Can someone please help I fishtailed and hit a curb I have questions

[ManyfordsnoMustang]

The GT is my get down and dirty car... here’s real stuck up one...

I kind of skimmed over the obvious solution, sorry. No one likes spending money we don't have to, especially when self-inflicted and even more so on one of our pampered cars. Sometimes you just have do do what needs to be done. My wife's fusion was hit 3 times, twice by other people and once when one daughter was trying to park it in our side parkway and the 100 year old elm tree moved on her :-) Point being the car has been in the body shop 3 times in the last year and you would never know it, and the car rides like its new- its well taken care of. But that last incident killed me since it was out of pocket. UGH.

Which brings me to the obvious solution, sell me that bad@ss car above cheap, you will have your cash to repair the Mustang and I will feel good helping you out. That car is gorgeous! I take that is a stock color. Never seen one in person that color.

I have. I own 2 businesses and rely on Google tremendously.

I'm sure you do.

I would take it to an alignment shop and have them do the repairs (other than wheels). If you use a dealer or insurance company the Carfax will indicate a repair for a crash. Between the insurance deductible, possible higher rates, diminished value from the Carfax, dealer prices for parts, etc.. better off using an alignment shop that won't report it do the repairs. As others mentioned, you can find used, even like new, wheels for sale cheap.

Yes everything I have has a price tag but just got it paid off so going to cherish it awhile. The factory color is called Black Rose Metallic.

What was ur incident looks nowhere near bad as mine

I'm sure you do.

Makes a huge difference my guys competed a large Landscape job the other day and she said she went with us because of the sheer number of 5 star reviews but it wasn't the only factor. Also I agree there are many companies who take advantage of the review system and have friends or family make up good reviews. It's frustrating for sure

Everyone on her trippin!!! Damn that’s gonna be $$$$$, bent this bent that. My Local shop did a front end alignment and call it a day. Fine! Some ppl take the smallest thing to a worse care scenario. Someone even said the damn k member could be off....lol. The rim is ugly yes, but I don’t give a shit about that I’ll touch it up. Car drives fine and it’s just a car.

Wow. What a douche bag response. You ask for worst case so people gave you worst case. And cobra jet was just telling you to cover all your bases by checking the k member. You gave vague info and shitty pics to boot. Maybe learn how to look at your own shit and how to fix instead of asking others for their opinion

Good luck, suspension/wheel impacts can add up quickly so definitely get the preliminary estimate but dont rule out insurance if cost is extensive. Some policies have accident forgiveness so you can get the repair done at no expense to your future rates. As for any reporting, insurance companies dont report to carfax, there will be a claim history that will be visable if an insurance history is ran but that is not something many dealers use. Now in my experience a lot of service shops/dealers DO report to carfax so you will want to insure its only reported as service. Good luck!

PP1 wheels are inexpensive. An alignment check is an out of pocket item.

Been there when I was younger. Be on the lookout for any squeezing sounds. When I had an 06 I ended up putting a tiny bend in my rear axle. Squeeked constantly until replaced. Possible that you could have some half shaft damage as well. Just food for thought
