Default ACCIDENT - Help

Hey guys...well I guess my luck ran out today. It was raining out and I was driving around a curve I have taken dozens of times and I slid into the curb. I dont know the complete damage yet. but the car isnt drivable. The whole front driver side wheel is pushed to the back of the fender, the torsion bar might be F***ed, not sure yet. The place we got it towed to has a contact that has used parts for my 04 SXT, pretty much anything I might need hopefully, but they dont have a Front Driver Side Aluminum 7 spoke wheel (you know the ones) if anybody local (Westminster, MD 21157) can help me out with the wheel situation please let me know.

Im also hoping my K&N Intake wasnt damaged but idk yet. I felt the filter and filter sock was disconected from the pipe, but I couldn't actually look at the intake

haha no way...my dad would drop me from his insurance and being a college student I cant really afford the $488.92 <b>per month</b> insurance payments on an SRT-4, and that was the lowest quote I got.

I am expecting the damage estimate to be about $3,000

And if he's in college...chances are he is under 25. Under 25 + single + male = you get raped on insurance whether your driving record is clean or not. Not to mention it is a high risk car.

Man by the way you worded the title I thought you hit another car or they hit you. Thats good that your not hurt and you didnt hit anyone. Time to start checking those junk yards for a wheel.
