Broke my G =(

So i kinda spun out and went backwards into a median and my rear wheel is now sideways.... body damage is really just the mudguard.... but i need the bar that goes from the differential to the wheel.

I really don't want to go through insurance since some guy took a light last year hit me lied about it and no one was at fault...

ill post pics now.

ok so i got in there and saw what the actual damage is .....

THe picture below is not mine i am using is as refrence but both the black and silver suspension links in that picture i busted..

MILLION THANKS to Mike who was nice enough to get me a set of suspension links yesterday.

I still need the silver one which is the link that runs from behind the caliper towards the front of the car.

Anyone know any good parts places that might have this in stock?

also I dont know if that is the only thing wrong if your wheel is bent sideways...your axles could be out of wack as well...warped rotor...alot of that can only be seen if its really damage...the axle part you shoudl notice fairly quick but you will def need an alignment after re-installing them.

yeah If I were you I would either go ahead and go aftermarket if you plan on lowering the car...I think they would be fairly expensive from a dealer for an OEM Part like that..I have them both sitting in my garage since I have changed all the OEM Suspension parts on my car.


Is this better:

No it was the camber and toe arms as well as the seal on the cv joint boot.

I already have the camber arm thanks to Mike.

I need a Toe arm and the seal. I called around and i can get the toe arm for $70 dollars at south motors but no one has the seal it would be special order and take three days.... luckly its only 12 dollars.

I will take pics of the broken arm and the repairs as i do them today.
