fear. So they met right in the below while I still pulled stuff off the car.
Sucks I can't take off the new sways, rotors and brakes because I don't have the old stock ones. Posted via RS Mobile | |
