Default Wrecked S2000

Well guys, Mother Nature caught up with me today. Getting off the exit from I-275 was nothing but a pool of water. Looped around a full 360, across all 3 lanes of traffic before hitting the inside guardrail. Not sure extent of all the damage yet. Anyone got tips or advise, never really had an accident before, don’t know what to expect with insurance.

Woof. I had my S2000 spin around on me in Columbus and did the same thing, went across 3-4 lanes but I somehow had enough luck built up that I didn't hit a single thing. My first thought is it's probably totaled, but really it looks like its all hood/fenders/bumper cover and nothing to the actual metal bumper itself or frame. I can see this going either way on how they handle it. If this ends up totaled I'd think you could do some fun aftermarket stuff to the front and be back on the road in no time (assuming no frame damage) Also did the airbag go off?

Could be totaled. I totaled a car in the past (Prelude). Insurance gave me enough to buy the same car (another prelude). Then bought the totaled car back from insurance for dirt cheap. I took the stuff I liked out of the totaled car and parted out the redundant stuff and made my money back on buying it back plus thousands of dollars. If you have a garage that's a great option.

Did you get your car fixed, is it at source 1 by any chance.

It is at source 1. It is not totaled. Still in the shop, hoping next week to get it back. No Frame damage, and the airbags didnt go off.

I saw it while they were working on mine a few weeks ago.

Good deal! It looks very fixable.
