Default Just got back from the body shop.

So I was driving to work about a month ago and ran over a driveshaft that fell off of a FedEx truck.

Which destroyed 2 of my wheels.

I got 4 new wheels out of it since the old ones were obsolete. I was driving 2012 Impala LTZ rental but nothing feels as good as being back in your own car.

They replaced 2 tires and if you notice the rocker panel/ground effects on the driver side was gone so they replaced that and did an alignment.

Nice rims!


FYI, there's a car meet tomorrow at the Hooters off of 20 and 183(starts around 8). I've been going out there the past few weeks since I've been working here in Cleburne.

I will have to make it out there sometime. I work nights and the wife is off on Thursdays so I don't get much sleepy time. Even if I made it there I would have to be in Richardson at 11pm for work.
