Default Snow Slide Crash

Yup sucks. Slid into curb at work smacked the wheel on a curb and the fence hit my bumper. Or the other way around.

Parked for now alignments out.

So big chunk out of a wheel. DAMNIT! Rolling the '99 malibu.

i didnt run into a curb, but i slid on snow/ice and ground my wheel and tire parallel on the curb ... now im really contemplating taking them off, sanding them down, self etching primer, flat black, flat clear ... and having my car completely murdered out ... my chrome is completely worn out from 5+ winters/ salt

thoughts ?

dont know whose car this is ... and im not trying to steal the pic, but i forgot where i found it ... and i have for sure never seen a monteSS like it ..
