I am joining the "I GOT HIT CLUB"

So I am on Fort Bragg driving about 35MPH and some guy not paying attention wants to change lanes. My passenger saw him coming before I did and was warning me. Once I saw him coming towards me it was to late. SMASH!! POW!!!! SCREECH!!! is all I heard. I am alright and my homie is alright. But the car......... well I will let the pictures do the talking. The cop said it might be totaled but I really hope its not. I only had two more payments and the title would have been mine. I won't get an estimate until tommorrow since I was at work after the accident. So do you think this car is total? My opinion it's not.

The car that hit me with little damage












hey Ron you got a set of Inspyres that u want too give away?


There is a good side to all this also. I get home and guess what the UPS brought me. A Euro rear bumper

OUch sorry man to see it looks like on rim can be salvaged and the other is junk.

I like how rj rims are made tight to the wheel, even though they suffer physical damage i've been through rims that never leaked any air out.

Oshi that blows bro. It doesn't look like its totaled just from what i see from the pics, just looks like it needs some hardcore body work and alignment check and some other bs. Good luck on you car keep us posted.

If you live in cali aren't your window tint illegal and did the cop bother you about that?

One more thing what f was the other person thinking when they put those wheels on that shit looks ugly as f.

nothings wrong with the rj rims its like any rim that hits a wall or some strong force, they give. If you check his rear wheel theres still air in the tire, when in most rims the tire would be deflated.
