Car Toasted
So was driving yesterday during rush hour when all the sudden my brakes didn't wanna stop the car. So needless to say I ran into the rearend of a tahoe. Luckily for me my car is super low so all I ruined was my radiator, headlights, and hood majorly. Minor things are that I gotta get the front end straightened back up and get a new bumper mount for the front. Oh and I broke my nose in the process of the accident too, so I'm in a little bit of pain in the head region. Going to the hospital soon to get that looked at.
Now I can rebuild my motor and I now have an excuse for my CF hood. Just sad to see that I gotta find a new car so soon.

I got 2Ga headlights and that white talon bumper here. Willing to sell lights for $30 and I already told you that you could get that bumper for free so $30 for both of them.

You had to go to jail? Why? Oh and you should probably see why your brakes failed.

Yeah I know I gotta get the brakes fixed first. The tahoe had minimal damage cause I hit the trailer hitch but I'll still have to replace their bumper. And total_eclipse thanks for the offer I will definately have to take that when I get my car back to work on it. Had to do jail cause I have a suspended lisence and didn't have insurance on the car. So now I'm really hosed for a long time but luckily for me I have the most amazing chick to help me get through all my troubles (she is my rock and keeps me sticking around and not just giving up on things). But will post pics once I get the car out of the tow lot and somewhere to work on it.

Yeah, not having a license and driving is never a good idea. My older brother did that for a while then got in huge trouble one night. I had to pick up his car because he went to jail. Integra gsr's are weak...
