    Default air bags

    i got in a wreck and both of my airbags deployed. the damage to the front isn't that bad. need new fenders, front bumper, hood, and radiator. my question is if the air bags deployed do you think the insurance is going to total the car?

    Its got less to do with whether they deployed, its total cost of repair vs percentage of car value.

    if it reaches 75% of the value it will total and if it got into the radiator and fenders then you probably need a new radiator support also and that will start you add up, you might wanna start looking for a new car homie...

    I asked a girl if i could buy her a drink, she said I have a boyfriend, so I said, well i have a goldfish, she said what? I replied, oh I'm sorry I thought we were talking about shit that doesnt matter.

    sadly it did, not even half a mile from my house. went across a patch of ice and my car lost control or should i say i lost control. it slid me into the opposite way and hit a lady head on. so i'm waiting for a call today to find out if they'll total it or not.

    i tried going to take some of my stuff that was left in out and take pictures, but they only work till 6. i get off of work at 5 and they towed it to lilburn, so i can never make it on time. i feel anxious as hell waiting for the stupid phone call.

    damn that insurance dude needs to hurry the fuck up and call me. while waiting i've been google-ing airbags and so far it comes out that for both it shouldn't be more than $1500. so i'm thinking it will be fixable!!

    hopefully it will be. My moms sequoia was in a wreck and both airbags deployed. The value was around 15k and the repairs cost 13k and they didnt total it out.

    did you win or lose? yea i got a ticket, but get this; before the cop goes and writes the ticket he says "yea the same thing happened to me, there is not much you can do here." than 10min later he comes back and writes me a ticket for failure to maintain lane. here i'm thinking wtf was the point of telling me that story if you're going to write me a ticket and not like i can keep my lane when i hit ice!

    it also just depends on the insurance company..when it is an older model car..majority of the time..they will total it out depending on the damage

    I don't think it'll be too bad. Had friend with an 2001 S2K who slid into a curb and messed up the whole driver side. I mean broken calipers, rims, struts, and the whole side was dented up. Yet it was still insured and wasn't total'd. Then a year later a truck hit him in the back real bad, but it still wasn't total'd out. and that was a good 3-4 years ago. BTW insurance was State Farm.

    tell the lawyer to call your insurance company and do not talk to him, also they are going to lowball you on the price of your car and i know a few things to piss them off to pay more. make sure you have pictures. i sent you a PM.

    found out where they take it for auction, like iaa south of loganville, we can go in with tools and i'm in the system since i fight insurance companies to pay out more on total loss claims, we can show up for an "appraisal" and rip it out. seriously do not accept the insurance companies offer!!! and make sure to tell them the lady did not get into the ambulance and go to the hospital.
    Check out my for sale threads!! 15" competition speakerbox, 1TB External hard drive, and plenty of car parts!!!

    I Need some WRX, 350Z, 240SX, Really any car owner to let me do R&D for Ground Kits, Please Let me See the layouts!!!
