^I am sooo freaking bummed right now. It's pretty funny though, because I just commented on jspec's accident this morning, and then this happened just about 30 minutes ago!!!






I look away for like 2 seconds, and a mini-van stops in front of me, because someone was in the freaking street!!!!!! I am sooo pissed right now. The van has like 3-4 scratch/scuffs on the bumper, and look what I get!!!!!

Looks like I gotta pull a little bit, and fix the fender, most likely get a new hood, and maybe a bumper, plus pay for the other guys bumper. It sucks, cause I'm a very responsible driver, and have never hit anything with a car. I was driving like 30-35, in a 40 zone.

To make things worse, I don't have a job!!!!!
I just got my last unemployment check as I am typing, and am not sure if I will be eligible for an extension. Oh well, praise God, glory, hallelujah!!!!!! It's life, it happens.

PM me if you have anything I need to get my front end straigtened out. Hood, fender, etc. I do have some money saved up right now. Thanks if you do.

Yea same here. I hate seeing my car like this, but it's not as bad as it could've been. Thankfully though, a good friend of mine has owned a body shop in the past, (he's about 55-56 years old) and is very good at doing body work, aswell as painting cars. He still does some body work out of his garage, as side jobs, and this will be cake for him. So hopefully he has some time next week open, and can get my baby straightened out. I'll post pictures as soon as she's lookin' good again.

Oh yea, here's the bumper of the mini-van I hit.

He was cool about it and is gonna get a quote from a shop, and I'll just pay for the damage my self, instead of going through my insurance. I don't want my insurance to get me for this.

I concur with shiftdrift. It's just that the wheel/tire combo looks like it needs to be on a mini truck.

But whatever. It is still a two tone.

Wheel/tire combo is fine, just needs more negative camber and lower ride height.

I want you to make this your goal: There should be just enough room between the fender and wheel lip to stick your finger. That is perfection. Anything else, you make me disappointed. Don't make me disappointed, make me happy.
Also, it might help if you take your tire pressure down from 80psi or whatever they are set at. Like seriously, your car is so close to being the jam, you just need to make a few fine adjustments. Maybe even keep your current camber settings and run bolt on flares, or do a pull.

And I want to thank every member of the two-tone preservation society for making this thread what it is, and showing such an appreciation for these special S13's!

Haven't got around to posting mine yet so here it is. Picked up the car last year from an older guy that got it from a friend that owed him some money. He knew nothing about it except it was a "pussy auto import" LOL. Anyways ended up picking the car up for $700 and everything was in excellent shape besides the paint. So I've just been slowly working on it as a project car. Dont have any pics of the motor at the moment but an rb25 is going in. And for anyone that would like to see more pics... NoteWorthy

who ownes a two-tone seafoam in the Harford County area of Maryland. I saw it one night parked at Planet Fitness, but couldnt really figure who owned it...it looked clean, so I gotta figure you're in here somewhere, just want to give props.

I wonder if two-tone would work on my G35???
