my wonderful friend took my car for a spin around the parking lot without me knowing, driving like a maniac, and hit a curb so hard that my front left wheel is bent, and the front end is pushed back like 3 or 4 inches. you cant even open the driver's side door. i got it towed to a body shop and im sitting here waiting to hear to awful estimate. any guesses??? its a 2000 Jetta.

I hate to say this but major damage has taken place. A steel wheel is going to kill $60.-$80. for a factory replacement. $20.00 at a car recycling yard. The body and frame work will run in the thousands of dollars. I would honestly guess 3-5 grand if the frame has damage.

There is NO way of knowing until you take it to a repair shop and get an estimate. It does sound serious tho, especially with the wheel being pushed back. You friend should pay for the damage. Pops

I'm going to guess 3 to 4 thousand dollars. I hope your friend has car insurance. It should cover this. If not, if you have collision you can make a claim.

Time to tell your friend to pay up. This one is not going to be cheap.
