Better clean up that coolant before the animals get to it! haha jk but damn that sucks. Care to share the story? I'd love to help but I'm sort of in south carolina... and you're not. Good luck anyways though.

ok well it was me following my buddy out of the parking lot and the light had just turned green on the east bound light (i was making a left turn) so i sped out. bad move, there was a patch of ice in the far lane and i ran right over it. lost traction and didn't react fast enough to get off the throttle all the way, car jack knifed and i counter steered.(now at this time i'm bout 60 degrees going into on coming traffic and its one car that i can possibly hit) just so happens that car that i can hit isnt seeing this happen so its going its same speed. i'm sliding slow enough that his front end (which had a plow) passes me and i'm sliding next to him. just when i think i might make it, pow hit him directly in the wheel hub (full cab pick up truck) and this is the damage. noob mistakes all on me oh yea he had a scuffed center stud cover, thats it!

yea, that's more than 3000 worth of damage right there if you take it to nissan to fix, that's going to be a total loss. Sorry about the accident guy, best start ripping whatever you want to keep off of it and look for a new car.

That sucks! Sorry it had to end up this way, if you were going to fix her up I had a brand new front bumper that I don't need that I could sell you.
