Beautiful Zed. Shows you have exceptional taste. Oh by the way it is exactly like mine. Except mine is a 04.

Ouch - nasty looking shunt on a great looking Zed

 

[Mr Whippy]

Yikes, that is not nice

Hope you get it back to it's former glory soon!

 

[Smokin]

Nice looking "before".

What did it mess up other than the trunk/boot lid? Ouch on the quote! Hope she's back to normal soon.

looks like the z held up pretty well from the outside, is it just the boot lid or more structural damage underneath?

It's really hard to tell because a major structural cross beam and crush zone is right inside the rear bumper. It flexes in and allows it to crush up and then pops out looking just perfect.

Hence what looks like a bent boot lid is a $4500+ job

Nice looking zed, sore looking Zed in the last pic, but in the end it is only a car............... hope it gets better soon though

indeed, bumpers always spring back and seem ok, i used to work for the rac in car insurance and you'd be amazed how much damage a sub 20mph shunt can do

Finally got my car back. $7200.00 USD to fix. All i need now is a nice inside/outside detail. Anyone know someone who does great detail work in the Los Angeles Area?

 

[easty027]

for that price, i would have expected a detail !

 

[syphic]

Insurance paid the bill. They did clean it up nice. But I want to get a full pro detail.
