Aww. (sad2) best of everything to ya, looks mostly comsmetic i'm sure you will get her up and running again just fine.
 
noooo ! not my other prefered red prot 99-00 !! :(:(

what will you do with your front ?
 
Holy ****! That just hurt me alot bro! I'm sorry to hear/see this! Correct me if I'm wrong...FMIC and FMIC pipes look intact.....

now the obvious stuff......what else is damaged besides Radiator Support bar, bumper cover, grille, hood(fenders perhaps?)

Is radiator dented? If so, then your A/C condencer is shot as well I presume. Can't really make out on the pics, but are headlights untouched?

I'm just trying to see how much it will cost ya to fix it (I had pretty much exact damage when I hit a deer back on December 28th 2006....only I didn't have turbo installed)

My insurance company quoted me at 3,700 dollars in damage...thats: Radiator, Rad. support bar, A/C condencer, front bumper cover, hood, driver's side headlight, pass. side A/C fan.

Keep us updated bro, and don't overstress! s*** happens to everybody including myself.
 
Car is totalled. Insurance is giving me $5100 for the car but i am going to be parting it out and see how much more I can get. I'm not sure if i can take out the turbo yet??? and does anyone in south florida have an extra pair of stock wheels for the 99-00 Protege (14" alloys)??
 
damn, def one of the nicer 99-00 pro's on the board...sorry to see it go. I know insurance companies total cars pretty easily, but ive seen cars with worse damage get repaired, hard to believe thats a total
 
aw man, that s*** doesn't have to be totaled. man, thats sucks! i 'm sure a machine can straighten out whats bent. totaling is sooo unnessecery
 
Last Sunday the 10th was Worse

how fast were you going. it doesnt look totaled, but that does suck. u was kicking ass. shame on ur friends...im interested in those rims if u hadnt sold them yet.
 
yeah, it's not that much damage, but the thing is that these cars are not worth more than 4-5K, so pretty much any kind of accident will total them :(
 
with a car this nice and obviously taken alot of pride in. I dont see why you would want to part out with the ride just like that. I mean whats a couple more grand to get it back up and looking good. when you've already invested so much in.

good luck either way
