cheese20323 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 So recently my brother crashed his car it was his college present from my parents he had it for like 3 yrs and my parents had only liability insurance I'm only 15 and my bro said if i fixed it it would be mine but once im able to drive(1 year) so lil by lil I've been fixing it. The side that was crashed messed up both struts so I was like ill get some coilovers so i got the coilovers on by myself then i needed a fender ordered it and now i bought 2 doors so for now i just need the rear bumper and quarter panel. The guy from the bumper said 1600 to fix it without the parts so i bought him the parts now i just need 1600 to finish it and like 400 for some details here and there...so yeah ever since he got the car i liked how it looked the difference it had from all the other altimas it was more squarish and looked/feels more sporty. It's a 6-speed so imma have to fix it and learn how to drive it too lol. So like in about a month imma have the cash ready for this badboy. Now i need some opinions my brother always wanted some carbon fiber i thought it looked pretty cool since the car is silver...so im thinking about getting carbon fiber vinyl for the mirrors a lil piece under the bumper and the weather guard thingies on the door. Now less talk and more pics! Before: After : Getting pulled by my dads F-250 V10 FTW! Rebuild Process! ^^^^Airbag Seat? Lol too much! Coiovers on! GAUGES! after sitting for 4 months it needed a wash! 92 Accord Build

Audio-Concepts Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 hell yeah its fixable, but not for 2k!! The air bags alone are prolly 1500, the seat cover is prolly 400, the bumper covers 4-500, the doors prolly 800-1000 then you have all the body work in the pillar areas, which need to be pulled, not bondo'd over. I mean seriously this is a 4-5k job before paint! I would recommend going through nissan for doors and airbags, to way to crutial areas to use aftermarket. But good luck with build, the ser's are great Altimas, just learn how to drive it before you get crazy. Those cars are pretty quick and I would hate to see it happen again to such a nice car!

hdorre Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Not only will repairs be expensive for this... but insurance too (especially because its an SE-R) If you get it fixed up properly and take care of this, it should last you quite some time. Did you brother just hand it to you? If so, thats pretty damn cool.

LoudBimmer Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 2 doors and 2 bumpers will cost 2k+ paint job and a lot of other things. I'll say it's at least 3-5k to fix everything.
Louisiana Bass Posted July 11, 2011 Report Posted July 11, 2011 Even if it cost 5k to fix it, I see it as a pretty sweet deal. It's alot to fix it. But once it's fixed, he could easily get his money back for resale. N8. No homo...unless you want there to be.

Airbags Im getting a deal on some a guy on a nissan forum is parting out his car 200 for the airbags i need and 200 for an ECU flash. dude thats alot more than 2k to fix. air bags alone are over 2k. airbags ✔ front bumper✔ fender✔ wheel✔ front door✔ rear door✔ rear quarter rear bumper seats need reupholstered at least✔ rear door jamb is trashed✔(new with 1/4 panel) front door jamb looks beat(its ok)✔ paint for all this(paint on only necessary parts)✔ labor(he already quoted 1600)✔ no way thats 2k: Im almost done. fixed your posts with what i have. Not only will repairs be expensive for this... but insurance too (especially because its an SE-R) If you get it fixed up properly and take care of this, it should last you quite some time. Did you brother just hand it to you? If so, thats pretty damn cool. Not a complete handof but it will be mine in a year or 2. Plus imma be driving it around here since my dad dont know stick and i need to try it out before it gets sent back. Even if it cost 5k to fix it, I see it as a pretty sweet deal. It's alot to fix it. But once it's fixed, he could easily get his money back for resale. no resale on this it looks to fly! 92 Accord Build
