SAD day
rain and rear wheel drive dont mix too well at 3 in the morning 
my poor S got bitch slapped by the curb.... no body damage but the back right wheel was tilted in at a 45 degree angle... does anybody know what all can be wrong back there? im jus tryin to figure how much its goin to cost. Im claiming it on my insurance but should i get it all replaced w/ OEM parts or do they give u enough money to put aftermarket on there?? i dont really know how the hole insurance thing works.... any tips accepted!!
NEW PIC AT HONDA... still together tho.. kinda

This Happened to a friend of mine.
Killed his control arm... I believe it cost 5-600 to repair, Plus the rim he curbed to hell, but That doesnt have to be fixed at the time.

Similar thing happened to my ITR. It was about $2500 when it was all done. Control arms and a few other suspension pieces and 2 rims at $300 a pop.
Get an estimate and see what needs to be replaced..if it is something easy maybe you can do it yourself then get it aligned. That's what I should have done.

Re: SAD day (IheartHondas)
Wow, that exact thing happened to me like 2 weeks ago. I had mine for only 6 days before i did it... I cracked the rim, tire was screwed, control arm was bent, rotor cracked, rotor plate bent, some other arm im not sure what its called was bent. Luckily I found the Rings on the end of the axle at the crash site, so i didnt need to replace that. All in all, I think I spent about 900$ not including s/h.. That isnt including tires either. The rear tire on this damn car is almost as much as the stock rim I have to replace. =| Im still waiting for the parts to come in and every time i see some punk kid in a bs modded civic/del sol i start to cry because I cant slap him =\
