I got creamed

Driving home, minding my own business, when a neighbour comes flying around the corner, into my lane!

Body shop estimate is $13,000 so far. Since I need new air intake/filter, what is the best after market one to use? Is there a specific brand that fits better with nitrous setups, since I may be adding that one day?

WOW! I am sick to see that.

The person who hit you was driving like that in a neighborhood? Around here we don't call people who drive like that neighbors, we call them deceased.

I hope all goes well with your repairs.

Sorry to hear the bad news. Having been hit 3 times in the first year of owning my previous vehicle... I know the feeling.

I hope all goes well with the fix-up.

Hey Buckaroo! Sorry to see that! It's always good to be optimistic and look forward. Good luck with the mods! Oh, I just intalled a K&N CAI and I love it! Sounds great when getting on the gas and is quiet when driving under normal conditions.
