Wrecked my first car

[gmtech]

Last night on my way home, hit it a little too hard w/ the worn rubbers & spun into a curb:(. Never wrecked a car before & man do i feel like an a$$. One bent wheel, blown tire & front bumper cover mutillated. Tore it apart last night (2AM). No structural damage luckily, shes on stands for now. Ill get the wheel sent out for repair monday, found a tire on ebay for cheap & in the process of finding a bumper. Fogs, grille, corners & headlights all ok. Man do i feel stupid:o. Ill treat her to a full detail after all the repairs.

Take it as a learning experience and repair the beast. It appears they are built to take this kind of abuse just to protect it's passengers. Another Panther protecting it's owner.

People who ride motorcycles believe the old adage that there's only 2 kinds of riders,those who've laid a bike down and those who haven't yet.
Same thing with performance cars,look at race car drivers and see how many times they've wrecked.
The main thing is the only damage was to your ego and some tin ,plastic and rubber,no one was injured and that's the most important thing!

Thanks for the kind words guys, it goes a long ways. She will be better soon. Been working all day on the issues.

It's better bruised than totaled! I'm glad to hear everything is working out for you!

I lmost did that the other morning, remembered to lift my foot off the fas though, and the fact that it was a wide intersection helped me out.
