I dont think its totaled though guys. After the collision I was able to start it up fine and move it to the side. I know theres some axle damage but the car still started up 100% as usual. I guess I will know soon the car is getting towed to the inifitni body shop tomorrow. Btw if anyone here is able to give an estimate assuming there is no mechanical damage and just body damage how much it would be. I know I will be getting an estimate soon but I am curious.

 

That sux.

GL on repair.

 

IMO it doesn't look totaled, although the first thing I would look for in an estimate whether the frame straightness was inspected ... do not go to the bodyshop that can not verify it ... if the frame is OK, you might get a deal on body kit install/paint .... Good Luck!!

 

Just to give you an idea when someone sideswiped my G last year, the damage was on the fender and bumper right around the corner lights. To repair and repaint it costed $1300.00 at California Auto Collission Center which was recommended by my dealer.

 

The towing got delayed a day, but it will be towed tomorrow to Lia collision which is the body shop that Lia infiniti uses. Just want my car back already lol.
If it is deemed to be totaled, I will most likely pick up the same car or maybe a coupe. Not giving up on Gs

 

Update:

Got the estimate today it was 7500 basically. Insurance is paying minus my deductible. Signed the papers for them to start work on it today.

 

Och* that gots to hurt.

 

are you getting the aero/nismo kit painted as well?

 

Does the $7,500 estimate include alignment and balancing? I was involved in a front-end collision before (not in the G), and I had to make sure my insurance estimate include the alignment and balancing services.

 

I am not sure about that, I will have to look over the copy of the estimate which I left at the office. It does not include the nismo kit install. I have decided not to install the kit until I move in the summer. If something like this happened again with my kit on I would be beyond pissed off lol. So I may have to wait a bit for the kit to be put on. But that also gives me the chance to get my wheels, lowering, and kit all done at once.

 

Update T.T. The total estimate revised one comes out to about almost 9 grand.
Work hasn't even began on the car yet, all the parts have arrived and they estimate 60 hours of labor. >.> Funny the car has been in the shop for longer then I've owned it prior to the wrecking.

 

All the Aero kit comes painted.

 

i wasn't sure if he got one used and needed it repainted or something. If he plans on parting it out I would love to get me hands on it!!! hint hint lol

 

I got the Kit new and in my factory color. I will be putting it on in a month or so.

 

very sorry to hear that, i might not even know what you're going through but i feel pretty bad and its not even my car too :[ .. none the less , the G's look so damn cute in the snow especially the snow on the mt. fuji, grills, and the door handles. i so wish it could snow in socal .. those pictures are so priceless. good luck with everything bro
