sliding into curbs are not good
 

see the back rim??? CONTROL ARM IS FUXED! we took off the front bumper to get the car up on to the flat-bed

^^^ bad side

^^^ good side

yup.... pull up the e-brake....... back end came around....... steered INTO the turn...... slid stright into the curb. totally fuxed up the back. we dont know if its just the control arms or the axle :confused: matt, my brother, asked me if i was ok... i said ya... but your rim is ****ed up... he got out and started yelling and bleep bleep bleep :censored: :censored: grabs the camera, took a pic, bleep bleep :censored: :censored: bleep. he was pissed... this just happened about 3 hours ago... ill take some pics in the morning.

btw: yes yes.... we know... :banghead: he is a dumbass :doh: ... dont flame.

ouch ! good luck!

Dude that sux. Good luck fixing it...

Daaaaamnn......That sux. You should try to get some parts at the junkyard. It would be a whole lot cheaper than the dealer.

Good luck. I bent my control arm doing that in my old car and bent something else as well. It never lined up straight again.


What were you doing that for?

Nice move! :D That really does suck though.

reliving my accident
 

ugh sorry about your accident dude. that happened to me this past october. it totally sucked. i loved that accord. the honda dealer said it would cost around 5 Gs to fix everything. i will try to find the list they gave me of what was wrong and post it. but the insurance company said the car was "totaled." so i got about 3100 for it. now i am just waiting for my appeals case because Mass wants to raise my steps.

it looke to me that the crossbone is bent too. that should be around $400. www.evanshondaspecialist.com might be able to help you with that for some low prices.

i am bored at work so i checked out that link. on the "Parts" page...4th row...middle column...on the hood of the car that looks like some took a bat all around the car, there is a skunk. i am so bored, i found that hilarious...so sad

Cool spazzy! Thanks for posting this... I love it when everyone finds out about my mistakes.
Yea, it was a really good night, coming back from my f'ing birthday party, and got a little bit stupid and did this. I hope that I can fix it on my own (we were going to take it to a shop at first). After I get it back together, I am going to take it up to a friend's body shop and have them check the chassis and frame to make sure it's not bent. If it is, the car is going to be sold :\
In other news, I am finacially ****ed! ;(

ouch...good luck fixing that man..

hope it all goes well for ya

That really sucks. I saw a beemer trying to showoff in traffic the other day. He was turning left from a stoplight and gunned it to whip it around. Instead he ended up smacking the curb and messing up his wheel.

Good luck.

Yea... hearing from you guys doing the similar things (or seeing people do it) I don't feel like that big of a dumbass... it was still pretty ****ing stupid.
BTW:

well happy b-day and you got yourself a "nice" present :o

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DUCKY!

happy birthday ducky!

happy birthday d man!

RGR

happy b-day duckydos....mines isn't till Dec:paranoid:

dude good luck with the repairs... you better hope and pray your bearing isnt f'd, cause when i hit ice last january and tapped a crub it bent my a-arm which warped my bearing.. 1 month and 4 bearings later we got one that fixed... not to mention the $1k it cost me...

$1k... ACK! I am hoping to get out of this one for under $500.. I'll keep you guys posted.

woah, that blows man, good luck with the repairs
