Well, i did the inevitable. Was going around a curve while it was wet out. slightly pressed brakes and did 2 full donuts. The whole time i was staying on road and was thinking whole time, stay on the road, stay on the road. But, ended up on side of the road. Hit a tree and foot wide fence pole. knocked both down. The car needs quarter panel, trunk, and spoiler. It would be totalled bc damage vs value of car but I'm not turning it into insurance bc i only have liability and it wouldn't do any good. After the wreck, after i got it uncaught from the pole, the car wouldn't go. So I found out that the quarter panel was snug on the driver side tire. Put spare on and drove home. The wheels are alright atleast, I could sell them

i took my car to my automotive vocational college class and put it on lift. found MORE damage, big dent on gas tank and one of the control arms was bent. but i did hammer out some of the quarter panel so i have clearance for my 17" wheel. also, i noticed today that my car actually doesn't have a quarter panel, its one huge piece all the way around, how would shop fix, cut damaged off, cut good piece off of junk celi, weld, grind, and then bondo? just guessing...seems pretty expensive, im working on getting 2nd job at best buy, I got interview in couple days
