Truwbelle!

took the front left into the fender and even so the tire is gone and the fender is bent.... the main problem is the suspention!!! pics soon but how much am I looking at? its a MY98 WRX and the tire is sitting on the body work...


Please... be gentle...

Its when theres a bubble in the tyre due to weakness in the tyre/ like when a basket ball gets a egg...\\\ egg/ bubble... its a weakness.

OUCH! At least $1500 to fix that. Plus the rims look a little shagged also.

New Front quarter panel... new struts, arms, links, bushes, mounts, sway bar, maybe top hat also.
