iTrader: (3)

when i do venture over its pretty dead except for maybe 2 or 3 threads. theres a lot of new members now. a lot of the "OG" CL guys have all left to move on to different cars.

Steering wheel pics?

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

their in my thread somewhere.

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

well i guess ill post up this pic. it still hurts to look at it lol. this happened about a month ago. i was driving in the very slow lane going to get food early sunday morning. apparently this lady in a van in the far left lane was about to miss her turn so she decides to kamikaze dive across 3 lanes. she clipped my quarter and i did a 360. i dont think ive ever been so mad in my life. the damage wasnt too bad busted wheel, tire, quarter panel, coilover and upper control arm. the lady was driving her daughters company car so they took care of everything. got the car towed to my shop and got everything fixed. car drives great. the craziest thing about the whole situation was i was talking to my painter about repainting the car this fall 3 days before the accident. so after the car got to his shop to get fixed we figured might as well do it now.

And WTF, why do you wait until a month after the fact to post this sort of stuff?? You did it with the CL too.

I assume you were able to get a replacement wheel?

Did you have the 3/4 panel pulled out or did you get a new one?

It's hard to beat fresh paint

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

Exactly. I did a photoshoot yesterday. The pics are coming out great.

ttribe

Wow. Sorry about the wreck, but it looks like you made the most of the situation. It turned out nice.

dreem1er

iTrader: (2)

Incorrect sir, it quite easy to beat fresh paint, it hasn't harden yet

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

it ended up being a 1 step back 2 steps forward situation. the car got hit but ended up looking much better than it did before.

Aman

I think I would've been about ready to go ape-shit as well. At least the lady had good timing.

Took me a second to realize that the car was damaged in that pic. It still looked stunning, even with the damage. Sounds like it could've been so much worse, though. Can't wait to see pics.

dreem1er

iTrader: (2)

How fast.was she going? That rim has a nice chunk missing, or did you hit something after she hit you

p.diddy

iTrader: (3)

yea it could have been a lot worse. it looked worse than what it was.

she was going pretty fast. the rim and sidewall off my tire a chunk missing.
