hi guys:
today i did someting stupid, but everyone has prolly done it at one point, i accidently drove over one of those concrete blocks they put in parking lots to seperate the spots, i bottomed out, i wasn't going fast, i was just starting, i checked the oil pan and no leaks, the alignment seems alright, no odd noises, anything else u guys can think of that i should check, my car is not lowered at all

thanks

i know this is bad but i bottom out probably at least twice a month, it scares the crap out of me, but nothing ever seems damaged. the plastic plate under the car is torn to shreds though.

i had tht problem b4...yeah coasters rite...those bumps just jumps rite in front of ya

the biggest problem is figuring out if i should go back out or just go through it so it just hits my muffler instead
...i backed out...no problem though..and just one spectator a few meters away

I only did that once but I made it count. I was taking my gf home from skating in her chevy wagon and I forgot that there was a big log in front of where I parked and gunned it. Well I got stuck on the middle of the log and had to have my friends push me over. Needless to say that was a little embarassing, but the car was fine.

thanks alot guys, yaeh i decided to go straight over it rather than back out, i fiqured there is less expensive stuff at the back of the car, i put a nice dent in my muffler though, oh well an excuse to buy myself a catback system now :D

Yeah, I'd say check for leaks and suspension. You should be alright though.

my car drags on the ground half the time its on the street it seems. nice scrapes aaaalllll over the bottom but never touched the oil pan or muffler (cherrybomb) but my tip.... thats another story....looks like someone when after it with 36 grit sandpaper on the bottom
