Out of Comission

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 12:46 PM

I'm out of comission, went through a corner and it was sharper than I thought, tried to correct, but hit a patch of gravel and slid into a nicely sized rock last night. Popped my radiator, screwed up my bumper, left front fender, hood, left headlight, and radiator support brace.

'lilRedRide · 08-02-2009, 01:30 PM

Four days, is that some kind of record maybe?

Fix it!

Parts are cheap, turning a wrench is easy.

haha, first thing that popped into my head.

kung fu jesus · 08-02-2009, 02:07 PM

emmi can fix all that in about 30 minutes in an autozone parking lot. he'll do it for a 16oz redbull and a pack of virginia slims.

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 04:04 PM

Already on it. I'll be back, mark my words.

Milhouse · 08-02-2009, 04:07 PM

Got any pics of the carnage?

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 05:54 PM

It was too dark for any pictures to show up. I moved the rock about 2 feet and there were paint chips and coolant and plastic bits everywhere.

kung fu jesus · 08-02-2009, 07:04 PM

i have the light and the radiator.

the hood looks fine.

LostSoulMiata · 08-02-2009, 07:56 PM

That'll buff out

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 08:03 PM

How much do you want for them?

It looks ok, but I think it got bent. It might just look that way cause everything else is bent

kung fu jesus · 08-02-2009, 08:18 PM

$10

i can bring them to kinod next friday.

kung fu jesus · 08-02-2009, 08:19 PM

your hood is a little bent ut i think you can flatten it out CAREFULLY after everything else is replaced.

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 08:20 PM

Each?

What's the address? I've never been. My brother always leaves me behind :/

kung fu jesus · 08-02-2009, 08:24 PM

$10 for everything.

look for the kinod events in the city of industry.

i'm in southern orange county. it's not worth shipping it to you.

Sparticus3 · 08-02-2009, 08:27 PM

Ok, got it. Thanks, I appreciate it.

Sparticus3 · 08-03-2009, 07:24 PM

So I've got an update.
I just took it into a shop in Riverside that supposedly does great work. The AC compressor is shot and the power steering hoses are gone(the whole system might need work) Maybe I'll just go manual

I'll know more by tomorrow.

Sparticus3 · 08-03-2009, 07:39 PM

It's kinda hard to see, but that hose I'm holding tore completely through.

The camera wasn't tilted, that's the bumper/radiator.

Ham · 08-03-2009, 08:01 PM

Wow those are some clean ass daisys.

Milhouse · 08-03-2009, 08:01 PM

Just put a band-aid over the gaping hole in the bumper. Chicks dig scars.

Milhouse · 08-03-2009, 10:23 PM

Just tell everyone that you kicked Ken Block's ass in a Miata and he got so pissed that he ran his Impreza into your car in spite.

Lt. Dan · 08-03-2009, 10:34 PM

Less pictures, more work putting it back together!!!

Hahaha, i'll do that.

^^I'm workin on it. I figure as long as it's getting work done, now would be the time to put some springs, shocks, and rims on it.

Positive attitudes help when trying to cope with a loss like this.

It'll be back together sooner than you think... I hope.

Sparticus3 · 08-04-2009, 12:54 AM

Haha, thanks. It'll prolly be done in a week or so.
