I feel for you bro, hope you are ok. Hopefully it's just cosmetic damage, and you can be back on the road in no time

Damn this week just isn't good for 7's.

that sucks dude.

it looks like my car! except mine's not wrecked. Hope it will stay that way, but i'm only 16, so who can tell?

j/k, if i ever wreck my car, you won't hear about because I'll probably commit suicide.

just kidding.

but not really...

Looks like he ran into a pole or something, looking at that noticeable dent in the bumper.

matt, tell your step bro that the e-brake is not a 'u-turn lever' and then take his face to the radiator, cheese-grater style

Just get the hood off and look at the frame rail where the top fender bolts are and see if it has any kinks in it. See pic of #98

I got free body panels paid to pull the frame and paint whole car and did the work myself with the help of some friends.

cost about 1G but it looks great and drives fine.
