    Black Ice

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I was out last night and was going around a turn when I hit some black ice (atleast i think it was). It caused me to lose control and sent me into a spin, which resulted in me running into the curb on the other side of the street. The passenger side rear tire took the brunt of the hit, and as a result is sitting at a weird angle. Can you guys take a look at the pics, and let me know what you think the damage is and what its going to cost..thanks




    hopefully you can see what I'm talking about from the pics..if not I'll take some more

    if you cant see them on here take a look at them on my profile http://www.audizine.com/forum/member.php?u=29582
