Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

i could have been worse, take all the sheet metal off and see if everything is still straight, get new parts.


slow down in the fall when wet leaves are on the street.

I have a family friend I will work for at a service shop, he sent pics to his auto body guy, and we are gonna try to work something or other out.

His daughter has crashed her mustang 3 times and she is 17 lol
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

The inner bumper support looks ok. Maybe good latch could be ok. New hood. Bumper. Fender. With the fender off wheel might turn again
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

There wasn't anything constricting the wheel from what I saw, something must have cracked.
 


Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

i bet the tie rods busted, or the rack pulled apart, could need a new lca, or strut, it dont look all that bad.

id work on the mechanical part first, then worry about the body.
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

^ ^ ^ True, get it moving then worry about making it look good. Insurance is a good thing too, it should help out. Honestly it doesn't look that bad. Like Monkey said, new hood, bumper and fender and you'd have the bodywork probably covered....to me the door looks fine, doubt it really messed anything up too bad. As far as the steering issue I'd not get your drawers in a bundle yet, it's probably something simple.
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Tie rod ends and I'm pretty sure tie rods are cheap as hell.
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

That sucks...wet leaves are a bastard.. take what you can from the experiance, both good and bad, and learn from it.
 


Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

Sucks you smacked up your car... I did enjoy your 35-80mph video. Well the soundtrack anyway, I'm a huge Coheed fan.
 
Re: What'd Hippo Break Now...? Oh His Entire Front End!

That was nice GP you had there, really sucks you smashed the front end. Upgrade to GTP :)
