So I just wrecked my car...

I was comming home from work today and took a corner a lil too fast and I just slide off the road wrecking my whole front end and denting my rim. My whole front is messed up and one of my fenders.

I am hopein that this is all that was done, car runs fine, didn't do anything past cosmetic by the looks. My car pulls to the left way hard but I am sure it's out of alignment after jumpin the curb, lol.

Anyone know about how much this is going to cost me? I'll need the front left fender (hopefully can get cheap at a junkyard), the whole front nose, and a front skirt. The paint we'll see...I am not counting that in yet, haha.

If anyone has any of these parts lemme know, definatly in the market to pick em up.

I'll have pics up soon so you can see the sad damage .

one of the metal supports on a power pole and a telecomunications box ( they are 30k to replace.....looked to be in decent shape so lets hope).

I don't need a hood, it didn't hurt that. just front left fender , the whole front bumper, and front grd fx.

will have pics up later, have work :-P.

You didn't wreck your car, you scraped it up.

Northern Utah. I dunno how fast I was goin, but normal for normal weather, it was rainin andh ad been for a whole week. caught the water wrong and just slid. I noticed my other fender is bent to (on the front rigth side diggin into the mud and hittin the box) and there is a dent, or bend (not sure which yet) on the bottom of my passanger side pillar behind the fender and hood. There is no metal touchin it so I doubt anything came back and hit it. I am hopin it was already there but I doubt it, I think I would have noticed it. I'll get a pic of this also tomorrow when I begin to work on it.

With the kink, bend, dent, whatever there, any ideas on what's f*cked when I take everything off?

probably gonna need a new impact bar... check your radiator core support for it being straight, also that your frame rails didnt get bent up at all...
