Unhappy Hit a curb, any serious damage done??

hey guys...

Friend had the same problem when he was trying to drift a corner.. slammed into the curb... his lower control arm was bent way out of shape. You should get that fixed. Probably will run you $150 to $200...

His 2 front wheels were completely bald after about 2 months of driving. They were like racing slicks after (stock firestones).

Most likely you probably bent the lower control arm and possibly the knuckle... If you want to drop buy my shop I can take a look at it... 416-259-6500 and ask for Jayson... Thanks!

Depends on the price of the parts? If there any close to older civic prices than it's not that expensive...
