The curb strikes again!

that's too bad. but it could've been worse. i hit a curb once HARD after trying to avoid a car accident.

all the damage was contained to the passenger side drivetrain..

tore the cv boot,
cracked axle,
bent hub assembly and control arm,
broke wheel bearing and lug 'stud'?
steering spindle
bent caliper and mount, smashed rotor
blown strut, not to mention a crushed rim.

i might be forgeting something but you get the idea.. my wallet took a hard hit too! haha

it put me back a little financially but i couldnt imagine losing my celica to a garage, yard, or some dip that wouldn't appreciate it.
