See that is what I thought too but they kept telling me they couldn't do it! Really kinda pissed me off, oh well though I need it in good driving condition since I will be driving it from North Dakota to Texas in June. They called today and said it was done so guess I get to see what the damage is when I get back in town Friday.

- Thu Apr 05, 2012 6:51 am #301015 Well just had the worst night! After getting everything suspension wise done on my car, all painted up and looking like I want it, so months of work ton of man hours all to be destroyed by some punk ass kid in a matter of seconds! :x

I was running 75 down a two lane highway when all of a sudden a pair of headlights come up on me like I am sitting still! So I look to the passing lane and nope can't go there, there's a car in that lane, and these lights are getting closer so I try to go to the shoulder but not quick enough. I get rear ended at 75 pushed down the road and then sent into a spin at 75, thank god my car is as low as it was or I think I would have flipped. He tags me again as we are spinning in the passenger side collapsing the door and blowing out the window on me and a buddy, putting us into the median.

After checking myself out I found that he hit us so hard it broke the back off my seat. After looking around the car we found about a 2 foot gash in the passenger door. Best part about it the kid said he was only goin 80 in a 07 impala. DON'T THINK SO! Cops said we spun for about 100 yards down the highway

Really pissed my car got destroyed, I will try to post pictures tomorrow. Wish there was some way to have them just fix it and not total it! That would be sweet!!!!!

- Thu Apr 05, 2012 9:36 pm #301057 I would sue the crap out of that kid and his family for damages. And 80 if your were doing 75 and you hit hard enough for the window to break out and the seat to be broke sounds like he was doing a full out top speed run in that thing.

Sucks to hear man let us know what happens.
