Out of all fairness... It was no doubt my fault, BUT dont park your rig in the apex of a horse shoe hairpin turn to throw snow balls! ~dots

A few things:




Metal Twister was able to fix the hood. This wreck is the reason I met him thanks to LovesDunes.





This was the cause:


This weld remind you of  crispy snack food?



The damage was mostly cosmetic except lights, windshield, and a brake disk.

LovesDunes designed me a new wing and light bar set-up. I brought it all to MetalTwister and got this back, including a new wing trunk, curved windshield frame(not easy to make), roof, fixed hood, light rack, and misc fixes:

BTW: I was testing these LED lights that were on top of the light bar. They took the full weight of the car and only had minor cooling fin  damage on the back side:

yessir!

I had the unbroken wheel exray'ed at the welds. "Excessive porosity", aka piss-poor welds was the result. With that data their insurance company called me.
