Think this can be buffed out?
So going to work this morning, 7:30am so worst of morning rush hour. I am in the far left lane when a guy in a 2500 series Chevy pickup makes a right hand turn lane. He decided he had to get all the way across instantly and side swiped me both of us doing about 45... threw me onto the median almost into oncoming traffic. Now I am cruising a Nissan sentra pos. On the positive side only property damage and no injuries... so could have been a much worse morning

Any idea what kind of suspension, sub frame or motor damage that did? It looks like some fluids were leaking out from under there.
That sucks, I really hate people who panic and do stupid stuff like that, just go make a freakin u-turn instead of freaking out about making THAT turn. Sorry about the car, hopefully they get her all fixed up soon. And oh yeah, I think that'll buff right out!

It's being looked at so not sure on sub damage. We were not sure if that was fluids or water, it was raining last night. Air bags did not deploy so there is that too. Oil and coolant was still full so could have been break fluid or... gasp... trans fluid. I'll know next week the extent of the damage. Other guy's insurance is taking care of it luckily... up to a 33% chance of someone not having insurance in this next of the woods

Relax, all right...? My old man is a television repairman, he's got this ultimate set of tools. I can fix it.

Glad you both are ok. Now make him buy you a brand new Camaro. Id see if they can total the car out and buy a whole new car. Especially if there is damage underneath. Ooo im in pain seeing this.
