Default Heart wrenching...

Everytime I look at these my heart sinks a little.






It'll buff out... and actually it's gonna be. Pretty expensive buff though $8400 in damage! Complete rear subframe + suspension components changed out, steering rack replaced, rear bumper and lip are damaged.

These are the heart wrenches though... *Warning, not for the faint of heart*



















Wheel 1




Wheel 2








So Wheel's America looked at these and said they can be fixed. $139 per wheel? Guess I'll give it a go.

Dont use wheels america! I use them for work for cheap wheels and they can barely get them right. Go to Sports Car Tire in Del for Volks, they fix high end wheels.

That sucks, I just had the same thing happen to me just a couple weeks ago. I decided to pay out of pocket and its only going to cost me 4000.. it seems like you're getting bent over on this one (must be going through insurance?)

I needed my rear end to be put into a frame puller, new tails, all new bumper assembly, buff out front and rear wheels, buff the lower part of my fron lip, trunk adjustment straighten out my HKS exhaust, and a couple other misc. things....I feel like I goe a great deal.
