gotta properly introduce myself..

hey everyone!

My name's Emerson, from the san fernando valley in California. Not so new on NAM, but haven't really been using it, been to busy to really be active on this forum. Got my CR/B r56 beginning of March, now with 12,000 miles on it. Sad to say though.. but i got rear-ended a few weeks ago on the freeway... Traffic suddenly stopped (LA traffic) and the person behind me was not paying attention and straight up hit me. Hopefully my baby will be going into the shop this week to get repaired. Need a whole new rear bumper and exhaust tips are bent. Hoping to replace the stock exhaust with the Invidia catback.

Welcome! It's a shame to hear about the accident, but it doesn't sound too bad. I once picked up a new car from a dealership only to get rear ended about 2 hours later in the exact same way!

I have a CR/B MCS on order, should be here around mid-September. The wait is killing me.

BTW, I used to live in the valley as well until I moved up to northern CA.

Welcome to NAM. My sympathies on the accident. Hope the insurance covers the bulk of it.

thanks for the welcome guys!

Yeah, damage on the car wasn't too bad at all, especially compared to what happened to you. I wouldn't be too happy with my car getting hit the same day i got it . But i think it was the neck pain and headaches that made it way more unpleasant. Never realized how heavy my head was!

BTW, congrats teceng on the CR MCS . I am definitely loving the CR/B combo. September is coming right up, the car should be there in no time!
