Well there is sheet metal damage and more so shattered nerves rather than
bruised ego, but that will set in later I bet. I am still kind of shaky and
it wasn't even that bad of an accident. Anyways take a look and whimper for
my poor 90:

Actually doesn't look that bad now that I look at, but it ain't gonna be
cheap. I think the hood and fender can be saved, at least it looks that
way. The top of the bumper is toast, but I have those european bumpers in
NY which I will probably end up fitting in place of fixing this one. I can
get an RS2 light cheap from my importing source so now worry with that. I
actually have the missing piece of the front grille, the superglue holding
my homemade grille gave out obviously. The side support holding the bumper
is broken. The lower under light trim must be replaced. It doesn't look
like anything else was effected, but I am going to check more now and remove
the busted headlight.
Thanks for all the kind notes! I will probably swing by Washburns in
Williston today for a quickie estimate. Too bad I am scheduled to be in NY
tomorrow and then drive to RI on Tuesday to pick up mum's new allroad, in my
car of course. I may have to delay something's and I might try to make an
insurance claim if the price of the body work is really expensive, but I am
afraid of my rates going up.
Thanks,
