    5toes: I would also start looking for a knuckle as well depending on how severely you bent your rim and control arm.
    knuckle? Could you please explain this part to me?

      Sigh. Sorry about your car - wish I could say I'm surprised. Glad you are ok.

                        Can't go wrong with white or black. Now having the bell housing on the ground, should I support it? I am basically just scrubbing it than taking a pressure hose to it at a car wash.

                          I had a black E28. Bitch to keep clean. White is much easier.

                          You won't need to. Most of the weight is from the ass end of the trans, so it will keep itself supported.

                              Thanks for the info.

                              The one he was looking at has 135k miles.
                              Ill have to look at what problems they have at that mileage.
