My car after hitting a barrier on a off ramp ;(

My insurance company called me yesterday total damage 10,000$. Im getting Carbon fiber front splitters, BMW performance side skirts, and carbon fiber spoiler. By the time we got it the the shop all the oil was gone out the car think its the oil pan. As you can see in the pic there still alittle oil coming out even after we got to the body shop. I cant wait till the car is done two more weeks





Finally got my car back

How about driving lessons instead!

(Sorry, I couldn't resist giving you a hard time. I don't really mean that. Post more pics when it's back in one piece.)

Yeah, that'll do it. You're lucky it was only 10k damage and no one was hurt. When I was younger I did something similar and considering where it happened I'm amazed I didn't kill someone.

that is like almost 25% of what you have purchased the car as. If you consider the current deflation value it would cost about 35-40% of your car value to fix considering its been in an accident and reported to the insurance company.

Damn bro, the baby got hurt!

Whenever I go out really late at night, unless I'm quite awake, I don't bother driving. Too much risk of damage. If you can control urself with not drinking much, you might be ok but if you can't, don't bother :'(

$10,000 sounds about right. That's about how much my bill came out to after my car's encounter with a barrier...
