So I wrecked my Z tonight. Not bad, dont have pictures, but pretty much the suspension is trashed. I skipped a curb when I hit a slick spot on the road.

Anyway, anyone have a good shop they can recommend to me in the Manassas area? I have a 250 dollar deductable, and the insurance (progressive) company is going to call me tomorrow at 10 am.

A quick overview of the damage, the rear wheel is facing the ground (looks like it popped out at the joint, but might need a whole rear axle), the front drivers side front end sits lower than the passanger (which is odd since I hit the curb on the passangerside).

I want to use this as my chance for after market wheels/suspension. So I need some help here. Give some advice. Thanks!

 

Have the dealer fix it.

 

Well I got the shop info taken care of. So far I am very impressed with Progressive.

Anyone have the name/number of a traffic lawyer they want to recommend? I need to get this reckless knocked down a bit. Thanks!

 

you got nailed for reckless driving too?

 

Yea, the cop was hot, I think she was mad cause I wouldn't stop hitting on her. I was like 1k yards from my house too. Damn what a stupid night.

 

OH NO! Man .. that sucks! I'd have the dealer look it over to make sure ALL of the damadge is accounted for, then once you know what all is wrong, you can settle with your insurance company, buy parts, then buy the *fun* parts, and get her all fixed up. You may have to come out of pocket a bit... but it will be worth it.

Glad your OK.

Sucks that you got a ticket too.. insult to injury.

 

My advice is, get rid of it! From the way you described it, you could have some frame damage. It may be fixable, but it'll never drive the same way again. My $0.02

 

hey nowell, sorry to hear about that, atleast your alright man! i have stock suspension if you need it...the coilovers and springs....just a heads up if you need them i can let go of them to you if u need them for a minimal price...but good luck if you need anything let me know...
