Car hit a curb....

Hey everyone,

Quick update:

Didn't call insurance. It looks like the front tire isn't punctured but kind of came off the rim a little. Went to a really friendly mechanic, had the car towed to him for $140 (with "Dollies/Trollies?").

He said he is going to check the entire car and give me a list of things that need to be repaired.

Best case scenario he said he would fix the rims and repaint them black. Install a new fender and the bottom part. Fix my "alignment".

He said there might be a chance my suspension is screwed up since the steering wheel is titled.

Hopefully everything goes well... never ever in my life am I touching that traction control button again.

Thanks for all the help. Will update again with what needs to be fixed and how much he is charing.... maybe I can find parts here for cheaper.
