Once again, I'm glad that you're okay .... I can't imagine hitting my head on something with the sunroof open ... that's crazy At least it looks like you can still salvage some things off the car.

Best of luck Rick

You had better get that tag frame. Wouldn't want just anybody pretending to be a Nupe. My wife is a Delta and I have seen her cut the symbols off of a broken umbrella before she put it in the trash.

Glad you are ok, that first picture of the car didn't look bad, but then you see the rest... damn!

Did VSC kick in at all? I sometimes get a fake sense of security with ABS, VSC and such, but it looks like those things may not help as much as I thought.
