    My car was hit by a taxi that drove into the incoming lane, the driver fell asleep. The cab hit me halfway, striking the left rear door, hitting the tire which blew up, and going on until the rear bumper. I'll try to post pics. My rear left suspension sheared and my car had to be towed to the police station.

    How much do you think the damage is worth?

    Please let me know what you think, the operator thinks I'm overcharging.

    Thank you.

    Will the operator pay for the bills? Damn taxi drivers, falling asleep while driving, pwede mo demanda yun.

    hindi ko alam ang labor rates sa pinas but that's a lot of work - replace (wag kang papayag na masilya lang) rear door, rear quarter panel (this is a PITA), rear suspension...repaint rear door, quarter panel and bumper, possibly blend onto front door, roof and trunklid - a good painter would probably end up spraying half of the car.

    not to mention replacing any mechanical components, suspension, one rim + tire, etc. the good news is that it probably won't have frame damage.

    just to give an idea, honda casa repaired the damage on this car for ~P130k



    i don't remember whether the fender/door were replaced but the car was back looking new ... it was hit by a speeding tricycle with a stupid unlicensed driver who lost control when he avoided hitting another vehicle

    naku! malaking tama yan!!! i use to be an estimator sa casa... get it estimated muna sa casa... para sure ka... umatras yung gulong mo sa wheel well eh...

    sori to say.. but masama po tama mo.. quarterpanel.. pinakamasakit na matamaan na panel since ndi po sya bolt on. as much as posible.. try to retain the old quarter panel.. basta wala butas if honda tries to tell you that they want it replaced tell them try to fix it muna.. kahit sabihin pa nila.. plasma cutter gamit nila and all.. pag quarter panel is replaced.. ndi na parang original yan since cut and weld na.. kahit pa mahusay yung latero and pag pinutol yan masmadali kalawangin kesa sa rapainted panel. and dami papalitan sa mechanicals.. sa ilalim po

    bali sa visible sa pic.. ang masusugest ko lang po palit and repair isbut ndi ako sure kung repairable pa yung iba coz of pic ko lang nakita)

    replace:
    door panel
    lh rr door side moulding
    lh lower side skirt
    rr bumper cover
    lh rr bumper cover moulding
    1 pc mag wheel
    1 pc tire
    1pc mags center emblem
    lh rr mudguard
    mechanical parts(suspension)

    tin job and paint job on:
    lh quarterpanel
    lh runningboard

    but the important thing is malayo kayo sa pahamak since sa sides lang tumama

    good luck po Cal. hope you get this fixed with no problem

    gusto yata ng operator masilya lang. Pero wala ba silang insurance para magbayad ng damages?

    Rear Door: $551.68
    Rear Bumper: $121.00
    Alloy Wheel: $299.00
    Tire: $54.00
    Quarter Panel: $522.00
    Door Moulding: $58.53

    Sub-total: $1,606.21
    Plus labor, paint, any other parts that I missed, and suspension damage, if any.

    Sigurao mga $5,000 total kung andito sa US yan. Imagine kinyo's damage, 130K na pala yon!
