CLK 320
Curb + CLK = :(

Rear subframe bent, Front and Rear wheels bent, shock bent, pretty much all the damn suspension parts up front are bent. I just turned a lil sharp and went up on the handicap ramp which pulled the rear wheel into the curb pretty hard. Lucky for me I've not had a moving accident since 98. Still sucks *****.

I did the same thing last week, State Farms initial estimate is over $5,000. The only body work is replacing the 500/ AMG front spoiler. Broke tie rods etc..
