yo I just curbed my stock for the first time to last week

you should have seen me.....wearing all white in like 3 inch heels and my hands just covered in black gunk from touching it because I couldnt believe I did it,tears running down my face....

it was horrible....dumb *** drivers in their big *** expeditions


and I called my dealer, the shop they sent me to said 250 to fix it....I am just going to buy a new rear stock for cheaper then that and have a brand new one, use the one with curb rash as my spare......

speaking of which....does anyone know if a stock 19 will fit back there under the mat where the normal spare tire goes? I would love to keep a 19 for my spare when I throw my wheels on in a few weeks

I curbed one of my 19s like a week after I bought the car..."sick to my stomach" was an understatement. I'm over it now...I'll get some new rims in a year or so.

AAClaire420 - you're on NT, huh? haha...
