2008 335i RIP Alpine White Because I attempted to Boardslide a Curb at 45 mph PICS UP
So basically was driving and through a nice curvy road spirited driving, and *an animal jumped out in front of me so had to swerve* to much wheel spin exiting a corner resulting in a oversteering SOB 180'd it and decided to fold the right front and rear wheels under the car.
Car went right rear tire first into the curb following with the front right. Here are the pictures. Based on what BMW said they will most likely total it. As it probably has rear sub frame damage and everything is basically broken. My right rear wheel has 25 degrees of positive camber if that tells u anything ! lol No one was hurt my passenger and myself are fine! How ever my beautiful VMR 710's are destroyed. But I will say they are super durable I can't believe it didn't do more damage to the wheels. I found pieces of lower control arm and other various parts laying upon the road. Exhaust still in perfect condition thank god! I will post pics momentarily. Not a lot of body damage, and the pictures do not do it justice, its really so much worse than it looks, but the both my front right and left wheels are pigeon toed. They thinking 15-20K in damage. Everything drivetrain related is F---ed and I had active steering so I'm sure thats 2500. Last edited by stealth-twntrbo; 03-27-2012 at 12:55 PM.. |

That sounds awful, but the most important thing is that you're unharmed. Good luck OP!

The pics don't justify the damage and how hard the impact was. The body damage was cracked front fender, rear quarter panel around gas tank, lower side skirt. But when the car was in the air the entire suspension was junk on the right side. Also the left rear is also all screwed up.
Best picture is about the 3rd one down during the day looking along side of the car you can see how jacked the right rear is compared to the front. |
