Here's what happened, I was driving down the street minding my own business when someone swerved into my lane and caused me to swerve. I swerved head-on into a median (She/he didn't hit me). Note: I had put on brand-new catless headers from JDL the night before . The driver drove off before I got any information and I was stuck there with the responding officers.

I have taken my car to the shop and it seems that the curb has torn up my bumper, pushed my radiator back, popped the driver-side tire, bent my brand-new headers, etc. I don't fully know what the damage is but we are hoping that the frame isn't bent.

All I can say is that this is the easiest way to get a bumper deleted.

UPDATE: 14k in repairs. Frame Bent.

Thank you. I'm perfectly fine but regret not getting a dashcam. You never think that this sh*t would happen only 6 months into owning a new car. I was planning on getting a dashcam but felt like it was not needed. But I am going to get one on every car I ever own. Also kinda sucks that my insurance will shoot through the roof with me only being 16.

Damn, here I was proud of myself for buying my BRZ at 18. How did you manage to get your hands on a GR86 at 16?

My father bought it but I will be paying him back 10k. It helps when you have friends that own dealerships and will get you a car for MSRP.

Hey it's me, your childhood best friend. Remember that one time you said you owed me big-time?

I like that you're at least purchasing part of the vehicle - big departure from today's mostly worthless youths

Dash cam is a must. You never know what can happen and especially nowadays with how shity people can be, most will lie and try to put the blame on you.

Say what you will, but I did not say all. In fact I know many youths that don't fit that description. You know where the ignore button is mf, I suggest you fo & use it.
