looks like you need f/r bumpers... WALD KIT!

this is the perfect oppurtunity to build your dream w124 on someone elses funds and do it legally. dont total it out. plus youll get extra money by saying youre hurt.
little does anyone know, the reason my car was in the shop was bc some 80 yr old korean lady ran a red light and hit me so her insurance paid for everything (kit, paint, body work, everything)
my whole front end was smashed in but not totaled out
think it out big dawg

I'll take better pictures later so you can see the other damages. The whole rear is gone. Everything that was in the trunk area has been pushed in. Like the trunk went through the rear wheel wells.

All the doors open and shut properly except the right rear passenger. It's not aligned anymore so it doesn't close shut fully. For some reason my sun visors don't pop in perfectly anymore either ...

Hey man, so sorry to see your car like that. My best advice would be to find a dream w124 shell and start transfering everything over. You'll have so much cash left over you'll be able to go all out with it and out in cali for 1500 bucks you can get one with good paint and some issues. You will have two cars to chose the shiniest parts from and then sell the rest and still come out with 3k from parts alone.
Make sure you act wierd and distressed in the next few days to get mental and physical damages comped for as well. Her million dollar liability policy could end up in your pockets if you play it right.
Sorry once again to hear about the accident but you're ok for the most part.
Pete

I AM SOO BUMMED OUT!!!!
ONE LESS ONE2FOUR...GLAD YOUR OK...
I know how u feel after i crashed my benz for the third time 3 weeks ago i was like WTF!!! I'll keep rebuilding mine till it gives up because i love that car!!
If you need help getting another 124 or tranfering over parts let me know or PM me..Also i know some body shops who deal with this kind of damage and restore total losses to sell them as salvage but it's better just to get another shell with a clean title.
Dude seriously your car was what made me kinda keep me going on my project so let me know and i'll help you build another bad *** 124..

thanks for looking out Ab.
I could use some help removing the Bilsteins and Vogtlands since I don't have the tools to do so and none of my friends know where to get them as well.
If you know anyone selling a W124. Let me know! I probably wont be transferring parts since most of the stuff is already off the car.
and by the way ... you W124 guys is what kept me going with my car as well

I will once the seller gets back to me. Hopefully it'll have low miles. If it does then I'm definitely jumping on it right away.
