Did you say you were going 25 or 125?? I hate for you but a good shop can take care of it no problem. Hope it works out.

Och that really hurts. Sorry to see that. Must ask though how fast were you going? You had to hit it hard to do that.

hitting a curb was my very first accident within 30 minutes of driving a car for the first time.
I didn't fold the wheel over, I just bent the rim and had to replace the wheel.

So yeh, hope all goes well, I think you were goin pretty fast for that kind of damage. and maybe a few other things that happened "just right" for the results.

when i was doing the turn i was probably going 35-40 and when the car got out of control it hit the curb at approx 25mph and it was just a regular sidewalk curb..

That was no regular curb, that was a Mustang wheel killer curb.

damn i hope i wasent going that fast... when the cops came i couldnt remember how fast i was going but they estimated around 30-40. my car is at the mercury insurance repair/colision center, and this is the second time im going there... the first time my dads 03 accord got rear ended really bad!! and made it look like new... so hopefully they can make my mine look and drive like new again...


NO, NO, NO!

Do what you can to go to a REAL repair garage, not those losers!
I went to Insurance Collision Center because Mercury said to go there and because it was close to my work. What a mistake! They made about 10 mistakes on a near new car, including overspray, not putting the plastic cover back on the inside of the trunk, stains on my seats, created new rattles, etc, etc.
Go to a REAL repair shop or 2 for estimates. If you have a high deductible you might want to not even use your insurance, as your rates will go up. Mine did, even though it only cost them $100 after I paid the $1000 deductible. They paid for the GS35 rental though!
