Karma? I should've used my fists, that isn't karma, thats a an idiot who doesn't know how to drive. btw karma only exists in people when its blatantly there to use as an way of easing ones mind.

First of all, there is much more reasoning behind what I did, it was more then just the car. That sparked it. Second, it was the kid running his mouth and making threats. Lastly, I don't need too hear from some random kid in texas telling me what happened today was karma.

I didn't expect to see that last pic after scrolling down... dayum! I have no clue what caused that but that is epically bad. Good luck on getting it fixed. And I agree that is wayyyy to low for me..

Lol. Average time would be around 3 hours all said and done.

On a side note. HOLY god why did you drive home, that rear is LOW low. No rubbing at all?

Also, I hope you get a new ride. With all of that damage, its never going to ride the same. Hey, at least you will get out of paying for the front . If its fixable, make sure its a reputable shop.

Guess that A-spec kit is going to be longer then expected hahaha. No worries, get this fixed first.

About 15 secs later "boom" tire fell off and went flying into traffic. Didn't hit anything and selttled in the median. Went and got it, picked up all the lugs off the road (they were all right next to each other) was able to jack underneath it and put the tire back on. 2 miles down the road it fell off again at about 50MPH! Lugs again, right near each other. Did the same type of damage of yours. I ended up putting the spare on and took a lug from each other tire and got rolling. Had the truck towed to the shop that morning. Body shop called and said all the lugs were stripped and just popped off under the pressure. More than likely someone was in the process of stealing the rims and my dogs scared them off when they hit the first rim. So I rode around for 2 days with loose lugs, which stripped them out.

Ever since this happened I ALWAYS check my rims whenever someone else touches my car. On the weekends when I clean mine and my bride-to-be's ride they lugs get checked. You never know! I feel for you having this happen, especially since it wasn't your fault and you paid someone to do work on your car. I'd get my money back if nothing else.

The repair bill on my truck was $2600, thankfully I'm full insured
about your incident, but lucky nobody got hurt though
and kinda a different situation about be able to get it back on by yourself, with it being a truck instead of a slammed car




and as far as the OP is concerned, this thread is turning into much WIN

dont even fix that shit.. just take the insurance money, sell the car to insurance company and get yourself a new car.

do not state that you had previous damage to the front driver suspension and let the insurance claim know that it was damaged dued to the accident.

that is probably how i would handle your case.

that car is accident prone.


btw, trust no one.. heck.. i dont even trust my parents driving my car.

You should be thankful of what you have and that it can be fixed with no injury to ANY party.

What the fuck are you complaining about, anyway? Daddy is just going to have to eat the bill and you can still be the temperamental spoiled brat all the while, yeah? It's easy to solve things with fists when you don't have any REAL liabilities, you'll understand this a decade from now...maybe.

Probably NOT a good idea to attempt Insurance Fraud when you've told your story on a public internet forum.

oh god please dont "shoot the fives"

OP definitely dont file an insurance claim for it. dont be stupid, judging from your avatar and you being 18 years old, i assume your parents have money. just get them to pay for it

^not being a dick, being serious

edit: also learn from your mistake, dont trust some 18 year old to install anything that could potentially kill you and or other motorists. ie suspension, brakes and so on
