Got in a wreck today :(

I feel for him cuz there are some of us out there that can't afford just to drop money into our cars and make them perfect. Some of us drive these cars everday and things like this are a huge blow to us. I know if it was me I would keep it and fix it cuz I'm blessed to have another vehicle but if I didn't I would probably have to do the same thing. So good luck man! Hopefully you find the money to fix this one or that you will find yourself in another teggy soon!

I don't think you're in any postion to call anyone a kid. Anyway, if that happened to me, which it won't, I routinely maintenance my vehicles to prevent s*** like this, I wouldn't come on the internet and expect condolences and sympathy from anyone. Only person to blame is him.
Actually, maning up and just paying WOULD be a direction to go in. And yes, yes i would shrug it off. s*** happens, you just gotta learn that it will always be that way.

I see the options as this:
1- Sit and b**** about how s***ty it is and buy a new car instead of fixing it.
2- Man up and fix it and be able to say "Yeah, I did that."
what the f*** are you trying to do? When I wrecked my RX8, I posted a thread about it with the 1 pic I took of it at the crash site, all I said was "I crashed my RX8 on Highway 17". That was it. And I got flamed, with some saying I was looking for sympathy, like wtf? I was just letting people know, hey, my 8 is probably going to be out for good. Hes doing the same, he'll get it fixed or get rid of it. And for a daily driver, is it worth it for him to try and fix it up while juggling his other s*** around, or just let someone else that actually had time to do that kinda s*** buy it? Probably that, and buy a car that is actually in one piece and he'll learn a lesson that ball joints are important

What the f*** do you mean when you say to man up? It wasnt like he was trying to do that. In my crash thread, they told me to man up to my mistake because they thought I was speeding and/or trying to drift, which I was NOT trying to do, but they refused to man up theirselves and believe me, but you know what, whatever, it didnt matter

And while I'm at it here, I've lost all, if any, respect for you after you said my LEDs and "cheap" bars were a waste of time in your little gay gas thread, that made me extremely unhappy, especially considering I never said s*** about your f***ing car. I dont give a s*** how long you've been here or your post count, that means NOTHING, I've got plenty of people to back me up, come at me

Keep It Clean
OP, stop street racing alone

just replace everything with better aftermarket parts
A full size passenger vehicle isn't an RC car, where you can wreck and upgrade using stronger after market parts. With unit-body cars with weak sub-frames, that car could possibly be worth shiit. The parts that bolt to the shell hold value. It can be saved, but it will never drive the same

this has me worried about my joints. should i replace? maintain them? if so how do i do that?
you should replace if there play or the boots is torn, checking you ball joints and tie rods isn't hard, just jack your front and move the rim up and down and side to side, if its not stiff that a dead give away it might break soon and sometimes your hear squeaking when you turn the steering, and if your not sure bring it to a professional

You can replace, but the axles/joints can run to the very bone, I still don't know how this happened because I just replaced my axles the day before.

Superhyped, i'd rep you if I could but that seems to be broken. And I'm not looking for sympathy, I'm just showing that the car is gone I don't have money to fix it, and I've had enough headaches this year. I don't want to drop another grand where it could be going to college. This is a car forum right? Wtf else would it be for?
