so this really sucks! yea i was dropping this chick off at her house when all of a sudden the freaking car started hydroplaning! i was like ohhh shittt! me don't like! even worse there was a curve coming up and it didn't look nice. so we ended up hydroplaning into the curve. the front left tire took most of the impact cause it hit the curb first then the front right went up and eventually we were on the curb. it was like a median with a four foot patch of grass! so i was like f**k! so we drove off the curve and i got out to see what happened. look at the pics! i ended changing the tire and putting on the donut which took like 10 min and then i dropped her off.

so i was wondering what you guys think the damage and how much roughly it would cost! oh and also for some reason my steering wheel is straight along with the left tire but the right side is like off(looks like it turning). i know i got to order the left control arms in front? if thats what they are called?
Thanks Guys and Gals!

Here Some Pics :(










it will rest till tomorrow ! hopefully its not that serious! maybe see if i locate the arms!

that happened to me once, I had to replace the lower control arm and then take it for alignment. Other than that, just fit the bezel back in and get a new fender.

Looks like you will need lower control arm and you probably tweeked the tie rod. In one pic it looks like your swaybar mount is either unbolted or broken away from the body. you could probably find used parts for under 200 to fix. If you need a tie rod, dont buy a used one.

That sucks, but keep in mind that it's not the curb's fualt, nexen tire's aren't exaclty all weather tires, or even wet weather tires, and i though people didn't really have a risk or hydroplaning below 45mph, but then again i go back to the crappy tires.
