GF just hit curb, broke corner of rim off - any other damage
She was going 15mph around a corner, hit the curb and broke a piece off the rim off her car. I took it for a spin, the alignment is jacked, stearing wheel is at a 45 deg angle.
What other damage am I lookin at guys?
SHE JUST HAD TO GO GET THAT DAMN XMAS CARD FOR THE NEIGHBOR DIDNT SHE

LOL, yall are taking this waayyyy overboard.
You're probably looking at a bent tie rod, and you'll need a new wheel. As that one is broken/bent....
It doesn't take much to get the alignment out of track, on any car. First things first, put the car up on jacks and eyeball it. Bring it to your Mechanic, and have him look at it quick.

And yet we have the higher insurance rates
I'd really be interested in seeing the stats that say men are worse drivers.... If I had a dollar for every time I've seen a girl on a cell phone doing something stupid... then well I'd have enough to pay for something expensive.
And I'm with ya erik.... my girl can't drive stick... and thats half the motivation to get a m6 on my next car haha.

took it today, they wouldnt even do an alignment, cause of the busted rim. Ordered that the day it happend, but they crawled under it and found the LCA was bent. Car is to new for aftermarket so I gotta pay OEM prices $~$300. And they wanted $250 to install it..no thanks, it will be a weekend project.
