Today, my heart broke.

Along with my baby's front air dam.

I was making a U-turn just as I got to work this morning, and did not make the small curb that was sort of sticking out..
I misjudged and went just a tad little bit far to turn my car around ( I was actually trying to get into the driveway/sidewalk to turn my car around..) thought I could land right on the drive way, but hit the curb....IDIOT!

Fortunately, the only damage was done on my right side of the front air dam.
Sigh.. it doesn't look repaintable, plus BIG scratch on the right side. I might have to get a new one or maybe a new body kit.

For now, I'll just endure this pain and continue working on wheel and suspension set ups.
