my car kised the side wall! sunday morning i was driving home from san bruno. my tire blew and i lost control. dangz! going 70mph on the freeway. rear driver tire died and i flew into the wall.. spun out and hit it again with the back side of my car. GEESH! wut a way to end my birthday weekend! haha!
at any rate. i'll be in the market for new bumpers (front and rear), possibly a LOW BUDGET CF hood and i'll also have my eyes peeled for some headlights as well. so let me know if ya'll know of anything. im not looking to spend a lot of money. if you're going to make any suggestions on this thread.. pulez include links/fotos/prices/etc.. thanks!

Rep Power: 0 did you find out what caused the tire to go out yet?
edit - oh yea... really sucks for your rims since they're out of production
hope you get a lot of $$$ from insurance

Rep Power: 0 so far not much has happened with the car. it's jus sitting at the booty shop waiting for the insurance adjuster to come out. once they give their bids for the car they'll show me how much money they've alloted to which car parts. then i'll take that and see if i can't ATLEAST get a CF hood, that's the only thing i'd like to get outta this.. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?!?! tehe!
im might look at different lip kits as well.. perhaps headlights. (am i repeating myself?! lol)
thanks for all the well wishes! bah! i miss my car.....

i thought i'd just stop. but i suppose traveling seventy miles per hour doesn't mean you STOP. all i remember is spinning! seeing cars coming towards me and then being back on the shoulder, facing the cars.

anywayz, yes.. it's rather bad as far as the alignment. if you look at the page i posted up THERE.. i put a side shot of the passanger side. OMG! the entire headlight is pushed UP and BACK. the air box is completely shot, as i turned the car on yesterday and could hear that it wasn't connected. i am planning on going by there to take some photos of the engine today or tomorrow. BAH! WUT A HEADACHE!
my friend suspects that there might be some frame damage to that corner. so we'll jus have to wait and see.... err..
