Was driving tonight, at 25 mph around a 35 mph turn. there was a lot of water and mud, car spun, and hit a 14" high curb with the right front. a car then behind me spun and tapped the rear of my car.

From my basic guestimate, the car needs the following repairs..

New front suspension
new wheels
complete front bumper
rear bumper
entire paintjob
and perhaps the frame is bent.

The front right wheel points out to the right when the front left wheel is pointing straight.

Tried to file a police report about the mud and water in the road causing the accident, and was told basically to go F**K Myself by the police.

I am very upset. I will post pictures soon. From my guestimate, I'm looking at at least $5k in damages if not more.

The reason for the full paintjob. my car has a custom black metallic with blue flaked paintjob that cannot be matched by any means. I have already tried previously to get it matched by several places, using very expensive computer color matchers and looking through every factory paint manual for every model and make of car produced in the last 20 years.

So basically since I need to replace several things, I was thinking the following...

Bilstein sport shocks, sportline bushings and sway bar, AMG Body Kit (since I need a new front and rear bumper anyway), Fresh JET Black Paintjob, 17" AMG Wheels (Since I need new wheels with the hit that front wheel took, and my wheels are discontinued, they are irreplacable with the same ones).

If The Frame has bent, I am hoping it is easily repairable, otherwise my ins co might decide to total it, in which case I am clueless as to the outcome.

I am hoping for the least amount of repairs.

Tonight has been a very bad night. my house's Water Heater exploded as well, flooding my basement with about 12" of water.

I am so upset and shaky right now, I just can't relax.

These are soem pics of the front. note the sway bar and its bushing, the bad metal scrape on the front arm, the mangled tire, the shock has some slight bends in it. The front right fender is bent in byt he bumper a bit too. not the wheel pointing out to the right...
