Default Wrecked the S

Moral of the story... don't drink and drive.
I didn't think I had drank that much and was havin a little too much fun on a windy road and lost the rear. Ended up backwards plowin into little trees and shrubs. I'm sure the tire shine on my tires didn't help either. And apparently there were wet patches on the road. Didn't remember it raining though.

Total damage (estimate):
-a couple dents on quarter panel where the right tail light connects
-a busted right ap1 tail light
-rear bumper not aligned
-rear took hook cover gone
-busted (needs replacing) front right fender
-scratched hood
-front bumper not aligned and scratched

I honestly don't know if I should feel sorry for you or not.

Dude, be careful. Drinking and driving is never cool. If you *think* you 'didn't have that much', you've had too much. I'd consider you lucky. Learn from this PLEASE. I lost a good friend last year, he was drinking and driving. Two weeks before his 21st birthday. Call a friend or family member. Your car will be ok until morning. <3

That's about $8,000 in damage. If insurance is covering, that's great. Whichever God you believe in, he's the man because you're lucky nobody was hurt. The worst part is, you don't get your S for a month.
