I was being a dumbass... I went around a U-turn too fast and caught a hell of a lot of understeer... basically slammed the curb, bent the axle and popped it out of socket... F'd up my wheel too 
Holy crap, I was looking at the pics like what is he talking about? Accident? Then I saw the wheel and said "OH EM GEE" Good luck dude, I hope you get her back on the road soon!
The pics on the tow truck remind of me of when my cousin broke his axel in the airport. He nearly cried as the car was being pulled up to the flat bed because the front bumper was scrapping.
Just a small story, but good luck fixing it man.

Well some of the photos are slightly "enhanced" lol, but yeah I do use a lot of wax, Black Magic FTW! 
And the car is now back in my posession, got it back on friday. They replaced my shock, control arm, axle, and something else in there. I still have to get my new wheel in, that'll probably be in sometime this week. I'm just happy to have my baby back though
last week was hell.

Thanks for the compliments guys 
I think an 08 with blue calipers would look sick
As for pics of the rear... I had some on my old comp before it crashed... I'll try to take a few more when it comes back from the shop... got into a bit of an accident...
That last shot brings a tear to my eye

Looking good my man! You know the same people who like center peices gone also say words like "fly" or "dope" lmao, just kidding with ya bro. How did you remove the center peice? I really want to do that to my car. I'm kind of sad that I changed my hood it needs some work, plus I really wanted it to be a sleeper with the swap I am doing

haha yeah those guys are douchebags
The center piece I actually didn't take out... my car didn't come with a wing from the factory, So I bought the spoiler from a shop off ebay and they sell them with or without the center piece. Man I think your hood looks awesome, It really made me want to get one
What kind of swap are you thinking of doing?

I am doing a 4G64 swap, eventually I'll need to do AWD swap to be able to deal with all the extra power. The hood just doesn't make my car look like stock as possible, plus it needs a little work before it'll look nice the hood went through the ringer

wow nice, So you're gonna pick up an engine from an eclipse or are you gonna get a crate 4G64? I've heard those swaps can really run up a bill too... how much do you think all that's gonna cost ya? Plus pulling an AWD swap? You'd be a legend on this site, cause there's a lot of talk about stuff like that, but so far I don't think anyone has really done it. but hey man, shoot for the stars
