just say NO to trees

not sure how many of you check the florida forums so figured id post up here. i dont want to be the guy who disappears after this so heres the pics.

was coming home from the bars last night around 2am. getting off the off ramp, i was going pretty hot into a left hand turn i always take. guy waiting at the turn has a stop sign but was inching. i guess he thought i had to stop to which i dont. he started going and i hit the brakes just as i was turning. slid the car into the grass and trees stopped me from hitting the overpass. i just remember braking, then hitting. guess he didnt stop but i got out and looked around, car started so i just drove it home. parked it in the garage and checked it out this morning. insurance is covering it under my $500 deductible. its at the body shop waiting on the adjuster but so far its looking pretty totaled. oh and the airbags never went off? got an altima rental though wee.

sighcakes.

k so here are the pics. they're from my new phone - 3mp camera. think they turned out all right.

so this was 2 weeks ago in miami. actually didnt have any pics after i put the lip/homemade diffuser on last week.



thought i lost the bumper but its actually under the car...lol? i kept the pieces we tore off as souvenirs.





didnt even REALIZE this part til i pulled it out this morning. guess car spun after first hit?









can barely see it but i hit so hard, it snapped part of my license plate frame. have to remember to grab the plates when i go back.



heres the path i took through the grass



tree that broke my fall. or i broke it. theres the lip/diffuser i had on for all of a week.



you can see i really took it out. guess the 1 on the right is what i hit with the side.



luckily this was the ONLY damage i got. scrape on the thumb and its sore like i popped it.



and this is what im looking at LOL.
