    Slick road + LSD = bad day

    Coming around a corner at maybe 20MPH, I completely lost control of my car.

    100% my fault. I bashed into a guy who was stopped in the left turn lane.

    This is about a block from my house and was first rain in 3 days, the street was slick...but I knew that and drove what I felt appropriate for the conditions.

    Could have been much worse, but this means this car gets parted out.



    Hit him both front and rear. I drove the car home, it is definitely bent bad.



    FML.

        That does suck, I did the same thing almost today but luckily no one was around so she was just wagging her tail for half a block.

              I already have a late model that a cop hit back in november.

              Now I have 2 wrecked E30s.

                  I cant see your tread depth from those photos. R3v? ;) I kid.

                  Sucks! Wasnt your front bumper tucked too? Looks like the passenger side rail might be pushed over a little.

                  Thats the second schwarz army coupe to go down this spring. Weak.

                      Improvement IMO. Bash it out, drive it some more.

                      Status: HG repair. 488wtq though!

                            A good body man can straighten that all. And since its black you can get away without blending. Doubt there is any frame damage. I say fix it, all day long.

                              I would proudly claim this as a R3V if we can make an exception for the fact I have excellent tread on my tires.
