**Found the google map of the street!**
In this pic, the red curb on the right is what I hit....in my defense, I thought it was straight. But I guess nothing in Studio City is, haha...
It happened at about 9pm on Sat. night. No real street lights, and on a 2 cul-de-sac street. I went right and it was a dead end, then I went to the left side and it was also a dead end. So I just backed straight up thinking I'd back into the opening of the street and POW! I hit that damn curb sticking out.
Thanks LA's city planners!
Yeah, I was in a hurry to get out after my "short cut" ended up being an expensive dead end.
YES!! JB Weld, i didn't even think of that!!
Haha!!
AND I was totally sober believe it or not.
Thanks, man! It's my clothing labels logo.
I'm looking into a set now.

when i first saw it i was hoping it was the pass. rear cause of that scuff on it.
so isnt this the second curb you eat?
seems like those wheels have been nothing but trouble,
ill take them off your hands for you.

thats actually pretty impressive, I did less damage to my old salad shooter in a totally different situation and i actually blew out both tires (one burley chipped and lost air)
Is your wheel supplier pretty close? thats a fast turn around.
^^^My old salad shooters looked identical to those pictured too but still held air for like 4 months on hard driving, dont know how. (1st camaro at age 17 totally different situation too)

Should be up and running by Monday.
My old rim is going to become a coffee table, lol. A sweet looking round coffee table.
I bent the **** out of one of my old C5 replicas on my Formula. I hit a curb, blew out both front tires, and bent my driver's front wheel. It wasn't one of my finer moments
