I just ran over a curb wow. Looking for shop suggestion
So both of my wheels on the passenger side got messed up and my rear bumper got torn up after going over a curb I didnt see. This is the worst mistake I've ever made. The sound was so bad and loud. I definitely want to get the bottom part checked out on my dayoff.
The damage also took a small chunk out of my tire.
Does anyone know a shop that will checkout everything for me in Orange County/LA County area for a good price and tell me whats wrong with the car? I don't want to go to the stealership. Will greatly appreciate the feedback.
The outer lip is bent and i can feel a vibrate past 80 mph but my wheels need balancing aswell so I dont know. Also anything else to look into?
