whats a Protege look like after T-boning a SUV

A SUV pulled out infront of me with out seeing if it was clear this past summer. Needless to say I'm suprised how my car held up. No engine damage at all, but there was 8g in damages other wise. Cars back and running perfect. I hit him doing approx. 55 km/h. What you can't see is the Rad is Bent into a V. The the attachement pics are the ones showing the damage. The other one is how my car looks now.

I'm glad I made it too seeing as the airbags never deployed and the seat belt never locked, can you say WTF!

Yeah that looks pretty bad, glad your ok! And I agreee with Moke, real nice rims, they look perfect for the car and the white on black looks kool! Drop the car an inch or two and that would look so nice!(if your into that sorta thing)

good to see it survived. You should put an SUV sticker on the side, sort of like a "kill"

damn! I got hit by a motorcycle after having my 99 protege for two months in 2003. sadly enough I just got done fixing all of the body damage. by the way! apparently protege's hold up to SUV's more than they do motorcycles! (I hate motorcycles...)
