        Ha, I've been there except I hit the back and it was way worse. Good luck!

          Not exactly R3V material, but you got the idea :!:

          Doesn't look too bad. If the mounting points didn't get tweaked fixing it is a simple matter of bolting on straight bits.

            It's not that easy to lose control, even when wet, unless you're really pushing it. Be more careful next time. ;) Good luck getting it back into drivable shape...

              Yeah... I know...:(

              No more showboating like a 17-year-old prick.

              But yes, I have a new control arm and sway bar connector and the bushing is on its way. Plus a new set of weaves. Sigh... my wallet hurts. Such is life.

                It could have been much worse. If that had been a rice burner you would have had a much bigger bill and the insurance company would have totaled the thing!

                          Yep, I guess that's true. And thanks, the fix went pretty smoothly -- got it all taken apart and buttoned back up in about 3 hours, so now I just need to get it aligned tomorrow.

                              Hey I heard you fucking suck at driving?

                              Could just be a rumor though right?
