Honda S2000 Curb Damage
I just wanted to post the damage my 2005 S2000 with 14k miles had after I hit a curb when shifting from 1st to 2nd at around 30 mph, not sure on that though. There was no body damage in terms of exterior but right rear wheel got hit hard, and was the only location that took damage.
Had to replace:
Rear Suspension cross member beam
Right lower control arm with adjust&front bolt
Right control arm
Right knuckle
Right ABS sensor
Right splash shield
Right bearing
Right hub assembly
Right Rotor
Right rear wheel and tire
The car was balanced and realigned.
Total around 4500 dollars.
Wanted to ask if anyone else had this type of damage before, and if it will have a big difference on handling/suspension. Nothing from the other three wheels seemed damaged even though those wheels went over curb; they must of jumped the curb since there was no rim damage on the other three wheels.
I want to track this car later and wanted to know if the car can still even after this type of damage. All the damage was mechanical to one wheel suspension. After driving the car with the repairs it seemed a little different, but haven't drove it enough to be firm on that; as well the old left rear tire is still on it while the right rear is brand new.
Basically want to see if anyone else had this similar damage and how the S2000 was after repairs.

If you go to Honda parts store online and look up parts under BODY then CROSS BEAM section for 2005 S2000, its the large rear piece which connects both sides of the suspension. It's the square piece not just a straight flat bar which is the cheap one.
The part number is:
50300-S2A-A02
Officially called "rear beam"
