Some crazy girl in a suv decided to come into my lane and see how strong my clear bra was. Clear Bra did great but the car not so much.

The car is a loss. The pass side frame rail is bent and drivers side crushed. The whole drivers side is pushed back to where both left doors are near touching. No one got hurt and I have to say the GS is a pretty solid car. It sucks but these things happen.

Just a little sarcasm.

So this is covered by clear bra right?

The hard part is figuring out what to replace it with. I am thinking a benz but am not sure yet. There is a blue GS4 for sale thats local that has cought my eye.

On a side note. For you young people out there. Its fun to go fast but there is a time and place. You can't control the road conditions or what pops up around the corner. I would have never been hit if the young girl that hit me was using her head and driving within her limits. She was going to fast for the road conditions and could of really hurt someone. Be safe out there.

I was going about 10 and she was doing atleast 35. The roads were snow covered and it was in a long turn. Instead of making the turn she slammed on the breaks and went strait into me. Just too much speed and not enough experience behind the wheel.

The clear bra still looks great.
