pffff hahaha. meguiars baby!

you worked so hard to get it fixed up!!!!! i'm very sorry for you... i hope she's ok but it's difficult to roll a car like that. she must have either not been concentrating or going really fast. is she covering the damage? i think it's beyond repair once the roof pillars are collapsed.

poor thing... good luck.

This happened to me when I was in college. I let a friend borrow my car and they got in a wreck. Wasnt their fault, everyone was ok thank God, but, I learned a valuable lesson. I no longer let ANYONE borrow my car. If they need a ride, I am more than happy to drive them around myself. I would much rather deal with an inconvenience or even them thinking I am an ass then having to deal with someone wrecking my car. Too many emotions.

Sorry man. Hope you get another Tib! fing02.gif fing02.gif

NO!!!! Man, that tib was sweet for $500. Make sure you get the good stuff out of it before you send it to the yard. Build your others up.

just another reason i NEVER let anyone borrow my cars, or even drive them. especially without full coverage..

is she gonna give you BB value for the car, or just say, sorry, didn't mean to hit the mailbox's and flip it into a ditch?!?!

im looking for a new tiburon (HINT)who ever has one close to ohio. a part out will be in order. everything but what is nessasary for it to be movable will be for grabs. the passenger marker no longer has the lense.

ill miss it but its done for unless i had it cut in two and rebuilt with a parts car. i could do this but it would not be a car i could treat as i once had, knowing it was a complete total.
