What happened to ****************? And why can't I link to
their site, (it IS non-existant, BTW)? What ever happened to
"friendly" competition? Anyway...
And...
The "daily beater"...
The "daily's" got new rims, which, IMO, look perfect; plus they're
four pounds lighter per rim and an inch-and-a-half wider. I'll
post some pics when I get them and ya'll can tell me what'ya
think.

tracks of my tears
:The first photo is of my "stock" Si after the truck decided to throw it in reverse while waiting for the traffic light and backed-up rapidly.
My insurance company is working with me to fix my car; but, we are walking the "total loss" line.
and here's the truck that backed into me.

Here is a pic of my friend's sol. This was taken at least a year ago. The paint job is realllllly shitt, looks like krylon and sand paper, but I still kinda like it. Its under going some changes right now ... the body kit is getting molded on, the whole front end is primer, and it looks like hardcore shit but it'll look good when he gets done. Sorry about the size

Parts have been ordered.
The insurance company for the company that owned the truck that hit me was going to declare my sol Si a total loss. Then they (Ohio Casuality) decided they were not responsible because the employee who was driving the truck wasn't authorized? My insurance company stepped in and the adjuster realized that the Samba Green was not going to be easy to replace. The adjuster has worked with the shop in an attempt not to declare it a total loss and it is going to be repaired. The used parts arrived (lights and radiator) and the new parts are on order (hood, fenders and bumper).
This is the car as it sits now after they assured themselves there weren't going to be any surprizes once the start the repairs.
