**MapleredT/a** · 03-24-2006, 11:53 AM

I wasnt the one driving, my sister was and she pulled from a stop sign in front of a car and slammed on the brakes and spun the car around 2 times and down in a ditch

Man I feel for ya.

at least that's a cheap repair

I hit a curb at like 35mph and bent the tie rods, damaged the sub-frame, blew out the steering rack, destroyed the control arms, shattered the rim, and even scraped the bottom of my BRAND NEW BUMPER!!

2 weeks before I hit the curb, I had a new bumper installed and a complete front-end paintjob... ran me $1300...

Damn!!

**ScrapMaker** · 03-26-2006, 07:34 AM

hey maplered, have you gotten an estimate?

**MapleredT/a** · 03-26-2006, 05:07 PM

Right now its at 7500-8500 dollars. I checked on her friday and she was completly torn down and she was on the frame machine.

going through insurance???

when I hit the curb, I bent the control arm, knuckle, and the sub-frame was non-repairable where the control arm mounted... obviously the tie-rods were outta there, and the bumper had to be repainted as a whole since it's plastic...

after they installed a new steering rack, I think I'm looking at roughly $5,000!!! for just knicking a damn curb!! arg... sometimes these low-profile tires have their weaknesses... I've seen friends hit curbs harder than I did, but with their 14" rims, they bounce right on over...

hopefully they will get all the bodywork done right for you... if you are going through insurance, or not, make sure that they get it perfect... make sure the panels line up flawlessly etc... you don't wanna drive off in the car, only to notice it later... they can claim all sorts of stuff...

DAMN!! That sucks ass bro, i feel for ya. Especially since our cars are practically identical. Its kind of weird.

**MapleredT/a** · 03-28-2006, 03:52 AM

Is your car lowered? Could you post some bigger pictures of your car? I love that color, i was told its a pretty rare color to.

**RAWPWR3** · 03-28-2006, 05:04 AM

Nah, i wish! Its probably the grass that makes it look lower. I dont know how to post pics bro, sorry. But i now have the ram air hood and air box and it looks SICK! And the color match is perfect too. I only wish i knew how to post pics.

**MapleredT/a** · 03-28-2006, 05:11 AM

Where did you get your hood from and how much did you pay for it? I was gonna get 1 and just pay the difference in price after the insurance but the earliest one i could get was 6-7 weeks. Nobody on here had 1 for sale. And everybody on ebay that had 1 were being a dick and didnt want to just let me buy it early. Sweet ride by the way

Thanks, i went to a place online called "ramairhood.com". It was 1200 and change for the functional hood, painted, with the air box, the decals, the grills, and its made out of the same plastic material that the other body panels on our cars are made of, and the color matching was perfect, and i mean perfect! The flake and everything came out great and the finish was amazing!
