car problems....

ok.. so i slid my car into a curb the other day, and screwed up my front right rim.... not only did it screw up that rim, but the lower control arm was bent in, and the "knuckle" that the rotor is mounted on, is also messed up.....

when i replaced the lower control arm, and drove it around, my cv boot busted open....

total damage: $690
total labor: $0 (fixing it myself)

this sucks the big one....
