Type S Y spoke wheel destroyed by son with less than 400 miles


Let my son take my car around the block and he took a right hander to close to the curb. only 400 miles on my new TYPE S 😪😪 Going to the dealership to have a new one installed tomorrow for $700. If anyone wants to buy the old Y spoke and use as a spare shoot me a text.

"destroyed"... looks like a bit of curb rash, can't you just repair it



also, sucks that your son is now kicked out the house, hope he gets back on his feet.

Lol yeah destroyed is a bit dramatic. I probably could have gotten if fixed but would have drove me nuts to see it because they said I would still be able to tell. The worst part is when I dropped the car off this morning I told Acura to put the black chrome emblems on the entire car without asking about the labor cost.. what an idiot lol! For that I was charged $500 to install..

My son has moved out lol

Based on the damage, wouldn’t hurt to get an alignment check to ensure everything is within spec - I know I would. Good luck on the repairs and let us know how the emblem install goes - I’m sure new emblems will look sharp.
