Really sorry to hear Ken. We all know sometimes things happen but it still does not suck any less when they do happen. Glad to hear you're OK though.

Dang, sorry to hear about the bad news Ken. Good news is that you're safe and nothing happened to your new wheels...it could've been a lot worse...I'm just glad to hear that you and whoever was in your car came out ok. Too bad we'll have to wait and see how your new wheels will look on the car.

That sucks! Glad you're ok, but I feel your GS' pain. I've had a couple of incidents like this on I95 in South Florida - one recently in my 2002 GS430. That incident involved a F150 too, going over a sheet of plywood, which came off the ground and wham, right into my front bumper and then underneath the car. So dinged-up bumper and busted-up plastic guard underneath, not to mention a bent radiator support. There's really nothing you can do but fix 'er up.

Sorry to see that.. that's really unfortunate..
My suggestion: vertex front (fiber material) -- better look, more aggressive, but risky

LXOGOOD, I am so sorry to hear about your accident.

Well, it could have been worse and thank god you were not hurt from the accident.

I'm sure the body shop will make it like new again!

Good luck!

Sorry to hear this one man, it really does suck. As others have mentioned, you have your very own signature kit, so you might as well stick to it!

Also, I am glad I am not the only one that was looking in the corners of the pics to get a view of the wheels!!!

Ken, this definitely could have been alot worse than it was. Thank god you are OK. Count your blessings.

Funny that Brendan mentioned the "F150 thing" since that was the truck that got pushed up over the back of my old GS by a semi.
