I must have hit oil or gravel or something because I was taking the turn fine probably going about 20 over. then massive understreer and Trie dto save it and nothing. I didnt want to overcorrect and spin because my little sister was in the back seat so I just slowed down as much as I can and hit going pretty slow, I wasn't looking at the guage but there was minimal noise and we didn't even really bounce forward. Good thing I kept the metal pipe in there from when I had to roll my rear fender a little in the homedepot parking lot after work. I just used that to pry up the fender and drove it home, glad that there might be no real damage. Any guesses on how much to fix with junkyard parts? Valance looks fine but fender and bumper is gone hood has a ding but if it was open fine and won't mess with the new fender then I'm not concerned right now. We are fine but my smoked smileys and MHW turns. And I'm pissed because through 10 owners and almost 200K I'm the one that screwed up and won't have matching numbers on the body panels anymore.

I'll give you $15 shipped for your other MHW turn signal. Yes I'm probably an
asshole for suggesting that at a time like this.

That being said. It sucks man. The pride you have in a car for being all mint is great... and after a crash it's just never the same anymore. But hey... these cars are tanks. Just fix it and keep at it. My car's been through hell and it still looks good. (Well.... it could look perfect... just the damn drifting makes it rough :p)

Best of luck man. Damage doesnt look to bad. If there's anything I can help you with through KO Performance, give me a call and I'll be glad to find you some replacement parts.

This was gonna be the one time I had money after getting paid too and now this happens. Imma see if Mel Abrahams might have a spare drivers side incase they had some damaged sets or anything, if I can't get it. I'll give it to you, just pay shipping. Its going to be atleast a few weeks till I get this car all sorted out first though.

[Erick]

Let me know, I'm in no big rush.

But like I said, if there's anyway I can help you finding parts, let me know and I'll be glad to see what I can do for ya.

[Teaguer]

I'd blame the cheesy ill fitting Rotas for the mad understeer .

[Jean]

That sucks, you are looking at a fender, bumper, headlight and possibly hood and valance at the minimum :(

[Julien]

no biggie, find yourself a d-shwartz parts car and go to town.. you'll have her fixed in a jiffy

Contack Fredk, he is parting a D-Shwarz car right now.

Sucks that this happened man. Good luck with the rebuild.

[FredK]

sup mike. Unfortunately I don't have any of the parts that'll help him redo the front end, except the front bumper, and I don't want to ship it.
