Ummmm so yeah I crasehd my car today. But thank god it was only the shell and not the frame that is damaged. I may have snaped something were the tire is, does anybody see that crack near the bottom were it connects at the bottom. Also any body kit suggestions?
Is that a crack or is it supposed to be there.

If that is the crack that you are talking about then I would definatly get it fix cause that is part of your suspension and steering mechanism. Cause that's your Tie Rod that's cracked.
Get it checked out soon!!!

I'm happy my car isn't a write off. This is my first real car that I bought and I was two seconds away from snaping. But my dad is making sure it won't get written off. Well what happend I got cut off by a truck going on to the highway, it was a two car on ramp and got cut off well more of forced into the gaurd rail. Plus I get to pick the parts to replace. So I guess that is a crack than, gotta get that fixed. I'm not thrilled but you gotta look at the better side of everything. I get to keep the car, maybe a body kit, fresh coat of paint. List goes on and on

Ok so anyways the damage isn't too bad considering I smoked the curb before the gaurd rail going 80. I was looking into a Acura EL conversion but than it's too much $$$ .I'm getteing a Bomex body kit put on, and halo headlights I'll have unpainted pictures soon as I get all the parts. Here is a parts pic of the damage since some of you wanted to know.
