WheelSee's whip is Injured! *PICS*
well I got in an accident last night not bad and I'm alright...I was on 95 south coming up on the DC beltway and two cars in front of me someone slammed on their brakes and a chain reaction happened I hit the car in front of me if I had prolly 5 more feet we would have just kissed bumpers...the car behind me slammed on their brakes and didnt hit me but did get rear ended...I have better pics I took this morning and I'll post them later...

Wow, sorry to hear about it WC! I'm glad you are OK.
It looks like you got tweaked a bit underhood too. Make sure you get a couple of really good estimates before you start talking numbers with the guy.
Also, since you are looking at replacing your damaged grille, this would be a good time to start thinking about an upgrade. Look around and find the grille that you like and see about including it in your repair estimate - a custom grille won't be that much more than replacing your stock unit. (Just a tip!)
I found a guy on eBay with bumpers HERE. Seems like a great price although you will have to repaint it. If he won't ship let me know and perhaps I can pick it up for you and get it shipped. (Always there for a fellow HHR owner!)
I'm feelin' for you.
Hope it helps!
EDIT: Man, glad to see your headlights didn't get damaged!

I know how you must feel. I got rear ended by one of my neighbors at a stop sighn about 3 weeks after I bought a new Saturn view three years ago. Their is a reason for every thing. It could work out in your favor?
