a couple pics of the vibe after a little curb hoppin last weekend. Nobody hurt but the vibe, I was by myself. I didn't quite navigate the corner good enough. I should have it back home by this coming Friday.

how fast were you going?>not quite sure about 40-50 mph maybe. the guys at the body shop said it doesn't take much with these cars something about the wait ratio to size personaly i think it is just the way it impacted.

Ouch. That must have been some impact on the curb.$500 sure doesn't sound bad compared to the $3800.
