Long story short, my Ti got smacked in the left-rear (and down the driver’s side a little bit) this past weekend. Nothing too major (in my opinion), but definitely pushed in the left rear corner. I’m looking to get the corner and the down the driver’s side repaired/replaced- as well as the passenger’s side rear repaired & replaced (rust around the wheelwell arch). I understand there are replacement weld-in quarterpanels available, so it shouldn’t be too horrible. The main concern; I’d like to have this back in less than 3 weeks (hopefully that’s doable). Link to pics for reference: [https://plus.google.com/photos/102505122555986242300/albums/5894181683941116385?authkey=CJa\_ydqw8ZnP0AE](https://plus.google.com/photos/102505122555986242300/albums/5894181683941116385?authkey=CJa_ydqw8ZnP0AE) Any suggestions? Thanks in advance! ---

> [@On another topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/53052/11): > > Out of curiosity did they end up totalling the 318? Nope- apparently it’s totaled as far as insurance goes, but the title stays the same (something to do with age, if it was like 7 or 8 yrs newer, it would have been given a salvage title), so nothing special to do there. I basically got a check, need to get it fixed, and carry on. Went a lot better than expected! ---
