Ok, i first got my car, i bent a stock gsx wheel on a pothole... i was like ok, il get rims, so i got my rims. 4 days later, i bent one on a pot hole, 3 weeks after that i bent another one..


NOW TODAY i ****ing go around a turn at like 15 mph, and it was all black ice, i keep going straight and hit the curb, launch about 1/2 foot in the air and land on some dudes ****ing front lawn.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHH im so pissed, my car is leaking oil, it is un-aligned and my damn tire was almost flat when i got home :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: .... my car is broken, GOD DAMNIT! now my stock rims are ruined, and now my adr's are ruined, i dont know which way to turn, new wheels? steelies? i dunno. im so pissed off right now....

Man that sucks. Were they dedicated snow tires?
I will never run another winter up here without my snow tires.
I am guessing that it was the other side this time? So now you have two bent ADR's?
Take a few minutes to gather yourself. I know it sucks smacking into stuff(look at my bumper), but the car can be fixed. Wasn't there a set of stockers for sale in the For Sale thread? Maybe slap them on for now?
Either way, goold luck with it.

(EDIT)Never mind, it was YOU that was selling them.(EDIT) sorry to hear still.

Balls man...that sucks. But like Mike said, it can be fixed.

Look at me, I put my front end on, and the HG goes. I leave the car in my driveway, and my FRP bumper cracks. I've just shrugged it off as "**** happens".

Weaksauce. You should go with ****ty wheels for wintertime. I regret using my stockers.

Chris, do you have any larger photos of your car?

Nothing yet, Chris other than the ones on supermotors.org from my thread in the Imports section. I'll be picking up a nice digital came in the next week or two, and then I'll get some good photos of her.

I wonder how much that will raise your premium? :(

I was gonna bust your balls Chris, but it appears Bri beat me to it :rolleyes:

Anyway, I'm clearing all the pics off of Brooke's camera tomorrow night so we could take some pics w/her camera. It's a decent 4.0MP camera. Should take some good pics. I actually wanted to try and take pics of all 3 of us.

yeah it might be too late but see if this will affect your premium or not. if it does, it could easily go up $500-$1000 or more a year for the next 3-5 years, which would be pretty crappy in the long run.
but either way, nows your chance to change the bumper, IC, and wheels (if you want to).

well im changing my insurance company march 17, not because of this, i had planned on it anyway. AAA cost me almost 6000 a year, my new insurance will only be 2100 a year... BIG difference. Im still waiting on a estimate, i didnt even bring my car in yet to get looked at. O and by the way, my mom works at faulkner caddillac, hummer,toyota blah blah (theres like 6 dif. car companys at her work), so im sure my estimate will be of nice value.
