ironically enough i was gonna hold off on driving it till i got new all seasons next week. but decided to get my haircut before seeing my family for thanksgiving.

dunno what i was thinking, they don't care if i look like a transient. heh.

anyways, here are the pics.

one of the radiator fans got pushed back too, it's now rubbing against one of my intercooler hoses. makes a damn aweful noise.

can't wait to get this thing fixed.

 

dented the left side of my i/c too. you can kind of see it here. alot of glare though.

 

Dude, that sucks!!! I'm feeling for ya!

 

damn.. sorry to hear bout it.. but no one was hurt thats the most important

 

Sorry to hear about your car....I was just out today in about 2 inches of snow..and ice, and the car performed fantastic.

I just bought four new Hankook W300 tires from www.tires.com (Discount tires). They are like cheap blizzaks. They are working great.

 

Ouch! Sorry to hear about this. Might as well do some upgrading on the intercooler while your fixing it. Well try and have a nice turkey day! you should also tell them you had hid's in the headlights when they replace them

 

kind of what i was thinking. as long as i am fixing, i might as well be upgrading too.

how's the new baby jer?

 

yea perfect time to start modding. The baby is doing great, i can't complain one bit. altho i havn't started my car in over 2 weeks. been driving the truck around. kinda missing just driving.

 

i am thinking of taking it to this body shop down the street from me (liotus and winter).

but i don't know if there is any mechanical damage. obviously the intercooler has a nice dent, and my radiator has some dents in the back side from hitting my exhaust heat shield. but it doesn't look like anything got punctured or is broken beyond being usable (i hope).

so i am not sure if i will just take it to the body shop, or have it towed back to biondi to have them look over the mechanics as well. guess i will find out when i call my insurance company tommorow.

 

at least i can take solace in the fact that i am certainly not the first, and definately won't be the last, to wreck an evo in low traction conditions.

 

man those damn evo intercoolers are like 400 bucs used i got lucky and picked mine up for 92 bucs good luck my friend owns liotus they do good work

 

hope everyone had a great thanksgiving!!!!

 

my family has been taking their cars there for quite some time. i think my brother even plays hockey with the owners son.

think they will do intercoolers and new radiators?

guess i will find out tommorow.

 

nothin hard about the intercooler and radiator i dotn see why not your intercooler pipes might be bent, is ur intercooler still facing right?
