Yeah man even a little bump can do quite a bit of damage. I'm just glad she's fixed as I've been driving around in my 88 GTA and that thing is nothing short of petrifying in the snow!

 

billions of threads on importance of snow tires and now this? LOL

 

Cheers man... she's been down for less than a week but boy have a missed her.

 

Yeah you're right man...that's frikin hilarious

 

well I guess aluminum is more brittle when it's cold outside. It was a hot FL summer day when I had my incident. (knock on wood)

Glad you got her back on the road, looks like the rims held up just fine too! Now get some snow tires on them and hopefully you have some better luck in the future.

 

Just get an alignment... it should cure your problem.

 

Very nice work dude.

 

I'm happy you didn't put a claim in for the damage. I am so sick of people jacking up their evos and then putting in claims.

Nice repair job.

 

I f**ked around a couple years back and lost control at a turn in heavy dust but dry road at around 110 and end up hitting the curb with my drivers side wheel at around 75mph I have absolutely no clue how I didn't flip over and yeah lesson learned that's only time I tried anything like that on the street and my only time my evo gets ***ED! The wheel was at a 60 degree angle to the floor pretty bad....so yours is a nice and easy fix compared to mine just make sure to get an alignment when everything is done

I just recently bumped a curb going ever so slightly sideways as the road was turning but the car was not.. i bounced off the curb but when i stopped the car there were no visible signs of damage, not even any marks on the enkeis.. i drove it around a bit and everything feels fine.. is it possible that i may have messed something up?

 

10 mph my a$$.........

 

ouch! that hurt but at least it is not something major. I thought you mean the whole rear end is smashed

 

does anyone have feedback on my situation? 2 posts up
