I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

DA9's Teg VS. Cement Curb of Doom (**UPDATED W/ PICS**)

Post by DA 9_Chinga » January 16, 2004

So tonight i was on my way back from my girlfriend's house taking it nice and slow to insure nothing bad would happen. Im almost home now, i pull into my housing development and im going like 7 or 8mph, i go to turn down my street and out of know where my car just starts to drift around the corner (this is also a slight down slope) so im sliding for like 3 seconds ( the longest 3 seconds ever for me) im now going about 11mph, then BOOM, SMASH, CRACK! The worst sounds i have ever heard. I get out of my car only to see my bumper in this dude lawn, curb, under my car, and smashed into the inside of my left fender. I now see im missing the whole front left side of my bumper from the license plate to the left fender, the whole bottom is smashed back ( tow hook, splash gaurd, some other metal crap that is bent back at like a -120 deg. angle, and other crap i cant really see. It looks like the front left corner of my oil pan is dented in but it is not leaking so that is one major relief, the #1 best relief was to see my just recently installed JDM one-peice headlights were untuched without a sratch or crack. Also smashed the bottom left bumper signal, smashed the window washed fluid container and im not sure body wise since its too dark to see. If I have school tomarrow I put it up on the lift (take pics) and check to see what other damage i have. I am ok but the Integra looks like SHIT!. I will upload pics as soon as I take them. I hate snow/ice with 0 deg. weather.
