On accident... YIKES!

I was horsing around and took a corner too fast :bang:

I tried to correct the steering once it started getting squirmy on me and with a big grin on my face i thought i got her almost all straightened out but the wheels hit some unexpected traction and sent me a couple feet to the right off the road. Of course once I'm in the grass I had no control over the car so I slid for about 30 feet into some hardcore bushes!!! I had to get a friend to go get some rope and pull me out with his dodge ram.

I have a picture from my phone (so its not that great) I'll have it uploaded within ten minutes or so so keep on checkin.

Anyways, while my friend was trying to pull me out something flew out from under my car and i have no clue what it is... i'll post a pic of that in a few minutes as well.


Hold tight, stangnet
 
lol, calm down heres some pics: (i'll upload the picture of that mystery piece that snapped off once i find where i put the piece)

thats the bad camera phone picture, but u can get the idea. Th hardest part about getting it out was probably untangling all the vines that had decided to wrap themselves around my pass side mirror. My pass side window was down too so i got plenty of vines/leaves inside my interior thati 'll have to clean up lol

and in unrelated news, after i got the car home and washed it, here are my new 5.0 emblems i just smacked on:

lol, thanks for the advice bosko.

Green GT, idk what that piece was or where it went... i can't find where i put it. My gut instinct is that its not a piece of my car but its just some random tube that got kicked out when i was spinning the tires trying to reverse... just some junk that happened to be on the ground before i crashed there.


but like i said, i'll post a pic of it once i find where i put it.

What do you guys think of the 5.0 badges?
 
Nice Stang but I wouldnt have put those badges on a sn95 even though it's a 5.0.


just not a fan of how they look? or is there some sort of personal reason i'm missing

The five-0 badges are way cooler than the stock ones... but I say no badges looks way better....

yeah i cruised around with no badges for a while, i kept telling myself i'd get those stupid holes filled but got lazy; once i saw that the 5.0 badges were adhesive i figured i'd give it a shot and i'm pretty happy with the results. thanks for the compliment btw
