Default Kick me please

I feel like I wanna kick myself .The other night I sort of misjudged a curb in a parking lot and messed up my radiator and condenser. Luckily that was all except the bottom of the front bumper was only scratched up a little .After some searching I was able to get the best price from Radiator hotline at Radiator.com .Since I was buying both the radiator is $185 and the condenser is $140. The brand is Visteon which is an OEM replacement made to the exact specs as original except for the Ford logo . Did I do right by not going with the ford dealer ?

That sucks man, hope it doesnt cost too much to fix! But I have to question why you didnt stop when you heard or felt the bumper hit the curb, I mean if ya went far enough to take out both the condenser and radiator? Kinda sounds like something I wouldve done a couple years ago before I calmed down a lil[8D]

Well I was going about 5 mph and I slightly misjudged the curb which was sticking out farther than I realized.As soon as I heard a crunch I stopped but the damage was done.
