I'd like to know if there are any more updates

Couldn't anyone run their car up onto a curb and then claim it was the car's fault??? Not saying I don't believe you, but with the current climate of car-electronics-bashing it does seem convenient that the damage was caused by the car and not the driver...

I didn't really read this, i dont know how old the OP is but he could of just hit it around a turn and spun in a circle and caused the damage shown... And out of the momment decided to use this as an excuse to make himself feel better.. my apologies if thats not the case but it's just how I feel about this.

Im hard pressed to believe what was said to happened, happened.. but im in for updates

:iagree:

Sorry to say it, but I too agree with Chuck and Eric. The damage appears to be the result of the "VDC" being turned off going around the corner and the gas pedal pressed real hard for effect.............. Now all that has to be done is to convince the insurance company that it was the same problem that is going on with the Toyota's. Which by the way is another questionable situation. Fifteen minutes of fame I believe it is called..!

Just my
:twocents:

Wait where the hell did you get sport rays for $1k? Did they include tires and TPMS?

Also, in for updates.

If by "a lot" you mean nothing then yes. I haven't found any sport rays being sold, much less for $1K in a while. Is there some site other than this one where people post used 370z parts?

I don't know. If i had any inkling that what happened was my fault in this situation, i wouldn't go post it on a forum to make myself feel better. I think that the OP honestly believes what happened was an issue with the car and wanted to warn people on this forum of what happened, not to lie and make up some far fetched story so he can sleep better.
