Here's the bad part....the part I hate. You spend your money and time building your car. You get it where you want then crap happens.
I lost my concentration twice, once 2 weeks ago and then tonight. Just washed the ride and took her around the block to air it out. I pull into my space and hit the curb. Scraped the heck out of my front lip and took a chunk out of my right front wheel. Good thing the lips aren't polished or it would look really bad. I just hope the car rides smooth. Too pissed to try it out.
I swore I'd never get another kit....but I did anyway and you have to baby it to care for it. The rear was scraped by an unknown driver and I've scraped the front twice and now I have curb rash on both front wheels.
More money. Times like this make me sick of driving modded.

 

Sorry hear bro.. but ***** happen so just learn from our mistakes.. GL

 

Ouch! Sorry to hear that.

I have rash on two of my wheels ... that awful scraping sound just makes me cringe.

 

Scraped my lip two days after it was installed.

 

I've had aftermarket wheels on every car I've owned and i ALWAYS end up rashing or bending them at some point. Luckily not so far on these. It's just part of the game of having a flashy car. The body kit I decided against, just because I know my dumb *** in some point will drive too far into a parking block.

 

i think i subconsciously curbed my lame 17" 10 spokes so that i'll finally get motivated to get 18" 5 spokes.

 

Totally sucks dude, I feel your pain. My last car looked great but was a huge pita to drive around slammed. I ended up curbing 2 of my wheels near the end and was very po'd over it. One of the reasons I opted against going with VR08 3pc wheels on this one, I just couldnt bare bending one on NYC streets or having to spend a G to replace one

 

I hear you man. I just got my car where I want it and messed up rolling 1 of my front fendor. Need less to say its in the shop now getting fixed. It always something.

 

i dont really care about my rims anymore,,,when i first got them first i was washin everyday but now its been like 3 months havent wash them,,,

 

Ah...sad. Hang in there man. It's just a car!

 

I feel you dude its more and more money but definatly hang in there its life shiet happens

 

LOL so often I read you post it cracked me up...

 

Yeah....I'm the drama king....and I like to tell stories.
As a kid I wanted to be a writer.

 

I saw somebody parked over a parking block that had some rebar sticking up out of it (somebody was super lazy installing that....)



It had ripped right through their whole bumper, and they just left the car like that apparently they didn't even notice? Guess they were in for a surprise.

 

my condolences I feel ur pain buddy I think dats why its takin me longer to actually get rims for my GS, I got 20's on my honda and its a real PITA, btu u gotta love the way it looks do like they say u gotta pay to play it cost to be the boss
