Wrecked my GTS yesterday
Hey guys....Ive been lurking on here for quite a while and love the site. I need some help from some of you that can steer me in the right direction. Yesterday, and 18 wheeler came into my lane and i was forced to jerk over and hit the retainer wall on the highway. I dont want to claim this on my insurance,but I would like to get the car fixed ASAP. I need to get a front HRE547 and rear 547 first of all. Can anyone direct me to somewhere I can get these? Second..I need the Drivers side exhaust cover...Can some one please direct me in that direction as well? All in all its not bad for smacking the sidewall at 80 mph...the hood is not broken thank god...just needs to be repainted...Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated

That sucks...sorry about what happened man...

Some advice -

Pancaking against a cement retaining wall at 80 is usually going to do more damage than a simple visual inspection will reveal...

Get your car inspected by a viper tech...

That sucks and V10 RCKT is right about the Viper tech. As for the body work, contact your nearest tuner, as they are usually more than willing to help out.

Even though I was going 80 mph...it was a very light brush up... I put my stock wheels on and took it to get it aligned...Everything came within specs, but once all the body work is done, I will be dropping it off at the dealer

If you just damaged the outer barrels on your HRE's you can ship them back and have new ones installed. That is the benefit of 3-piece wheels. Cost should be $2-300 per wheel.
