Well just got into my first accident in this car. Nice big crack and whole bunch of little holes in my 98-00 Euro Front bumper. 1 ST170 headlight has a big crack running right threw it.
I call the insurance ppl tommorow hopefully the bumper can be repaired as well as the headlight. If not i might be looking for a new front bumper.
PS:
the other driver is alright as is my gf in my car. Can be happy for that atleast.

Here's hoping that the insurance company doesn't give you a hassle about paying for the repairs to the non-standard bumperghts. Unless you advised them of the change after you did it, in which case it's all good :)
Good to hear that no one was injured, auto accidents suck...

Glad to hear everyone is okay, and it's mainly cosmetic damage... from what you saw so far at least. Best of luck!

Thankfully its only cosmetic, and hopefully it wasn't your fault. You could prolly fix the bumper but if the crack is running through the clear plastic part of the headlight you prolly can't fix that. Good luck with it, hope you get your like new soon as possible.

The accident is a weird one. I was turning left in an uncontrolled intersection and the taxi was pulled over to the side. As i turned left he pulled out and bam we hit head on.
I took a real good look its only cosmetic we werent traveling very fast. I was doing about 15km/h he must have been doing about 10km/h. I think the light is toast we will see thou.
BC is really good about modified cars atleast cosmetic modifications. So i dont think ill have to worry about that.
