Slow Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 I'm sure you've guys experienced road rage before but yesterday gave me a whole different meaning to it. http://i.imgur.com/qOzlsDx.jpg http://i.imgur.com/L9lWjN6.jpg Some guy vacationing from Bulgarian slammed into me with his rental car after he thought I cut him off. He aimed at my passenger door and hit me with enough force to cave in my fender and toe out my wheel. Unfortunately my girlfriend was in the passenger side of the car and she is experiencing pain from the incident. Police said they couldn't do anything with no witnesses because none of the cars behind us stopped. I will look into legal action as this could only be considered assault with a deadly weapon but as I believe he isn't a US citizen, I don't know what can be done.

magnusonsubie Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Wtf that's crazy! I've never seen anyone with that much rage. It really surprises me that the police couldn't do anything. 2005 Vader Wagon Material Tests on Ringland Failure Piston I should have held off and purchased a wagon instead of the spec.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slow Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) So a quick update: My girlfriend is recovering now and I can turn my focus to getting the car fixed and pressing charges. I brought the car to my buddy to get checked out and it appears most of the suspension components on the passenger side need to be replaced. The coilover is bent, I'll need to replace my inner and outer tie rods + control arm, and the steering rack is possibly damaged (STI Rack swap anyone?). Then comes the hassle of having to get my car re-wrapped. Depending on the payment I get from the supplemental claim, fender flares and some other upgrades might go on the car while it's getting wrapped. If anybody knows, do the tie rods for the 2015 STI rack have to be trimmed for sure? Or is it mostly a direct bolt on? I read different things from Underdog's thread. Who knows, I might get out ahead on this one car wise. The stark reality that someone attacked us with their car is what troubles me the most.

I am afraid to go any more on the front fenders do to the paint cracking and the fenders looking wack. I kinda dig the squat for now but need lower in the front for sure.

Baggedlgt Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Subscribed.. For the guys with a decent amount of rear camber what setup are you running? I know it's not really the right thread I just don't wanna get flamed in some suspension thread. Posted this picture before but this is what I'm up against http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20161006/2db3d2c7e1ddfc7a022f36352f48fdfd.jpg Lots of great looking cars in the first thread and in here.
