skateelements16 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 ok long story short... lost control.... my cars really low... took out a mailbox... and the curb case some pretty bad frame damage... ill have pics up in a lil while but that lower i gues bumper bar got shoved back... inturn pushed the radiator up and the hood latchin mechanism is no longer perfectly vertical.... its now at a slant.... Can this front end frame damage be fixed or should i call it quits on this car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancy Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 ouch, see if your insurance declares it totaled and maybe theyll give you what its worth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS John Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 Haha, that's for true. Sucks that you got all that damage from not killing a dog. Normally I would not swerve or brake hard to avoid hitting an animal, since the potential damage to humans both in my car or in others is too great, but a dog? Come on, man. That's some kid's best friend. Either this is karma punishing you for something crappy you did, or you're gonna be richly rewarded for sacrificing your car to save that dog.
