Glad you came out ok from that accident. Looked pretty bad. Do some searches on the board and you'll find some HRE's on CLK209's. Happy modding.

Whats the story? Bmw's are strong cars as well, it looks like if you had a passenger they would have been fuked. You must have got hit hard for the car to cave in like that. Good thing your ok.

well i dont remember anything, i woke up at the hospital with a concusion. it seems that i was on the 101 exiting tampa ( going home) i was waiting for the light to turn green and when it did i went and the guy on the other side was im assuming sleeping ran the red light and ran into my passanger side taking me about 100 yards...i woke up at the hospital with no clue where i was and what happened, just yelling for someone to contact my girlfriends number , which for some odd reason , no reason at all broke up with me one week later.


when i was at the hospital i think the other guy didnt pass his catscan and had some sort of internal bleeding. i was in there for two days , while they were observiing me for my concussion. its 3 weeks later now and i still have some serious pains and spazms. grr


BMW's are strong cars but sometimes tehres nothing it can do to keep its shape....

Did anyone see your car after the accident and say if you had a passenger it would have been all over for them? I wonder if a passenger would survive that kind of accident? Thats my biggest fear in my car....getting hit from the side. I figure the front and back are rock solid, but how about the side? Seems like a head trama just waiting to happen!
Glad you are OK. here's a couple small mod's I did...nothing too big, but you might like them. I added an AMG silver dead pedal on the left side of the brake. Looks nice...sorry no pics! Also got a silver emergency brake square thingy with AMG on it. Also looks cool! Then I changed the parking lights (city lights) to a whiter (more blue?) bulb. PIAA 969?? can't remember the number. Better than the yellow lights now!!

I hope this helps with some ideas...I haven't gotten a chance to do much yet. This car really needs a sub woofer or a whole new radio system. The stock system really sucks!!

Good luck and post pics!!!!

I think the passenger would have most likely been killed. That was a nasty hit. I wonder how fast he was going?
