This weekend, om my very birthday, I did somthing really stupid... I drove a little bit to fast ( at least to fast for the turn I was about to make ), and I accidentley drove up on the edgy sidewalk........

At first I was afraid the whole car was crashed but the only thing visible that came out from this is a big "scratch-hole" at my front right rim.

The car is also turning a little bit to the right, but to be honest I think it did before this happend aswell... ( I only have had the car for 2 weeks now ).
And maby its to little to even bother...

But my question is...
What do I have to do now?
or.. what is recommended?
Do I have to turn my car in for (I dont know the right word for it.. but mabye someone have to check that the measurments are correct? so that the tires dont run out to fast....? )

The rim is taken care of real cheap... so thats not a problem...
Im more concerned about the car, and wheeling, and steering... and things like that...

Pls help!

B rgrds! / R

 

where is jonkoping? (lol im an idiot "Sweden", needa learn to read)

gratz on your new car, and first accident ^o^

 

Thanx a lot!!
I love this car...
I will upload some pics l8r aswell...

Jonkoping is a city in SWEDEN!

 

Have the alignment checked, that will tell you a lot about how the car has been effected by your mishap.

 

I know this a really big jerk thing to say but....familiarize yourself with the car before trying anything crazy

but get the alignment checked for sure

 

Alright! Just called a guy, so now I´ve got an alignmentcheck booked in thurs.

Is it stupid do drive the car before thurs? I mean...can I damage the car just by driving it once or twice before going there on thurs?

Its looking to damn nice just standing in the garage... ( except the front right rim which almost makes me cry... ...... )

 

If its out of alignment just a little, driving a bit wont hurt it. Maybe your tires might wear a tad but as long as its low milage and low MPH you should be fine.

 

Post some pics and lets us see how the damage looks, then we can give a better answer to if you can/should drive it or not.

 

NP, since you are right....but the good thing is that I´ve learned what NOT to do... =)

 

Oki... give me 20 min and I´ll be back with some pics... thanx!

 

give it to me...

 

Ditto. If it's an 06, give me the charcoal grey Z rear strut bar cover and if you're in Sweden, you should have the 1 red rear bumper light. I want that too.
Take it easy man. This is a very powerful car. You gotta be careful.

 

it looks like this.... =(

 

lol...

 

I bet you just watched The Fast and the Furious 2 before the accident.

 

lol.... btw its an -04 car =)

Careful is my middlename from now... I´m serious... even thou it really wasnt such a big deal.. I felt really bad about it... and my girlfriend...sittning next to me.. got a little scared... so from now.. more careful I will be...

 

Would really like to hear your opinion!

 

Damn, You werent lying about hitting a curb, thats no curb rash! That rim is toasted. Goodluck in the future!

 

IMO id drive it slowly and not far. worst case scenario your tire will deflate and you will scratch a rim that is trash. Take it slow when you drive it until you get it fixed.

 

post some pictures of your girfriend... he he...
