Agreed.

I any case, I do suspect this is an insurance "total" wreck. Damn lucky that the windshield frame is as strong as it is... Doesn't even look like the roll hoops came into play.

Between this and the numerous side-impact pix I've seen lately, I continue to be AMAZED at the integrity of the S2000 frame. What a great frikkin' car!

Just to let you know guys there was only that one section of ice slash left over snow in the shade (only what you saw in the pics). All the white you see is what jankemi said its left over road salt that kinda bleaches the roads white untill it rains and or snows agian.

Redbullet, I will see what happens tomorrow but i will repair that one, only if possible or i will again start my search for a new one definetly in Grand Prix White (the only color it should come in ) maybe a newer year and maybe with the all red interior. If i get a new one it will never see roads like the one i so stupidly took. But whats done is done and all i can do is be thankfull I'm fine and move on.
