my first accident...
 
Got into an accident today at approximatly 7 P.M. The guy behind me in a Chevy was following too close and fast. I stopped hard at a light and he ran right into me. Everything was fine, all I felt was a push and heard a loud thud. The X was fine, but his truck was pretty beat. Here are some pics to share with everybody:

my exhuast is messed up, and the back bumper. anybody have an estimate on the price of the fix at the dealer?

and please recommend me a dealer to go to that will lend me a car for a few days while its in for repair.

The only things messed up were the exhuast which was a little crooked, the bumper, which was scratched, and the piece above the bumper, which was dented. Other than that, the car was completely fine and drivable. :)
