Dumb Accident - Spooky's TL Final Finish

With that said... here comes the bad news... i hear actions speak louder then words... and pictures means a million... video would of been nice but this happened while i was half asleep this morning at 7:30 a.m. while taking my little bro to school... i wasn't even properly dressed for work yet or nothing... well here you go...
Sorry to plegue you with these horrible images... all of you are the first to know...

2. Nope, you guys were all the first to know...
3.
no, not just one... two... the third picture down is the front rim thats all banged up... the fourth pic is the rear rim if you can notice the rear bumper... i can't beleive i lost control of my baby and slammed into a curb... Damage:
2 Panther Rims...
Right Front Suspension...
Looks like it might just be the bolt that holds it together... still i called my insurance and they are going to send a guy out to come take pictures since i didn't get a police report... I figured i didn't need one since no one else was involved... besides me... my poor TL
... and the curb that owned me...Now i have to wait about a week or two to fix it... if the insurance covers the damage with the $250 ded. then i'll get it fixed then... if they don't do nothing... i'm going to have to wait until my next pay check in about a week... man, and i was planning on going to the SF meet on Feb.5th... Oh, well... i guess this stuff happens for a reason...

Anyways... thanks for the support, it could have been worse... i could have been going faster... that wouldn't have been a good idea... Anyways... yeah its being fixed already...
, with cash you can fix anything... time its taken... been about 3 months now... since january... it sucked... and yuuup... i was pissed off for days... my carnalito (lil bro) was pissed off to... he knew i would have to use his truck in turn... sooo he'll be getting his truck back this month hopefully... the insurance has been lagging and finally got to work on it last week... so hopefully everything goes well... Hey hommie... you going to the April 16th meet in the bay area??? check it out...

Ouch...
That's the one advantage to having stock rims and regular tires that stick out a bit... You can hit the curb pretty hard and leave with little to no damage, outside of a dirty/scraped tire wall.
Sorry about the losses man... But at least it's not that bad. You and your bro are fine and the old gal is movin'.

Orale... no no, i meant around sac... I have cousins up there and they introduce me to their friends... but i'm bad with names and faces... so i forget a lot of people that i don't regularly speak to or convers with... I only go up there a couple times a year... but it sounds familiar... thats all... must not be you...
yes 3rd Gen's are invited... a 3rd Gen TL member "neorick" started the whole thing... his even... and its for the children... EVERYONE IS INVITED!!! SO YOU ALL BETTER GO!!! if you can of course... thanks LDH for posting the link... vincent... it sucks... I wish i would have had my stocks on at the time... but hey... i'll have new rims again...
