Mine's bent, but nowhere near that bad

It's just been too ****** cold to replace it with the one i have sitting in my closet.

Re: (Everyones Hero)

well i recently found out that curbs dont like my car very much. hence the mugen wheels (check sig)

i was taking a right turn, NORMALLY going like 30-35 and for some odd reason my car couldn't handle it i guess? i can take right turns at like 40 with no problem. my tires were probably cold along with the weather, but i was driving for a while...but i shoulda taken that turn without a problem....eh oh well **** happens
