Ok guys, I feel sooo stupid. But I should. So yeah tonight I was getting on the highway and moved into a lane to quick and lost controle. I did a 180* and hit the sidewall of the highway(front end facing oncomeing trafic). Suspension guys!!! do it. And tires!!! Boy I learned my lesson. Pluss I need to learn to drive better

. Ok so the radiater is shot which is fine. But I'm not too sure on the frame. The whole side of the car is mushed. Should I have a colission guy look at it or what? I don't want to put money into it if it's going to have to have the frame worked on. So any input is really needed. Also I'm in the Dallas/Fortworth area in Texas if ya know of a good shop. I just bought the car too and I have oil I haven't put in it yet. So I guess it back on the bike for now until I get the car goin. Thanks a lot guys.

Haha thx. I have another question. I looked at the car today and I noticed that the rear wheel was angled in and not strait with the car. What could it be? I don't mind putting money back into it to get it going again cuz I don't want to be riding my motorcycle all winter :eek . I know I might have to take the wheel off to see what it could be. Also I can get a radiator for $107 at AutoZone. Is that too much? I kinda need one in like a day or so cuz they might tow my car if it sits there too long.

muchos gracies

yeah, that sounds about right for a radiator... as far as the wheel being bent in, that could be the control arm, or the knuckle that is bent.

ok thanks bro. I'll probably get the radiater and drive it home if I can and then take a look at it.

OMG Ryan, you know if Ultra was looking at this thread rgiht now he'd be like "THANK YOU! I'VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL THESE BITCHES THAT!...remember kids, driving skills first!"

Oh and strider85. good luck with your car man. hate to hear stuff like that. and 107 is a good price (I sale Honda parts everyday so my opinion is valid)
